B&S 104M02-0196-F1 Motor As Replacement
By Kenneth G.
Lake Milton, Ohio
Purchased 04/15/2020 |
Review Posted 04/18/2020
This engine replaced my old Troy-Bilt mower that had a model series 12 B&S motor. The fit was perfect, coupler matched shaft, the only thing I had to do was tap the new motor for mounting bolts. The engine started on first pull.
It would have been nice if pull start would expand out so that I could pull from behind push handle. Overall, I'm happy so far. This model also has a non-change oil feature, but I will change the oil. You can't change old fashion on everything.

I recently purchased this motor to replace another one. Upon receiving it, it was unpackaged and installed within an hour. After completion, it started after three pulls and sounds good.
