I just extracted a Tecumseh 2-banger from an old snowblower. Although rather dirty, it appears mechanically sound; the piston is free and there's compression, and I get a spark when I manually rotate the crank.
Apparently this is an 8219 series engine, and the one online source still shows parts and diagrams for same.
Main thing I'm worried about is the pulley on the end of the crank. I've tried the penetrating oil bit, the banging on the end of the securing bolt, and a go with a gear puller on the pulley itself.... Nothing has moved yet.
I'm thinking a centrifugal clutch assembly can be had that will go right on this thing, if only I can get the pulley and associated parts loose.
Any ideas?
