My Honda fg100 tiller is not turning. I have rebuilt the transmission and also replaced clutch, still no turning. Need help.

    i have a honda FG201 which is another small tiller like yours, I suggest you check and adjust the cable adjuster that engages the clutch on the FG 201. When you pull the "brake handle" on the right handlebar it should engage the clutch if too loose little or nothing happens, as you take the slack up the engine should start to turn the tines. I was too late and bought a clutch when i found that out. The cable adjuster is on the cable near the top of the right wellington boot in the photo. hopefully the photo loads. if not follow the cable down from the right handle bar and you'll find the adjuster

Not worked on too many of these, however it would suggest there is either wear in the screw shaft, or the crown wheel, you should also check the bushes the screw shaft runs in, if there is excessive wear the gears will not mesh properly.

SOURCE: Honda FG100 Tiller - Tines wont move

I took the transmission apart and the gears were fine. The friction pads on the centrifugal clutch don't seem to make full contact with the drum. Does anyone know what the thickness of the friction pads are suppose to be? I used some belt dressing on the pads and got some movement on the tines. With no wear on the gears, I guess I'll be replacing the clutch.

SOURCE: need specs.for Honda rototiller motor

Hello
The valve clearance is 0.08 for intake valve and 0.11 for exhaust valve . To do the timing you have to remove the spark plug and set the piston at top dead center (all the way up) and on the cam pulley you have a mark (like a triangle) that you have to align with the fan cover bolt hole . Hope this help

SOURCE: Honda FG100 tiller will not prime, filter replaced

Well if the unit has fuel than it should prime unless the primer bulb is damaged and unable to force air/gas through the line. This is definetly a fuel issue, I would remove both the line from the tank to the carb and carb to engine and clean them thoroughly.

When you press the bulb the carb should shoot gas from the unit when disconnected. If this isn't happening your clog is here. If it does eject gasoline than your clog is the clear line which sometimes collects sediment if the gas is poluted.

SOURCE: i have a honda mini-tiller

The clutch is centrifugal - 2 shoes are flown out when the revs go up. Here are the parts
http://www.planopower.com/store/honda/fg100.shtml
You just remove the command cables on the carburetor ant take out the 4 studs that secure the motor to the transmission to access the clutch pads - the drum is attached to the transmission shaft.
If you discover that it's the shaft that is broken here's the schematics for it

Is the clutch on Honda FG-100 directional ?

no
it is a centrifugal clutch which means that spinning in either direction will force the bob weights out against the cover

My Honda FG100 tiller's tines spin when not in the dirt but as soon as I put them in the dirt they stop. What could be wrong with it?

My guess is the clutch shoes bite enough to turn when unloaded but slip when loaded. Try www.hondalawnparts.com for a view of the parts. You will need your chassis number off the machine label as there are several versions of the FG100. A good handyperson/home mechanic should be able to change these / establish the fault. Parts are at your local Honda garden agent or online.

If the motor will accelerate, does it sound like there is a load on the motor? If the motor accelerates easy and does not seem to be under a load you may have a problem with the clutch. Are you getting power thru the clutch to the gearbox?

Honda tiller starts, but blades won't move. Oil is fine, no weird smells.

If this is fg100 model could be worn out clutch or broken parts in transmission.

Motor runs but the tines want turn

Either the clutch is gone or the transmission gear is stripped. These need to be properly greased annually so that this happens less. The transmission replacement can be done but the dealer will charge you about what you paid for it ($250) or if you know someone handy they can order the parts here: http://www.planopower.com/store/honda/fg100.shtml and rebuild it for you. It would cost about $85 for a full transmission rebuild.

Good luck.

I need a worm wheel for a Honda minitiller FG100.

You can buy parts for this from www.petessmallengine.com
I had to replace the tine shaft w/worm wheel assy. This is usually the weak point in the transmission. The worm is made out of brass.
