1862 motor conversion
Here is a conversion/motor swap for my 1862. The M18 that was in this tractor, was giving me problems with the oil seals staying in. I tried everything I could think of to fix this but it still kept leaking oil out the front seal. After 3 new seals, it was getting expensive to fix and I am not the biggest Kohler fan. I like Briggs so here is how I put a Briggs & Stratton flat head in my 1862. The adapter on the flywheel was off a pulley for the gray craftsman series 2 tractors. It fit with some holes drilled out so they matched up to the Kohler bolt pattern. I just ran the bolts the other way and it worked. But I will let the pictures so what it looks like.
