16 hp tecumseh engine loosing power

[guyfox]

Think I found the problem...Took the carb apart AGAIN and cleaned it up AGAIN....This time I took more time and found that one of the jets were block solid.....Cleaned it out and put it back on and now no problems....But I think I will keep my eye open for a new engine from Princess Auto when they go on sale again...

What size would you recommend for a 6x6 argo????

Anything 18HP or higher would be good.

One thing to remember gentlemen, if the driven clutch is not working properly, ie:shifting to soon, it would be like shifting from 1st to 3rd in your pickup going up hill. This puts more load on a relatively low hp engine and will bog. My 18 hp kohler ran hot and sluggish in my argo magnum till moos-a-boo(my brother) put a rock doctor tune up on my clutches. She runs like it has 20hp now, a huge difference and it steers better also which is what I was really trying to accomplish.
