Retired Wrencher 4,918 #11 Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) jimkemp Nice looking 656. There are still a few HH60`s around if you would like to keep that way. It looks like it is all there. I Have the bottom pan so if you would like to have it made up can send picks of the size and length. Just so you know the 65`s and 66`s that I have seen the seat is white in the middle. This is what I have seen. My 606 that I had was white. Enjoy the ride. Gary B.... Edited September 22, 2015 by T1257 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just pick up a 607 that took years to find. So hang in there C/list is not bad either. If you ever need part #`s let me know I have a lot of them in a Big book. I will keep an eye out for you also.

Ken B 3,116 #16 Posted September 23, 2015 Nice little 656 you got there. You might find it easier too find a Kohler 6-8 hp yank start for it. Everything about the Kohler will be a little easier, finding the engine, finding parts, starting it, less headaches, ETC. I have had plenty of Tecky's in my day, good ones and or rebuildable ones are out there but like Gary said, you'll be searching. When a Tecky runs nice and proper they can be a nice little engine... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree if your not looking to keep it original go with a Kohler you will like it much better, I've got my dad's 656 & that's the first thing he did was put a Kohler in it,& to this day it runs & drives great.

jimkemp 525 #18 Posted September 23, 2015 I am going to put what ever motor I can find in it for right now , but I still am going to keep looking for a original motor for it , I will find one someday , I have just started the search 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob.A.700 306 #20 Posted September 24, 2015 an 8hp kohler works perfectly thats whats in mine! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
semperfi8185 56 #21 Posted September 25, 2015 JimThe 8 hp Kohler is a drop in replacement for the 6 hp techy. I'm pulling my H60 because 1.) the carb always needs to be adjusted and 2.) They are harder to come by than the 8 hp Kohlers. I want to store the original engine while its still in good shape and I want the original engine around should I decide to sell it. I've already found a motor for a good price. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
