Sir you just earned another subscriber. This shows proof of concept with a minimum about of fabrication. You got it all running and driving. Would like to see some long term follow up to see how well the pairing is holding up.
I just removed my locked up CCKB 20hp Onan from my 444 bobcat. It locked up because the previous owner blocked an oil passage with gasket maker. (I just released a video today of it running again). I don't intend on putting it back. I'm going the 670 predator route also. Thank you for the key switch information! Doc Martin
I just bought a gehl 2600 off a guy for $200. He said the original 25hp Onan gas job was running like crap and he just wants it off his property. Its in good shape, needs a little TLC, but my idea was to throw this engine in there and just use its around the farm here and there. Problem is, you made it look way too easy lol. Looks like im going to attempt it now.
Holy crap that’s a good deal! Not sure I made it look easy, actually one of the most comfortable engine swaps I’ve done. Been running it all summer with no issues, good swap!
Thought about it, figured since the original motor did not have them it might be over kill or there was a concern about them tearing lose, not sure. Vibrations are fairly low considering it is mounted solid.
Make that another subscriber he did a very good job but I got to ask him one question hey buddy what are you doing with that old motorcycle sitting on the wall
Original onan had the exhaust exit out, so just followed their lead 🤷 Running it at a higher rpm now, wanted to be nice to the engine until I got its first oil change…running wide open now 😁

The predator has its own vacuum fuel pump already
Yea, after I took the air cleaner assembly off I was able to see it
Thanks for the video, I might have missed you mentioning this but why not have rubber isolators on the engine mounts?

You never put the exhaust pipe out of the engine compartment and it sounds like it should be revved up hhigher when operating it
