Did LB make their own engines? Or were they made for them? I thought for some reason, that the 4.5 4-stroke on mine was a Tecumseh. I don't know where I got that Idea from......there's no badging on it at all, other than 'Lawn Boy' on the fan shroud. The badging that stuck out in my mind (that I mentioned in my oither thread) was off the Kawasaki on my JD. It's really simmilar to the Kaw, come to think of it........other than it's a flathead.......
Thanks in advance - she needs rings bad, and I wanna do a rering/gasket job on it before I install it on the new deck.......:smile: Thiink I found them......still no info on who made the engine, though.
Also, after looking at parts lists, I see there is a plate that goes under the blade - a 'mulching plate'. Since I am not going to be mulching, does it matter if I don't have this part? I just wondered if this piece is part of the overall design of the deck, and side-discharge performance would be affected in it's absence.
