Up and running again
I have a 2007 40 in. murry lawntractor that had the orig 12.5 cast iron sleeve briggs it sold with when new,That engine 18.5 yrs from new blew on me while mowing in 105° feels like weather a cpl weeks ago.What to do..A New mower is arnd 3 to 6 thousand..Being a diy guy I purchased the EX1900 cast iron sleeve briggs and stratton 19 hp engine..The Crank shaft on the new 19 is the same size as the shaft on the old 12.5 briggs,the engine mounts on the new 19 hp are the exact same location and size as the old 12.5,Throttle cable,fuel line,wiring,old main pto pully,all installed with no modifications..THANKYOU!!!! Saved me thousands of dollars!!! Doing it myself with the help of your engine that is offerd as a replacement..6.5 more hp is awesome.Tractor drives operates better thah before.The hp 19 has more power to get the grass cut when hi with a mulch plate on at first pass, what it wldnt do with the 12.5 hp when the grass is high..First start and breakin was easy.I Like the easy replace oil filter on this motor as the old motor did not have..New engine is easy to start Is relatively quiter that the 12.5 was ,purrs like a kitten when running.I Hope the tractor holds out another 10 yrs as replacement parts for it are getting scarce for the old murry. A zillion Thanks again for not changing the design alot, over the years so as to keep your product in demand for diy'ers like me, who keep the old and almost obsolete good equipment running like new again...
