Thanks for the video. I got one of these Lug-Bug 500 tugs with a Briggs and Stratton engine built in 1980! The engine still runs great but the belt was trashed. Thanks to your video I was able to fix it, yes the 4L390 belt worked perfect. Oh, switched out the Points and condenser for an electronic ignition. For anyone else taking on this project cutting out the 2 access holes is a necessity. Whoever invented this never intended for anyone to ever have to replace the belt. Lasting 45 years is not bad....
@@repairrestoreresell2026please do! That was my next goal. Mine keeps popping out of forward and i have no idea how to separate the transmission from the pulley.
You did not accept defeat! Excellent skills. Perserverance. Glad you posted. I use aircraft tugs similar to this alot. Small airplanes can be heavy. Difficult to push uphill, especially by yourself. Keep up the videos. What part of the world are you? Engineer better be continually grateful ! Wondering what he pushes around with the now operable tug. : )

Glad the Video was helpful. The tug is back here now with a transmission problem. I'll probably video that repair.
