Hello,
This is my first post. If I do mistakes, please apologize me for that. I've been doing a lot of research to find answers to my mower problem, but didn't succeed yet. Tried the search option but didn't find what I was looking for, so there it is.
I have a Honda HRA214 that I bought in 2000. ( it came with our house :smile: ) It always runned very well and still is. But this is the problem. When I start the engine, everything's fine. If the engine is still cold a bit and I engage the blade for the first time when I begin mowing, everything's still fine. When the engine is normal hot, maybe after 3-4 minutes of mowing, if I stop the blade for any reason, when I re-engage the blade, The mower shakes, and make several ''klonking'' noise for a few seconds and then everything goes back to normal until I release the blade and have to re-engage it again. It doesn't make any difference if I turn off the engine or not. If it is still hot, everytime I re-engage the blade, it will do this.
My concern is that it's getting worst after each time I use it. Now I'm afraid to use it and permanently damage something, like the engine for exemple. It's sometime difficult to explain a precise problem like this so, I made a short video on youtube for you to watch and hear it. Hope it helps me solve this thing before it's too late. My lawn is getting looooong.... :ashamed:
The link to the video is : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxRU...r#action=share
Just copy and paste the link in your browser, I guess. Hope it works.
Before sending this post, I checked everything I could possibly check to find the problem by myself but, no success. So here is the small list of what I've done:
1- Oil level_____ checked
2- Air filter_____ Cleaned and checked
3- Blade bolt____checked. Well tightened.
4- Blade area____ checked and cleaned. There is no dried and old grass there anymore.
5- Spark plug____ Checked. cleaned and gap checked. was ok.
6- valve clearance____ checked. That was a little tricky. It was my first time. I removed the cylinder head cover, engine cold. Checked the clearance and the inlet (first one up...) valve value was 0.08 mm and the exhaust valve was 0.013 mm (the one under the first one). There was engine oil all around the bottom of this area. Don't know if this is normal but I guess yes..) The manual shop tells me that the value should be this:

Hope somebody can help me with that. Thanks !
