Jim, where did you source those custom cylinder motor mounts? I am not finding anything in my searches. The only thing I can think of is an impact socket.

Those mounts are indeed custom.I had them on my lathe.They only need to be that tall if you are putting the Pred on a hydro equipted tractor.If you put the Pred on an 8 speed then you could get by stacking washers to get  around 3/8" increase in height.

McMaster Carr has what you need.Look there at the area of spacers/stand offs.The plain aluminum has tons of options .

Yes Thank you, That is what I need, I'll check Mcmaster...Its for my 520H...It will take me the rest of the summer to rebuild that Onan

My measurements have the HF at 5 1/4" and the Onan at 6/5/8" for 1 3/8" standoff. These are off a flat surface. I left the 1/8" for the mounting plate out.

 

Is this about the size you made (Below Pic)(Number 8 bolt)? Do you still have the thread size for the available holes in the side of the HF motor? The ones to be used for the PTO Plate. I do not have many metric bolts laying around.

 

Bolts for mounting? Maybe these?

The bolts I used were 3/8" diam.No metric fasteners are needed to mount.If you want to attach the pto ,SAE hardware is used and you don't need metric fasteners there either.The Onan plate is 1/4" so 1 1/4" spacer is just right.

I'll measure my plate again. I measured it at 1/8" and I'll try my SAE bolts...I assumed they were metric threads in the HF motor...Your replies are a great help. :text-thankyouyellow:

 

EDIT: Nice the SAE bolts fit. and the plate measures at 3/16"  so 1 1/4" spacer/standoff will work fine.:thumbs:

I checked the plate thickness and you are correct.It measures 3/16" not 1/4".I just knew it was thicker than 1/8".Thanks for jogging my memory on this conversion as I am going to fit another Pred 13 on to the 94 312 I just brought home.The Predator 13 can't beat the Onan in smoothness or power but in a pinch will allow you the time to get the Onan sorted out.Luck,JAinVA

      I picked up a low hour, (189.6) abandoned 416h yesterday.  Does anyone know what size the o-ring is that seals the carb to the air cleaner?  Mines cracked and I expected it to break in pieces when I remove it there by making it useless for sizing at the hardware store.  Also, the voltage regulator is missing.  Has anyone tried used a regulator from a Kawasaki as a replacement?  I have a couple here and thought about trying them.  Can anyone tell me if this engine has the governor spacer with the tab?  Thanks.

      I'm new here, but I have years and miles of dealing with electrical issues with my 1997 416H, engine Onan P216G (I am the only owner) . Problem description: the start circuit turns the starter over fine, but no spark at the plugs or the coil sockets by spark tester.  The ignition trigger tests good by connecting a test light to the coil positive and and the ignition trigger negative lead, plenty of light flash from the test light in unison with the engine turning over. So, I conclude the ignition trigger, replaced 3/18/2021 along with the coil is good.  I have followed the "Demystification" wiring diagram in detail and there is 12V at the coil positive terminal, wiriing is solid (for now), all those damn safety switches, key switch,  and relays work too. I conclude that the coil is bad since the primary side tests 3.1 OHM and the secondary tests infinite OHMS (1. displayed on multimeter).  Two coils (Onan part# 166-0820) have NEW dates of 3/2021 and 8/2021, and yes both have the same test results mentioned. Infinite OHMs to me means the coil windings are broken. The most recent coil came from Onanparts.com and tested as mentioned above when it arrived.  Onanparts won't take anything back!  There are a lot of coils on ebay and various suppliers from China.  Maybe good, maybe bad, who can tell? And most suppliers won't accept returned electrical parts. Please help: What are good test readings for a GOOD coil (primary and secondary). Who do you recommend as a reliable supplier for a new coil? 
      Thanks for any help!

      Hi,
       
      I have a cracked seat support on my tractor.  Does anyone have pictures of how they have repaired or beefed up this area?  I did see a thread regarding repairs but I am trying to figure out how to beef up this area without causing problems for myself when reinstalling the belt gard and other covers.  Thanks.
