Muffler Gasket 11060-7021

Dis-assembled cowling and shields. Removed head covers and replaced push rods. One valve was stuck due to valve oil seal failure. Removed head and checked valve seats. Reassembled and mowed my lawn. So far so good. Diagrams provided were very helpful. Ordered valve spring retainer by mistake as oil seal is not shown on diagram. Figured it ... Read more out when parts showed up.

I purchased this Lawn Tractor as a basket case, the owner had taken the engine apart and didn\'t know what he was doing. I inspected the major engine components and made the decision to use new gaskets and replace the push rods that he bent taking the head off the engine. My diagnosis was the intake and exhaust valves were out of adjustme ... Read more nt and one head gasket was starting to leak. The engine did have 555 hrs. on it but the short block and cylinders were of normal wear for the hours on the engine. Inspected the heads and the valves and seats, cleaned and lapped the valves just because I was there. Installed all components, Engine restarted with no problems after 10 hours I will be checking the valve adjustment again and change the oil and filter again.
