    I will never understand that mentality. Well it's not worth $900... Meanwhile a new commercial machine starts at 5k and goes up from there. It isn't clapped out. Parker makes some of the best hydraulics in the world with the longest product cycles so parts availability spans decades so I know that is not some junk machine.

    • @smallenginerescue

      You make a good point from a customer stand point it would have been worth it for them to repair it. But for me reselling it I wouldn't make much profit on it after putting that much money into it ( it would need more than $900 in parts before i would feel comfortable selling it).But the parts off of it could save me thousands so it's worth more to me in parts.

    Very helpful. Mine's leaking around the float bowl. I was able to find individual parts for the float, needle, and gasket. Also thru in the primer parts to replace that while I am at it. In 10 years it could be twice the price to fix so I am taking care of it now. New OEM carbs are +700 bucks. Got all the parts for around 120. The wheeler has sentimental value to me as it was my fathers. After he passed I went to go for a ride and gas was leaking onto the engine. Looking forward to visiting his grave site on his old wheeler.

    250watts rated gen. That's not a lot but more than enough to make some light. especially with LED-bulbs. If I'm not mistaken, this is a DC-gen ... not an AC-gen. Totally nof fitted for any AC-running motor. Originally this gen was used for a Teletypewriter TG-7-B

    @kramnull8962 Місяць тому

    The compression release on the 2017 17.5 Intek Briggs will cause some carnage if the pressure release lever gets trapped between the rod and the block. Reviews on the Brigg's Amazon account, 2 years ago said don't waste your time on a new cam from Briggs OEM. Aftermarket cams were worse. Breaking in 1 day. Doesn't say if they were using good oil, or not; but mine was salvageable. Just have to place your hand over the air intake to crank it. Not worth buying a new engine or camshaft over. The cam lobes look great. If a new one is going to break anyways, just keep the engine I got. It's still 17.5hp. I have a 23hp Kawasaki cousin to this one. Hopefully the rats was this one's only problem. Still have to adjust the valves on mine after 2 seasons.

    • @smallenginerescue
