A neighbor has a new Tuffy with a 3.75 hp Honda motor. It's virtually identical to mine. Doesn't seem to be any degradation over the years in weight, sturdiness or build quality, and that little Honda is a sweety. While the price is nuts, I just might decide to buy m'self one. |
That HF Honda close 6 1/2 HP can be bought for $110 with the proper coupon. How much does maintenance on old engines cost in terms of time and $$?
It took about 20 minutes to install, and most of that time was spent in cleaning up the bore on the old pulley to fit cleanly on the shaft.
