Pony engine conversion to Elec start

Posted by Markus on February 04, 2005 at 11:13:44 from (65.223.237.178):

My pony on my 720D is in rough shape...has a broken rod. I am really considering converting it over to a 12 volt aftermarket electric start system. THere are at least 3 places that sell these kits...WIlson Farm, CLyde Wilson, etc...all here in Ohio.

Another reaosn I want to convert is that I just like the simplicity of pushing a button to start the tractor rather than waiting for pony to warm up and the pony is also messy, drips etc. I estimate my pony needs $800 in repairs to overhaul. I will keep it around for the future in case I want to put it back on.

ANybody have experience with the aftermarket kits? what should I look for...they seem to be around $800.

ANy thoughts?

Thanks!
