first time every time, April 22, 2008
By sunni from rochester, ny

"One of the finest engines I've ever used and above all the most dependable. It consistantly starts 1st time every time and if not, it's something I did (like swiping a bush and shifting the throttle so the choke wont engage. Smooth running, strong and efficient with low noise and currently having about 3000 hrs on a 'never opened' case speaks for itself. You'd simply have a tough time to find a better item. I should mention that I change the oil about 2x a season, so proper maintainance is required if you expect performance like mine."

Excellent Engine, April 21, 2008
By RobFL from Lake Mary, FL

"For years growing up I recall pull starting other manufacturer engines far too many times to start the job. Honda Engines are excellent quality. They start easily and run strong year after year. This particular engine I have had for years and it's still running strong."

By WFMCBones from Irving,TX

"The pulley and blade hub can be purchased online or at any lawnshop that carries snapper parts. I believe the hub is #12927. Engine starts great first pull. We use this same engine for hydraulic rescue tools(jaws of life,etc..) very reliable."

Mower engine, July 16, 2007
By w3344 from Florida

"The Honda engine is good but Northern Tool doesn't offer the blade adapter which can be very hard to find unless your prior engine was the same one. Since Northern promotes the engine as a mower replacement engine it should also offer the blade adapter."
