the all aussie dribble thread!

Well thats alright then lol

I've got an older 13hp one on a ride on. Been a good motor but the poor old bolens chassis is on it's last legs. I'm toying with the idea of building a chainsaw mill and mounting the motor on that. Should do the trick.

Jonno & Johnno sell parts dirt cheap for those motors. Or is it Johnno & Jonno?

Last parts I tried to get for my Robin generator were a needle and seat and I got quoted $90 [emoji15] I ended up buying a chinga carby for $20 off another model and robbed the parts from that. I'll give the jonno's a go. Cheers.

The briggs and Stratton engines I found they were good for parts earlier this year.

Not sure what their like with other makes or if they even sell them.

Ah OK, I thought you meant they were good for the Jap ones. Most lawnmower shops have briggs parts cheap and they're easy to come by. I've also got a 5hp on a fire pump and 3 1/2hp on my push mower. Good engines!

Yeah, two local mower shops here both had parts but they were a bit over double the price of Jonno on most of the stuff.

Just taking the piss mate they all sound like that. I love those old tin top Briggs still got a heap of reamers and **** for those packed away here. I got a mower here with a 910? Series ohv donk on it not much impressed with it really has the extra lobe on the cam as a decomp I recon it makes it harder to start and definitely sounds like **** when pulling it over or when its stoping clicks and rattles like a mofo

Good show Jason, i cannot view the vid as I am out of megs this month again at work.
That old greenfield is still in reasonable nick for the old straight bonnet 28inch cut job, I bought it many years ago 2nd hand. Went through it one time and replaced some bearings and both V belts, I now need to re cork the clutch plates and with this rebuilt engine it will be back to a great little ride on.
I have another greenfield in part, it has no engine but the clutch looks good and looks to be same size, should just do a swap and re cork the clutch sometime.

managed to do a little saw shed time myself yesterday, 3120 bottom end rebuild, nice to see that crank spin without making noises again, may even get the top end done tonight.

I thought that business sold after market stuff and Chinese copies ect. I am interested in a couple of their 6hp reduction box / clutch engines, for my dockers, can run a little bigger even size 2 belt pulleys instead of a small one engine end that slips under load.

You should of heard it before Jason got hold of it, it ran, it made noises it should not and it blew blue smoke, some times lots of it.

Yep....they sell lots of that.....bUT the quality is fine as far as I can tell..I couldn't tell the difference so not sure if the parts were OEM or not but everything fitted perfectly and she runs as good as new.
