Troy bilt horse

[Robbo chopo]

Just got a old horse. It was missing the breather cover. That's no big deal. Put gas in it and it started pouring out of a little brass tube. Any help???

I will post the sn in a few to see if you guys can help me get the year down.

The sn is 505283. Any help will be great.

TB Horses were manufactured with a variety of different engines. From your post It appears you have a gas leak. Find the leak and fix it. Some engines have a vacuum powered fuel pump which can spew oil and possibly gas if the vacuum line is compromised. You can find a wealth of information at this site.

If you haven't already found the year it is an oct/nov 1980 model.

Thanks. Any idea where I can find a air filter housing?

What engine does it have? If a Briggs you can go to their web site. You will need all the numbers on the engine or take all the numbers to a small engine repair shop and they should be able to get one for you

Thanks for all the help. Got it running and tilled my garden today. One great tiller.
