Tractorhead 9,212 #3 Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) I used a Loncin Brand for my Verticalengine Horse 212-5 That fit’s and works perfect, i‘m honestly satisfied about Startup and even running. Also after i equipped my Horse with Hydraulics, this Engine just do it‘s job since 3/4 Year. Especialy in Winter Service i loved the quick starting Engine the only Maintenance was oilchange and Airfilter check and cleanup from Time to Time. Important: before i swapped the Engine (an old Onan with ripped Cylinherhead) i compare all sources, what is with the Engines. The Loncin was the cheapest with all Attachments complete Carb, intake Outle Exhaust. It was a simple“swap and run“ Engine. Just the Throttlewire have to be adapted, but that was not big Deal and in the Paperworks good described. The whole Engineswap was a 2h Job, with adaptations for Charger and throttle 3h.

I have enough, to plow Snow by Hand. This horse was sitting before in a burning Barn. After that it stay‘s a year outside hulled in Firedistinguisher. Than i give him a second life. I never expected to get such a good Partner, got some good info‘s here, thats the Way all started. All mods are a kind of my Playtime, to come away from TV and a test of my own knowledge. Now it becomes a hobby for me, to built own Attachements. basicly it was just built for mow, but the ability to grow, is in each Wheelhorse..👍😎 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
