rmaynard 17,537 #9 Posted August 13 (edited) I heard it was the "6" series with Tecumseh engines EDIT: But I could be wrong. I heard it while standing in the ice cream line watching Kevin. Edited August 13 by rmaynard 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Considered & bought a citrus based paint stripper but just havent gotten around to it. Hard to tell whats hiding under paint. Even the engine is painted with same wrong color. The plow is from a 604 & I keep it oiled . Edited August 13 by ML3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 47,898 #15 Posted August 13 We had a 604. Dad bought it brand new. This picture is around 1970. You can see it already got at least 1 replacement engine! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ri702bill 12,837 #17 Posted August 13 The difference between a 7HP Kohler & a 7 HP Tecumseh...... You torque the mounting fasteners on the Kohler. You use wingnuts on the Tecky - hand tight - makes it easier to replace later. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
