dhardin 0 Posted January 26, 2005 About two snow storms ago a friend stoped me as I was pushing snow with my AC416 an offered me this free. [img]attach/dhardin/IMAGE0100s.JPG[/img] The Wheelhorse has a nice recently rebuild 8hp kohler and a blade that was still froze to the ground. A steering wheel and a deck belt, battery and this guys ready to mow. But i have no need for it, but do have planes for the motor. [img]attach/dhardin/IMAGE0099s.JPG[/img] The Craftsmen 6hp brigg started right up for me. The guy said he could not get it started when it was cold. It started right up for me but i was 50 degrees yesterday. I don't need it so I'm going to work it over to be a "power wheel barrow".

dhardin 0 Posted January 26, 2005 Boy dont ask me how to spell anything. lol Yes you are right in dead it is a Tecumseh, I just looked up the model No. 143-606093 143 is Tecumseh. The prefix 500 is Briggs. I need to find a regular air filter for the engine. The snow blowers just use a shroud is all, so it wont freez up. It allways amazed me how it works as well as it dose with out sucking in all kinds of blowing snow. For what i plan to use it for it will need a air filter to contain the dust.

ehertzfeld 1 Posted January 26, 2005 Hey, my dad had one of thouse snow throwers! The thing worked great for years. We cave it to my friend a few years back. Somthing it the gear box broke, you had to hold it in gear to move. My friend took it apart and fixed it and is still using it. Elon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
