Tuneup 1,433 #11 Posted July 14, 2020 I like it! That poor Onan would become more a plug shooter than an engine at full boost. Those poor heads and rings... 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greentored 3,217 #18 Posted August 21, 2020 Those ‘mud mowers’ are gaining popularity and hold up quite well actually. Many are using lesser quality mowers and vertical shaft engines (still don’t know how they keep a belt on submerged in mud!) but they go through transmissions often. The ol’ wheel horse trannys are pretty tough so a few run em. This is ‘wheel’n horse’- a very well used and abused, nearly not worth saving 654 I threw together for trail riding. It does surprisingly well, and will run 28mph flat out. 2 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
