I need torque specs
Hello everyone! I have an issue. Just replaced the head gasket on my Craftsman T2500, engine 33R877 0002 151228ZD. Now before tightening the bolts, I need some foot pounds info. As I have found conflicting info. I pulled up the check chart, didnt see my engine listed. Found a website called: engine specs: It listed the head bolt torque as 18.5 foot pounds I pulled up the Briggs manual 276 781, 331800 engine...its saying I need 220 foot pounds for the head bolts. Seems like a lot considering the head and block are both aluminum. Advice? suggestions? Please help! Craig

You sure it didn’t say 220 inch pounds? Which would be almost 18.5 ft pounds when converted.

Okay so that’s in inch pounds and 25nm is newton meters. Both are almost 18.5 ft pounds when converted

Sooo, you don't have spark???
Pull the plug, connect to the spark plug wire and ground to the head.
Crank the engine over and visually look for spark at the plug.
Advise..

Does it have a spark? Spark plug wet or dry?

If you have spark, spray some carb cleaner/ starting fluid down the carb throat and try to start. If it kicks off momentarily, you know it's a fueling issue. If it has a fuel solenoid under the carb, when you turn the key to run, can you "feel" the solenoid have a slight "click"? . .

A new issue b4 I continue with the turning over process
The spring connecting to the throttle popped off. Trying it get it re-attached. I heard a pop, but can not find what came off.

If the solenoid is working, would there be fuel in the filter?

My mind jumps around, so please bare with me, as I ponder both situations. I have not forgotten the turning over issue.

Even if the solenoid is broke/seized up, the bowl will STILL GET FUEL.
The solenoid cuts off fuel from the bowl TO THE MAIN JET (when 12 volts are lost to it).
So turning the key on, should energize it, OPENING IT, so the engine WILL get fuel..
