I wonder if the rest of the unit is a 1986?Īgain,thank you.The manuals you supplied are making this job enjoyable instead of concerning. Nice to know the year of engine manufacture. I did not intend this as a build thread,but here we are. With the engine off,I will use the engine hoist to raise it on a work table and service the transmission items as well I cleaned the needle with Flitz when the carb was off, but it probably needs replaced as the gas runs through,and floods the carburetor. Strap steel and a rod welded at the deck edge should fix things up The float and/or needle and seat need investigating. It is a wonder that the engine did not suffer a bent shaft,but it appears to be OK. The front center of the deck was caved in and cut through with the blade. These engines seem to need the air cleaner foam installed to run correctly. The next step is to add a hard point to mount a choke cable, put the air cleaner back on ,and test it further. I simply manipulated the choke manually with my finger,and it ran great. I was able to get it to run for at least 3 minutes till it ran out of fuel. I used a vet syringe as a small fuel reservoir and connected to the fuel line. I managed to hook up the short spring from the governor lever and the top linkage rod from the top hole of the governor lever to the carb throttle.

The fine spring that probably goes from the governor flywheel link to the carb throttle was broken and placed over the outside of a linkage rod. The carb linkage is suspect from a previous repair. I am very impressed with the quality of the carbs on this engine,and yes.they were clogged up. Knowing the carb would most likely need cleaned, i soaked it in my coffee maker with hot detergent and used carb cleaner and tore it down to clear the jets. Well, cool, it has compression and spark and will fire and run! A squirt of carb cleaner at the intake manifold and she fired about six strokes. I got spark and right away changed the oil. I 'inherited' an old snapper RER when a tenant skipped out and it appears to be in good shape.
