I know you probably wouldn't need it but it would be nice if there were an electric start option for those extremely cold days. Those appear to be a good replacement engine for a snowblower.
That's really awesome. You're welcome. Thank you for the comments. I'm really glad i helped you out. I used mine yesterday after 6 inches fell again and it was great. All stock carb and jets etc and it worked really well . Hoping it lasts a long time for both of us.
I don’t mean to complain their guy but that strobe light is driving me nuts I can’t work out in the freezing cold gotta have heat you did a real nice job on it you can’t beat the prices for the predator engines
I understand and sorry about that. . Thanks for the comment. If i could easily reshoot the video i would but it's not really an option. I'm not sure why that headlamp does that but the other LED flashlight doesn't. It's too bad i didnt use it in a 2 minute video first. But now i know and i wont use it when shooting a video. It's not strobing at all in real life. Just mismatched with the shutter of the camera.
Well what a coincidence. I got a JD 826 less the engine a few weeks ago. Even had the belts. I installed a Honda clone engine in it and sold it for $250.00. It worked just fine. Had to drill a few bolt holes for the mounting base but it worked out good.
Thanks. That's great. I ordered a bigger jet for my carb just to see if it helps it run a little bit smoother. That cold winter air usually needs a little richer mixture so i ordered a .038. I plan to test out removal of the air filter and box top and possibly the muffler. But no worries. This motor doesn't NEED the changes. I'm just playing around with it. Good luck with yours. Please add a comment with additional info for the next guy after you do it.
Don't forget to remove the air filter and to do the cold weather mods seen in other videos, also turning up the governor will help it work much better too.
Great job 🎉
Thank you! 😁
Thanks
Glad i could help

I agree. They have a larger engine that does have it i think but that would require different pulleys and belts etc.
Got it swapped out. Thankyou for the inspiration and info.

Yup. Love mine. Works great
Handy home owner you gained a new sub

Great video. Getting excited to do mine now.

you should use blue loctite not red. feel sorry for whoever has to change that engine again
Red isnt really that strong. There are lots stronger versions.

Great comment. Yes. Thanks
