Tecumseh AH-81/AH-82

[Erwin4734]

Recently picked up a Tecumseh AH-81 that missing the carb, pull start and exhaust. Haven't found alot of Info on what's compatible as far as the carb and exhaust. I've got an old Tillotson hl-27 from a 1963 Homelite 700D that I may try. Found a YouTube video where someone made a belt pull start, my reach out to him for info on it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Salvage and polish for a unique mantelpiece. Too much trouble to refurb to running status with the parts you're missing for the power output available. Or maybe that's just my pessimism coming out. Very cool though.

Anderkart or Karl are the ones you are going to want to talk to about this. Please be patient until they can chime in.

Sorry I do not know alot about these, but I have a small engine manual with a 1964 copyright, and it
covers the Ah81-82's. It shows pictures/ gives numbers for a period dual tillotson setup ,
with progressive linkage that kicks the 2nd carb in at 4500rpm. And other period kart racing mods.

Just image if today the shop manuals told you how to hot rod the engines, different times.
