Dave, It is a Honda GX620 20hp. Its the 2nd year for it. It runs great, and is very fuel efficient.

Got my 108 running the other day. 108, 109, 2x1450, 782

They were a cheap set, Neiko I think. Th e crank is .010 under. Ordered new rod, haven't put it in yet tho. I see what you mean about the digitals. I ended up putting my dial on it. It is a little hard to read, but got the job done.

Ordered a new digital mic, gonna pull the engine and have another look at it.

Great! I will have a look. Thanks for the info guys!

A friend bought a 129 from me, and when your mowing or going foward, you can feel it speed up. The forward and reverse handle doesn't have much stiffness to it. My 109 is pretty firm. Is this usually caused by the trunion wearing out?

Mike the engine ran fine up until the rebuild. It had a ring break so I honed it, new piston, rings and rod. I'm thinking when I rebuilt it, I used a standard rod. My dad rebuilt it 10 years ago and may have had the crank turned. He has dementia now and doesn't remember. I am going to pull it again ...

Haha, thats a good one Dave! Never thought about that!

And yes it is still knocking. I've heard of the Kohler knock on rebuilt engines, but this one seems excessive.

Got the boys out the other day. Just rebuilt 1450 #2, but it has a knock. Pulled oil pan, replaced rod again with brand new one. Everything is tight. Going to run it til it blows. Put another K241 on the 109. Found a motor in a mower junk yard for free. It was upside down, on a frame. Cut it out, br...

Well Jess, you hit it on the head, it was the voltage regulator! Stator was putting out 23 vac. Put another regulator on it and it is back charging. Thanks again for the info!

Ok, I will check it out. Thanks for the info Jess. Will keep you posted!

Yesterday I was running my 1450 wilth the rototiller and the tiller quit. After checking it out, I had found that the wire running to the clutch rubbed and was shorting it out. It did not blow the fuse so I need to check amp on the fuse. My next question is that it quit charging also. Does anyone kn...

Wow Ben...Thats amazing! I bet it was loud.

Wow Ken, good thing no one was standing under it when it let go!

Lets get the mower decks on soon!

Anyone ever tried these as replacement lights for a QL?

Pushed that brush pile up in about 20 mins.

Made a weight bar out of a 1" weight bar my son had. Added 70lbs. to it and man what a difference. Also added a wig wag flasher to the taillights.

Ya, I had thought about getting some skid pads from xtreme, but I thought I would try this 1st. I think it will work fine as long as I don't catch em on something.

Dave, its about a 1/4"-1/2" below the skid shoe. I wanted the skids left on to make it more sturdy. Its up from the cutting edge 1 1/2"-2". Will know more when I get it on the 782.

Been toying with the idea of trying deck wheels on my snowblower to keep it out of the rocks. We will see what happens.

Looks nice Jess!

Yes Sir!

You could be redoing a John Deere...Those are some ridiculous prices! A dash panel sticker I mind you, for my 110, $164.00

Got the 1450 finished today. I had forgot how good of a worker it is. Now with 2 more hp.

My project for tomorrow. Putting up a fence.

Ya it is Kevin, it has rained on and off all day, but I wanted to play!

Had a little cub time today plowing the garden
