How do you change the glow plugs on a Mitsubishi 2.8 tdi?

Fairly straightforward to change the tdi glow plugs. They are located on the near side of the engine and the first thing to do is give them a good airblast to remove any debris and stop it falling into the glow plug hole after you've remove the plugs. Next loosen the top nut on each glow plug and slide away the connecting bar. Remove the plugs the same as you would spark plugs (ie with an appropriate size socket) and replace them with new plugs. Make sure top nuts have enough space to slide the connecting bar back into place - tighten holding nuts. Job done.

Why won't your Briggs stratton start?

That's a tough question as there can be many of reasons WHY a small engine such as a Briggs & Stratton wont start. The usual problem on most small engine's such as this is a dirty carburetor meaning the fuel jets in the carburetor are clogged. Eaither that or if it is a diaphragm type carburetor, the diaphragm which acts as a fuel pump on small engine's gets hard because gasoline, expecially todays gasoline with the harsh E-10 and alcohol additives, eventually dry's this out to nothing short of the similar stiffness of cardboard, thus no longer can pump fuel. That is only one reason why a small engine wont start but 90% of the time, it is carburetor trouble.

Another symptom can be a bad spark plug, a bad ignition condencer (engine dating pre-1985) causing a weak spark or in the case of an electronic ignition engine, (newer than 1985) a bad ignition coil.

If you have hit something hard and/or the engine has taken an immidiate shock and died, you may also have a sheared flywheel key which will throw ignition timing off thus creating a "no start" situation. All above symptoms are easily repaired though if you are mechanically, somewhat mechanically inclined or even a fast learner.

How about dirty fuel? I am trying to get my daughter's lawn mower running with a 6.5 HP B&S engine. She didn't run the engine dry last year and there was a combination of varnishy gas, water and gum in the float bowl.

After cleaning everything up, it would start, but not run and then quit starting. I removed the spark plug and it still smells like varnish so I will drain the tank anew and put in new fuel.

Next step is to drain the tank anew and replace with clean fuel.
