Anybody have a Troy-Bilt Pony tiller?
Hi
I've just bought one with no manual and I want to change the gear oil. Is it just regular 90 wt or something more exotic. The tiller is 15-20 years old and has a 5 hp Briggs. Brian, in Cedar |

Brian, in Cedar Look for a Briggs and Stratton manual. Libraries are full of manuals. Some manuals are even online now. (although that was Black and Dekka) I suspect it's not an outboard motor but see if you can identify the model first. http://www.briggsandstratton.com/ Or buy one: http://www.asecc.com/manuals.html -- Cheers, Loki [ Brevity is the soul of wit.

Nothing goes very fast in there... Troy Bilt always used to guarantee a user's manual to any current owner; don't know if MTD (is it?) will continue that, but it's worth a try. For another poster: The engine book won't help; we're talking about the gearbox that powers wheels and tines. Ah for the days when I could just drive less than hour over to Troy and get parts off the shelf...

They used SAE 140 from the factory. |
