What are your thoughts? I want to modify my Gibson Tractor (15 HP Briggs and Straton) to electric start.

A Briggs engine in factory electric start has a ring gear fitted to the flywheel along with an inbuilt charging system. If you wish to use the Ez Go starter you will need to replace the V pulley with a solid wheel to make contact with the outer surface of the standard flywheel. and you will need a way of making contact to start then remove from pulley once engine fires.

ART:I haven't a clue what your mower is. I got this unit to fit on a Coleman 5KW Generator -after I went thru the labor pains of finding a starter motor AND then a whole new flywheel WITH an actual starter gear ring on it! If you have the physical room for the thing ,and know how to wire it ,and have an engine already set up for a starter motor ..it ought to fly!

it would be better to buy one with electric start. a lot cheaper. you would have to change the flywheel.

Sorry Donald S., I have know idea what a 2 cycle engine is. It seems to work pretty good though. One of my guy friends fixed the wheel for me so that turned out good. I have about a half acre to mow and it plows right through the grass with no problem. It seems to be pretty good on gas too. If it weren't self propelled though, I would never be able to finish the lawn. The key starter works like a charm too. Sorry I can't help you more.

I'll need more information to answer that. What is the model number of your Briggs engine. OR the model number of your equipment?

Personally, I doubt it. An electric motor will need nearly twice the rated power that it shows is required just to start it. Once started, it will require less. This is true for all electric powered devices. Please look at the information plate on your blower and see the electrical requirement it needs. I do believe you will need MUCH more than this little 150 watt unit.

You should be fine, however I would convert it to electronic ignition instead. you will have a lot fewer problems and issues with the system.

Absolutely! Solid power all right; Will run VHF effortlessly, and 100 watt HF easily and charge the cabin batteries to boot.. Although I had the power transformer develop an internal short in the first unit I bought (NEW), but I had a bigger spare in the junk box that just squeezed into the case. The second unit I bought on ebay, the pass transistors were fried, so I replaced them with heavier duty units. Now they both work like I want. (Will pull down the 2000i Honda Generator just by dialing the voltage you want for the load.)Same as most electronic equipment from China I guess, It ain't made in America. But, I'm satisfied with it.Gunde VE7TNN Absolutely! Solid power all right; Will run VHF effortlessly, and 100 watt HF easily and charge the cabin batteries to boot..

I would not..... Electric motors foul real easily.... I think that's why they don't provide fenders ..... 'Chuckle, chuckle'

Actually, yes. Although it has an electric start, the design of the plug housing is such that I could not get a plug to fit. I was surprised, and pleased, when I was able to start the machine with one pull. Maker certain you have all the valves open and the cylinder primed and you should not have a problem.

Bought one a few months ago and, no, it's not electric start.Starts easily, but the old fashion way. Pull the cord.

this kit can be used on either I beleive, mine is manual with a conversion to electric, all you do is add the motor component:), motor makes it so much more user friendly

if that what you want to do. just remember if you need to disconnect the cord in a hurry. The way I look at things why buy it if your going to modify it. Go to the parts house and buy and build it your way

I don't know the engine of your tractor? Is it a Briggs & Straton? If yes, its OK. For other engine, I think its usable provided that the engine has a fuel pump and that the power is less than 30HP.
