Whoops they didn’t add

Hi all, I don’t normally ask this since I usually know model numbers etc etc.. but I recently got a snapper 28 inch hi vac that I believe had an 11.5 intek with a pull start/electric start combo. I’m unsure of what model number this is as the sticker has been removed by the previous owner. I...

If I was to find another intek of similar hp would I have to change anything for a direct swap? The biggest thing I worry about is mounting the friction disk drive to the output shaft, are those most a universal size ?

Yeah, I figured the flakes being in there were a bad sign, maybe a good repower swap in the future. I can’t recall if it has the cast iron sleeve or not though.

Hi, I'm usually pretty able to fix and maintain my lawn mowers, but I bought a 38 inch bolens 15.5hp brigs mower that the person said would start but not stay running. I thought that as normal they just had a clogged air filter or something simple... Thus far I've replaced the Air filter...
