Howdy all!!
From Kansas..have a little over 1 acre that I mow.
Property is 10 acres..all prairie hay except for where
the home is. Bought a dixon 361 ztr back in 92'..been
an outstanding mower. The briggs and stratton 12 hp
engine is showing signs of giving up the ghost..So
I've been researching engines..Briggs and Stratton engines
from 10 to 19 hp...still not sure how smart it is to put a much
larger engine on a frame that supported something lighter..
Intek shows up with the B & S ads..Read good and bad about
them..The main things I've found out through emails..chat
lines is that I will need a regulated alternator for the electric pto clutch.
I've never seen it listed as such..always had to ask the question,
Also, the attach bolt pattern is the same for most of the engines,
Some of the inquirys result in a reply with line drawings, which
really help to understand the envelope. Some don't come with
fuel pumps or mufflers...I have gravity flow on the 283707, so
I would have to somehow get a hot wire for a fuel pump.
Anyway, I would appreciate if there are any glaring errors,
or missed cosiderations that you give me a yell
thx..hal12
