520-H Tractor and Snowblower Rebuild

[sgtsampay 117]

Hi all. Here is what I have been doing this last week. I was using my neighbor's Tractor for snowbank removal monday and noticed that it had low power for a 20 horse and the snowblower needed new bearing and some tlc. So, I rebuilt the snowblower for him and helped rebuild the engine as it had 1,200 hours on it, and 120PSI and 30PSI in the cylinders for compression. Since i never was able to rebuild an engine before, I though this would be a great time to learn. So he helped me and we were able to get it all back together and its now running like a kitten. LOL. I learned a lot from him and about engine this week and gained lots of confendence. I'm very proud of the work I did and here are some pictures for you guys. LOL. Enjoy.

Edit: The pictures will have to wait as photobucket is being stupid and not letting me uploading anything right now. Sry.

Now that you did a 20 horse Onen do you want to do a 14HP Kohler? It should be easy.

BTW, I'm all set with working on another engine right now. I want to start and complete my tractor's smoke stack and belt change before classes start in one week.
