Old girl deserves that new engine!
Last week when mowing with Country Squire
- Thread starter MNGB
- Start date
Yes they are so I think this is a good upgrade but still stay close to OEM with the hood in place nobody will notice at first glance
It how Power King engine are installed it came out of a Jim Dandy which is a smaller Economy-Power King, so this will pretty much be plug and play install
That’s the kind of technology that I can work with.
The replacement engine arrived yesterday got it in the shop looked it over a bit checked the model number and low and behold its the very same model as the old one just 15 years newer so it has the magnatron ignition system a newer carb model and muffler other wise the throttle cable and choke cables connect the same. So later this week I'll work on installing it this should make a good engine
Hopefully you can save it.
Well I felt good this afternoon so went into the shop and installed the newer engine on the Country Squire, got the bellhousing bolts all in and just dropped the 4 engine mount bolts in the holes. Put new oil in the engine added a qt or so of gas squirted a shot of gas into the carb touched the battery + cable to the starter/gen post and it cranked over great and started and ran beautiful its a keeper.
