the scarey thing is how much many of those parts look just like the 13hp 33" Snapper Yard Cruiser I have owed for the last 15 years...
FYI is you ever look to buy a new replacement engine, Snapper YZ1338BE Outdoor Power Equipment Repower from Small Engine Warehouse
here is an example from smallenginewarehouse of a repower solution for my yz1333. If you give the site your snapper model number they can give you a repower solution. I did not go with this one I went with a 19hp that was a direct replacement except for some small wiring changes.

hey that looks like a great site for a replacement egvine...i have the high hope that i will get a few years of use out of the briggs engine i just put on my snapper.

one thing i do need is a new snapper seat, the one on ther now is cracked pretty bad. i dont really want to get a universal replacement, i want one that says SNAPPER

While I understand why you would want a seat that says snapper... I bought a seat from northern tools a few years ago that is a highback and way more comfortable that the original seat for my zrider. I would never go back.

not bad.

Now if only they had a memory foam model, I would never want to stop mowing. :biggrin:
