Welcome to Steve's Small Engine Saloon!

Steve here...welcome to my website. When I'm not working as a small engine repair tech or hanging out with my family, I am busy producing HOW TO small engine repair videos.  Nowadays it seems everyone would rather buy new equipment when something goes wrong, but for those of you who like to get your hands dirty and simply fix perfectly usable equipment, my videos are for you!!

Check out my video series on all types of problem solving techniques for chainsaws, lawn mowers, ride on mowers, blowers, grass trimmers and more.  Plus check out some of my fun videos from contests, product reviews to video guests.  I even blow up an engine or two.

My goal is simple…. I want to SAVE YOU TIME, FRUSTRATION AND MOST IMPORTANT, MONEY!

LIVE Q&A

Stay tuned for Steve's next Live Q&A
