wfopete 15 #1 Posted May 13, 2009 Hi folks I just registered. I have a old 1967(?) Model 105, S/N 117473 Lawn Ranger with: Tecumseh engine: H60 751180 S/N 4293 05199 and a Rear discharge mower: RM115 S/N 113404 The engine is locked up; I plan to restore the original engine if I can get parts but for now I thought a could temporary replace it with a Tecumseh OHH60 with a sleeve adapter. Is there a better alternative to this engine? Also this uses the gear drive deck, are any parts available for this deck still? :omg: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drydock 3 #3 Posted May 13, 2009 I have an OHH60 that I use as a sort of standby engine in my smaller tractors until I can get the original restored. Its seen service in a 551 and a Lawn Ranger like yours, as well as a Mini Bike. Works great, I like it a lot. Plowed my garden with it in the 551. I just use 3/4" bore pulleys from Tractor supply. Parts for the original H60 can be found here, ebay, partstree, Farmex and many other places I'm sure others will tell you of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wfopete 15 #4 Posted May 13, 2009 I also have an opportunity to put in a 16 Horse Power 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldandred 15 #5 Posted May 14, 2009 will the three speed handle the 16 hp sure it will O by the way the 105 is a 1965 not 1967 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wfopete 15 #6 Posted May 14, 2009 I kinda figured it would. I mean if they put those Peerless transmission/transaxles behind the 12-16HP engines you see at the big chain stores today, the old cast iron Horse should handle it. Yup, 105 dead give away for the year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
