hey taryl. does fire it up fire it up come from the movie the crow?

35:44 change out the headlights for large format LED high output bulbs, add tail lights and back up lights And you could also add turning signals all LED with a 10 amp charging system you have plenty of power. Then change out all 4 tires for Agro tires.

I've still got one on a Lowes branded mower that I still use. I bought it new in 94.

@@TractorMonkeywithJL 👍😊 I found mine at a yard sale. It's an old Lowe's too but I haven't a clue what year it is. The seat is ripped up and the whole thing looks like it came out of a junk yard but I knew when I saw that engine I was gonna buy it. Paid $100 for it about 10 years ago and it's still going strong. Wouldn't take love nor money for it!

Me too, very smooth, a lot of torque

Agreed on an early machine never seen a 2 piece intake and when he cranked up the RPM to full speed was waiting for that motor to let loose of a piston. Great video

I have the same engine on my 1986 wizard lawn tractor by western auto

I had an old Western Auto, (1992) it was 38 inch cut the 11 horsepower engine came undone, the oil slinger came apart and went between the cam gear and the crank gear. A friend gave me an 18horse 2 cylinder, it did a great job with the 38 inch mower I liked it, it ran good, started easy had more than enough Torque for my needs. I sold it to a mower shop, he was impressed with my putting that engine on the 38 inch. I think he just wanted the engine not the whole thing but he got some spare parts with the engine.

@bertgrau3934 yea, I've tuned up a few of those,and had the motor throw a rod, and had new 30 wt oil in it,luckily I had a couple of good used engines around

Right? Not a bunch of safety switches and electronic dash crap to diagnose every time ya try cutting grass first time in spring 🤷‍♂️😏🧐🤓🤨😎

@@tomtheplummer7322 I know these ones today are trash. Last maybe a few years before they start having issues. I take care of mine and its over 30yrs old and looks runs and cuts like the day I got it. Best tractor I've ever used

I got a 94 MTD tractor. Not the best thing but it takes the abuse I give it. It's kind of the in-between of lawn tractors. Not extremely solid and simple like the old ones, but a shit ton better than the new ones. Hope your old Dynamark lasts you a while!

@@motormouth2472 Me too, I can tell ya my mother bought the tractor in 1990 and it has been in the family since. One owner. I've always been the one to do the maintenance on it. I'm stupid meticulous with my stuff, so after I mowed the grass I cleaned it well. I always drained the fuel for winter storage. I think the main reason it's been an awesome tractor is because I've never ran ethanol fuel in it, and it's been going strong for over 30yrs. I hope it lasts another 30 years. I absolutely love it

@@garyalensr yeah, it probably should with such well kept maintenance. Not sure how mine will hold out

Most people as soon as something is not shiny and or running: "Junk!!! Get it out of here ASAP!!!"

What the f dose you graduating high school in joining the Army in 1984...have to do why this thing is still around?🤣🤣🤣 are you your own hype man

I would think the deck was junk. Kind of pointless then if you need it for mowing.

@@davidaix5771 Taryl asked what we were doing in 1984

In 84 my wife and I celebrated our 60th wedding anniversary

Same

Antique?🤷‍♂️. It’s not until it’s a couple decades older than me. 🎅🏻😏🤨😆

My guess the/a nest caused problems running and then it sat compounding its decline.

@@larrybe2900 definitely not. The starter was bad

@@ZeldaNumber17 starter was bad due to the fluffy nest though. they urinated into the starter and caused the bearings to seize.

My grandfather had a Dynamark tractor as well. He had it around them same time as your grandfather also - used it to mow his acre lawn in Grand Island, Nebraska. It was sold at his estate auction in 1991. The sight of that tractor sure brought back some memories.

Smooth as a Harley 😏🤷‍♂️😆

I'm more of a Kohler engine fan, however, I would also be happy to own a Briggs and Stratton engine powered tractor to. Matter of fact, the older Speedex tractors always had Briggs and Stratton engines on them to.

@@tomtheplummer7322at an idle pull the choke out a little and you'd swear it was a Harley!

I have had four good B&S opposed twins. Had one for 30 years, sold it as a runner. Lots of good things to say about them but they do use more fuel that the newer OH valve motors, I don't think because of age. On that model looks like it doesn't even need a fuel pump.

It would be an alright driveway snowplow tractor but it is still too light duty for something like plow work

@@logansylvester8093 I've seen garden tractors this same size, with same engine and same rear tires that have a small 3 point hitch on the back and will run a small bottom plow. this is the same light duty "garden tractor", it just doesn't have the 3 point hitch on the back. But it does have the bigger wheels, stronger axle and lower granny gear of a garden tractor; which is pretty cool... This thing says it's only a 16hp, but that's very conservative. Today, a 660 twin cylinder like this would be 22hp to 24hp. For example, I have a Kohler Courage, and they started out as a 540cc which was 16hp (single piston), and then moved up to a slightly larger piston to a 600cc, and now they are 'rated" 20hp to 22hp.. and this thing is a 660cc twin.. You can't really judge small engines by their HP rating; it seems like the testing has changed over the years. You're better off just comparing displacement.

How I got that mower 🤔 when I was a kid my dad had a small lawn mowing buisness for family and friends and stuff he kept about a dozen lawns a week, his name was George and the business name was George of the Jungle lawn care, I still have some old cards, I always went with him to mow the lawns, he died out of nowhere when I was 12 my mom was poor so she sold his stuff since I was to young to drive and pull the trailer, I kept the old push mower and a Ryan brand weed wacker that had the worst carbs ever. I knocked on doors in the neighborhood mowing lawns and found that dynamrk behind a shed, I made a deal with the owner to mow his grass for free all year for that mower once a week cut. Then had a old neighbor help me get it running. Down the road I did the same deal for a New craftsman push mower for a older lady just had to mow her lawn for free and I could have the mower. Mowing was a side hustle I always had until I started another distribution buisness that pays me better lol . Now I just now my 5 acres and that’s enough.

Better hope the lawn mower detectives don’t find out 😂

turn it into a race mower

Grandpas or the dynamark?

No offense but IM experience we got a new 1975 8/36 Danajunk and cut one bumpy acre for five years and the frame was cracked,the hood always vibrated against the dash making a terrible metallic sound. No possy the brakes sucked and the aluminum Briggs had no cast iron sleeve so it smoked like hell after five years! Hated that piece of shit!

@@billdowhower335 it was built on a Friday.
