Hello, this is my 1st post on here.
About 2 years ago, I bought a MF8 lawn mower. The guy told me it was his Paps and it always had governor problems and they could never figure it out. I picked it up for $75. It has a few cosmetic issues but nothing I can't handle. I started working on the engine, (Tecumseh hm80) I realized its missing the linkage from the governor to the carb and a few other things. I monkey-ed with it a little more and got it to run. It runs like garbage and I decided I want to put a different engine on it. So I parked it in the corner and left it sit.
3 days ago I picked up a kohler k241s 10hp. It came off a wheelhorse. Now before I start tearing things apart and getting deep into this project, I wanna have a general idea of how much of a project this is going to be. Any ideas?
