Found a 1995 B1750 HST Bi-Speed turn with a Woods loader on craigslist the price was good even though the ad said "engine overheated replaced battery, water pump and head gasket"
Looked into getting it running today but it was not firing at all and there was a smell of starting fluid. Valve clearance was about .030 so brought them to spec. Figured it was time for a compression test so off the Harbor Freight for a tester. All the cylinders had about 175 lbs. Pulled the head to look at the cylinders and there was heavy scoring on the wrist pin side of each cylinder.
Guess tomorrow I will look into a rebuild kit. Wondering if anyone has had luck with the ebay kits including sleeves?
