Mark Vizer I don’t think I replaced the engine on this chipper. I did replace the engine on a different chipper I used to have. It wasn’t that hard to do. Have to take the blower housing apart to get at the chipper flywheel to get it off the crankshaft
@@whspioneer89 it's just I had a whole tree chipper and sold it. A friend was asking me if this MTD would be good for home use so I was looking for videos on it. Thanks for the video. 😎👍 Link is to my old chipper 😂 th-cam.com/video/8PPK5lV_4GY/w-d-xo.html

That's an 8hp Tecumseh motor btw
The Indian head when the video started gave it away lol
I have same thing with stripped threads on crankshaft of 5hp B&S engine where starter attaches. Did you replace engine and how difficult was it?

How do you keep it from clogging?
Keep the blades sharp
@@whspioneer89 thanks I also find that it doesn't like to take the stuff in very well on the big chute and just sits there. Why is this?
What is the model number on the engine?
Needs new knives
Yes it did
lol.😅 it's like an oversized paper shredder.
Thanks for viewing and commenting
