Amazon.com : BILT HARD 7HP Gas Engine Horizontal Shaft, 212cc 4 Stroke OHV Industrial Grade Replacement Gas Motor, Shaft 3/4" (19mm) Diameter, 2-3/8" Long, 3/16" Keyway : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Did not fit. I wanted to return it. I did not see a "no returns" policy. How unhappy do you think I am. How much business have I given Amazon? How many people will I tell. And how much will I spend on Amazon in the future?

I bought this engine to replace the old engine on my Troy Bilt horse tiller. It was a bolt on fit. After filling it with oil and fuel took about 3 pulls to fire it up. Since firing it up it has only taken 1 pull to fire it, warm or cold. I’m running it at varying rpm’s to break it in without any load.One thing I can suggest to the manufacturer is to give a third option for the cable throttle hook up. I had to use the side option which puts a bend in the throttle cable and had to relocate the cable control on the tiller handle. It has 2 options, one from the side and one from the front. A third option from the rear would make it an easy universal replacement engine.I will update this review after using it for a while.UPDATE: This engine has performed perfectly. Great value for the money.

I replaced a 2007 Tecumseh motor on my tiller. Installation was a breeze. The output shaft is approximately 1/2 inch longer than the original which caused some minor adjustments to get the geometry back on the belts. Anything that was needed is readily available at TS. The motor stars easily and has more power than the original. Time will tell on the longevity, but so far I couldn't be happier.
