Geno 1,929 #26 Posted December 14, 2014 Geno the XL like this see the original underneath is not the original engine it should have the balloon emblem. That would be a HH60 engine. I'll run the numbers on it tomorrow to see if it's a 67 HH60-105013B. I got this from my dealer friend in Jersey who sold it new. It is a one owner and I have every receipt for work done on it (most of it by the same dealer) since new but didn't see an engine swap receipt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geno 1,929 #41 Posted December 15, 2014 I'll run the numbers on it tomorrow to see if it's a 67 HH60-105013B. I got this from my dealer friend in Jersey who sold it new. It is a one owner and I have every receipt for work done on it (most of it by the same dealer) since new but didn't see an engine swap receipt. Well I got the numbers off of the tag on the shroud and it is a HH60-105013B, which is what is supposed to be on a 67 657. I guess maybe it's a late model with the new decal or it could also be like a lot of things that we find are not set in stone when it comes to these old tractors.

Geno, I've noticed Those larger rectangle shaped Decals were commonly placed on 70's and up troybuilt tillers and some other applications . I've bought up a few of those tillers and a few of those engines for parts and future rebuilds. So, I've come to believe that The balloon Decals seem to be pretty much on the 60's stuff (H & HH models). also, The Balloon engine decals on the older "60s" tecumsehs wording indicates CAST IRON for the HH models and not on the H models(referencing to horizontal shaft model that is). I've only noticed this with my own observation in buying these "tecky" engines. Just my 2 cents Edited December 15, 2014 by Terry M 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geno 1,929 #43 Posted December 15, 2014 So you think someone changed the decal? I've been looking around and can't find the decal like on mine anywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry M-(Moderator) 2,177 #44 Posted December 15, 2014 Refering to your rectangle decal, I've seen them originally placed on the gas tanks of trot built tillers and I believe I remember seeing them on the fan shroud of tecumseh VH (vertical shaft) engine models of Lawn tractors of many brands . also , I've seen your rectangle decal for sale on ebay a few times. Again, just telling you info from my own observations of engines... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geno 1,929 #45 Posted December 15, 2014 I'm getting even more confused now. I just brought up the HH60-105013B manual in the manuals section on here and it shows a drawing of a rectangular decal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry M-(Moderator) 2,177 #46 Posted December 15, 2014 Just a clarification , the decals we're talking about are also on the same vertical shaft models as well as horizontal models.. (i.e. , HH=cast iron horizontal shaft engines , VH = cast iron vertical shaft engines in different sizes). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just brought up the HH60-105013B manual in the manuals section on here and it shows a drawing of a rectangular decal. Hard to say, maybe manuals printed later have different or more recent pics. Just going by my observations. I'm not claiming anything absolute ...sorry if I'm confusing you... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
