Click Image for more Information about this Engine Group This series of engines are usually to be found on rotary lawnmowers, ride-on mowers, garden tractors, wheeled vacuums, poo pickers. They have also been used on a few models of rotovators and other equipment
They have their drive output crankshaft emerging vertically from the bottom of the engine on which is usually mounted a blade, drive pulley, fan or clutch. A pull starter and/or a flywheel guard grill will be on the top of the engine.
The piston runs horizontally and the spark plug(s) will be located on the front of the engine.
Single cylinder, V Twin and Opposed(flat) Twin Vertical crankshaft engines have all been manufactured.
Vertical Engine Crankshaft Dimensions
To check crankshaft dimensions of a vertical crankshaft engine, place a straight edge against the end of the bare crankshaft (pulley or blade mount removed) and measure the height to the mounting face of the engine. The length of shaft emerging from the bottom of the engine is NOT the quoted length.
spoke to Michael in parts department told him i had purchased parts earlier but had missed a part out when ordering said he would try his best to get it to me following day low and behold part came following morning great customer service will certainly use them again
Parts arrived a few days after ordering. Not the cheapest out there when delivery factored in but at least you know the part is going to fit without too much fiddling around versus a generic replacement.
Item exactly as described and not a cheap copy, arrived in good time which meant that I was able to get my mower up and running again within a couple of days of it breaking down. Many thanks.
