A *real* tin magnet
I got the 111 John Deere for free, It had a ventilated block, 11 horse single. Yesterday I scored an MTD with an 18 horse twin.
The twin set right in and there were holes to line right up, shafts are the same.
I had to bend some metal to clear the starter.
Now I have to cut out the hood so it will set down.
I will need to make brackets for the muffler if I keep it, make a longer throttle cable, add a choke cable and reroute the fuel line. And an air cleaner.
Sooo, from 11 horse single to 18 horse twin, maybe paint it all JD Blitz black and do some pinstriping?
