    honda hr215 hxa

    It doesn't look like it's made for a single cylinder four stroke engine based on the choices. This is identical to the one I use. I've had mine for 20 years and it works on 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines. https://www.amazon.com/Oregon-42-423-Replacement-Wireless-Tachometer/dp/B0018TYB66

    3rd generation to use a late 1980's Honda HRC216HXA commercial hydrostatic self proppelled mower and I need a trans seal.

    Thanks... sounds like you've got a great Mustang project on your hands. Adding the 302 and T5 will make a night and day difference - great choice. Thanks for the info on your parts source. I will check them out. Not sure on the cost for machine work as I haven't bored a block in years, but $20...

    honda hr215 hxa

    You'll need to purchase a single cylinder tachometer in order to accurately read the low and high rpm's. A quick search on Amazon brought up many choices with different price ranges. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=single+cylinder+tachometer&ref=nb_sb_noss

    honda hr215 hxa

    If the engine is cold when I engage the blade it does the same as you are describing. I try to let it warm up for a couple of minutes and sometimes engage the blade and press for the choke at the same time - it helps for me. I'm attaching an adjustment sheet for these engines. Look at the top...

    HR-195. 3-speed transmission issue.

    It's a right-hand thread - same as the other one you removed. It may require a big vise grip on the axle from the underside to hold it and a 3/8 breaker bar for leverage to loosen the bolt. Hopefully you don't break it off. The sliding gear may be worn from being misadjusted and trying to...

    James, The '65/'66 is a true classic. What color is it? 289 or 200 six? Coupe or fastback? Mine is a little newer... It's a 2015 LE 50th Anniversary #1326 out of 1964. She is wimbledon white with a manual trans. Sorry no pics of the Honda atm. -Brian

    3rd generation to use a late 1980's Honda HRC216HXA commercial hydrostatic self proppelled mower and I need a trans seal.

    James, No problem. I think when your HRC finally calls it quits you should buy a new HRC and use the old one for parts. Not much on these have changed through the years. I know a lot of people like your dad who run equipment with no maintenance. I was talking with my neighbor the other day and...

    3rd generation to use a late 1980's Honda HRC216HXA commercial hydrostatic self proppelled mower and I need a trans seal.

    Honda's are a great machine. My HR215K1HXA has been faithfully serviced each year (15 years now) and runs like it did new. I change oil 2X year, replace the plug and air filter every other year. The trans gets pulled, drained, and refilled every other year plus lube the rear wheel cogs and axle...
