I just acquired a Tecumseh Mod. LV195EA engine from an old 'White' mower. The engine is free, (can be turned over) and I'm wondering if they are a worthy engine to mess with. It is a SPEC: 362048C Engine Family 5TPXS.1951BC Rated (by Tecumseh) at 6.75 HP.. 195cc... Any idiosyncrasies with...

Recently I repowered a Troy-Bilt tiller with a Predator engine from Harbor Freight. It ran great for about half an hour and then devoured it's front (towards the engine) belt!! I had ordered Kevlar belts for it from "Off Road Belts". The rear belt (towards the tiller end) seems fine. Evidently...

OK you guys, you talked me into it! I disassembled the transaxle (Original P/N 618-04381A) and pulled off the top half of the housing. Man oh man is it ever a mess! The crack in the right hand axel end of the top housing is pretty bad and will require a talented welder to repair it. (That...

It will start when gas is dribbled into the cylinder or carburetor mouth, but will only run until that tiny amount of fuel is consumed. I suspect I have a carburetor problem. Can anyone...
