    My buddy calls them Tejunkski. I can't argue with it. V twin Briggs is good upgrade. If you have to cut welds put a bolt through the crank bore to keep the clutch from hurting you. It will be under very high tension if fully engaged.

    Often times when a clutch is run with no belt it will stick open, try a pry bar first while assembled, place pry bar with end at the bottom of the fixed sheave and the shaft on the moveable sheave. They usually snap right open once over center.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.

    Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

    I am your new Tecumseh Friend! I run a OH160, Not because a B&S 18hp vanguard wouldn't be sweet but because I'm cheap! So no power Tecumseh. means poor valve adjustment and luckily it is bug simple to fix. the OH160 uses .005 & 0.10 exhaust. rear the online manual for OH120 and you should be golden.
