what sparkplug type

2 answers
Dave
Dave

The original plug is a Champion RC12YA with the outline of the Briggs and Stratton logo on the white ceramic. A replacement is NGK6130 BCPR5ES. Side by side the dimensions are identical. Long and skinny type. Some mowers have short and stocky plugs. In case you need blades, Bunnings sell the genuine replacements in pairs for 18"/460mm 780558. referred to as Quad Cut Disc Blades. Plastic bag has pictures and instructions on rear. Other than plug and blades, you need to be quite paranoid about cleanliness of air cleaner foam element. Just saturate dirty foam with cheap spray detergent, squeeze out and wash a couple of times, let dry and recharge with thin engine or sewing machine oil. Keep an eye on colour of engine oil in mower and when dirty, change. Bunnings also sell oil extraction kits which are easy to use. Just pump old oil out and refill with new oil while mower just sits on ground. At end of extraction, just tilt engine to one side to collect last of old oil and plastic hose will be able to suck out last of the dirty stuff. Don't overfill. Check tightness on all bolts and off you go for another cutting season.

Hi, I have a masport 470 4 stroke and it's leaking oil from the muffler how do I repair.

2 answers
Dave
Dave

Make sure the leak is isolated to near exhaust/engine body as oil can leak from top of oil filler pipe if the cap is not really tight. Happened to me once just after I had changed oil and the cap came loose whilst I was mowing. If you look at RHS from rear, the oil filler pipe is just behind the muffler/exhaust and any escaping oil can spread down the RHS including exhaust area. Quite scary when first seen. Switch off mower and check oil level as you may have lost a fair bit. Oil top up is cheaper than a new engine.

Oil coming out of the exhaust is usually due to ovefilling the engine oil or because it's been tipped on it's side. It is critical not to overfill mower engines or excessively tilt them. Cheers

how do you attach the mulcher to the 470 masport

1 answer
Dave
Dave

Lift up rear flap, insert mulcher piece from rear with thick part on right in first then straighten up inside opening so that front edge is as forward as possible pushed against inside with two holding clips pointed towards rear of mower. The two plastic clips (part of mulcher body) then simply clip over rear steel bar running the width of the opening with flap. The mulched particles appear to exit from front left underneath. Also, ensure height setting is within parameters for mulching. Sticker on side shows which depth of cut is recommended for mulching.

Masport 470 only mulches when I pull it backwards. Changed the blades took it to mower shop still not mulching

1 answer
Dave
Dave

Do you have plastic mulching insert fitted from rear of mower. Lift up flap, insert mulcher insert with thick side in first on right, then straighten up so that two black clips at rear of mulcher attachment clip over parallel bar at rear. Very tight fit but no movement which is what you need. Mulched particles seem to exit front left from underneath. Not only do you have to select a height setting within parameters marked but you also have to have mulcher insert fitted. Easy, Peazie!

Hey Gavin have you checked your spark plug? Pull it out and give it a clean with a wire brush sometimes dirty or worn or old spark plugs can cause this. Could also be time for a service if this is the case mate. Cheers
