Yes, the aluminum block Honda needs a counterweight bolted to the bottom of the engine for proper balance. I added a 10 lb piece of steel. The 8 HP Briggs had a counter weight as well back in the day

Haha, sixdogs. You are correct: both 'keepers'.Lefty7
Now you've got two "keepers" in life. That tiller and the wife who will let you wax the thing in the house.
Yeah, that is definitely a good one.My neighbor had this unit and I bought it not running. Has a blade, and hiller attachment too. Hadn't ran in 8+ years so replaced fuel lines - cleaned carb all gunked up and starts now with a touch of the key. Tires still have ribbing in them - wasn't used much at all.
I like to find these older machines and bring them back to life, and this one went to my brother in law as he has a big garden he tends.
You brought her in to warm up and get waxed??Secondly, I've done the same for her.
I just noticed your signature line. I did not know Ben said that. I agree with him......Yeah, that is definitely a good one.
Haha. The word was shiny.You brought her in to warm up and get waxed??
