| Paint job looks good. Are there any mom and pop size engine rebuild shops around you that can help you out? I agree with the other guys. I would hone the cylinder at a minimum. There's a lot of DIY things you can do to that motor now that is have it all apart like checking the head for flat, polishing the crank journal, and lapping the valves. | |

LOL, glad you figured out the vibration! I do have to say, that is the best looking Tecumseh I have seen. | |

| If that's the kind of schmoo you run in a lot I'd say lock it. How'd the motor run? | |

| @Crazy_Carl its running good , but once i have the funds im going to rebuild it. once work slows down im pulley swaping it and get a new clutch pulley. the best thing about these old tractors is you put it in low and first and get off and it crawls out by it self, lol well for most part. i was pulling my kids in a trailer thats why i sunk, i took it off and I went up that hill in 3rd high a few times not getting stuck, when in dought throttle out | |

| maybe you’d want some wheel weights for a pulling application. Nice to see the tractor hard at work | |
