LOL.. First rattle out of the bat, find it to have a bad coil. Stens wants $183. I'm reluctant. But looks like I'll have to go with on of these cheap Amazon coils.
This twin cylinder tecumseh is the best I've heard so far. But I do like the way the V twin Kohler sounds on this same mower. I have one (with the V twin) for sale at the moment. And when it cranks up, the customers eyes get a little excited. Same as the Tecumseh.
I was just looking at the Stens prices for some of this stuff. $183 for a coil. $53 for the carb kit. $96 for the fuel pump.
The customer just told me to keep it, since the coil was so high. Apparently it has been sitting for a long time. And when their other mower died, they decided to see about getting this one fixed before they went and bought a new one.
I can't wait to hear it crank up.
