I have a very old walk-behind tractor. This would be VERY handy for my little garden. I also have several attachments for it including a single bottom Brinley plow with coulter.
Problem is that the engine on it is just plain old and worn out. Carb leaks even after cleaning and replacing gaskets. Fuel tank sediment bowl will not seal right. It also smokes quite a bit when it is running.
I want to replace the engine, but I keep running into problems. The original engine (as far as I can tell) is about 3 to5 hp. It has a 1 inch horizontal output shaft. Replacements I find in that horsepower range all have smaller shafts or have to be mounted too far forward to clear the gearbox. I have a 6.5 hp Briggs engine that I had as a spare for my tiller, but it simply has everything in the wrong place (most I can deal with) and the output shaft is only 3/4 inch.
Every replacement I have looked at is either prohibitively expensive or has a smaller shaft. Looking for suggestions on what might replace it. BTW, already looked at the HF 6.5 hp engine. That would be nice, but it only has a 3/4 output shaft. Next step up costs too much more.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
