Retired Wrencher 4,887 #1 Posted May 1, 2013 I finally finished the the 657 today. the last thing was the Carb. When it was all hook up it Fired rite up. I have never had an engine start this easy. This tractor has been sitting for 20 years under a porch and forgotten in Mideltown Ct. As u can see the paint is gone. Marvel/M/Oil has taken over. So now all I have to do is find a set of 6/12 turf tiers for it.I have to say It has taken me meany years to find this tractor, I believe because of the engine u do not see meany of these up here with a Tecky in them. Usually a Harbor fright or a Honda. I do no that this not the original engine but it seems to run good. I hope you enjoy the picks Gary B................. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarkPalmer 80 #10 Posted May 2, 2013 I too enjoy seeing them with original paint. Very nice tractor! Even if it's not the engine original to the tractor it's the correct replacement, and that sure beats seeing something silly like a Chinese Predator or other junk bolted on it. -Mark- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am just like Mark Said that it is at least A tecky replacement. = a HH60 and not something else. Take Care All Gary B....................... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
