I bought a tiller about 4 years ago with great plans to get a garden in. It never had any power and would bog down quick. Eventually it quit running altogether. I tried rebuilding the carburetor, but that did not fix it. Dad said someone had told him they knew a guy that was "great" with small engines and so he loaded it up and hauled it away. About 2 weeks later he picked it up and Mr. Rube Goldberg had completely transformed the 3hp motor into a newer/used 5hp motor. The old motor had no compression, which came as a result of either age or running without an air cleaner. Now it tears up the dirt. He added all kinds of levers and a kill switch and fixed the tire that would go flat in 5 minutes.







Special thanks to dad for getting it back on the road and for Mom weeding my garden while we were in Alaska.
