OHV, small briggs, MTD 20" mower how to get 'bottom' off
« on: July 29, 2018, 05:04:30 pm »
Got the engine off the mower, blade and hub off shaft.
Loosened 6 or 7 small bolts and separated bottom case from top/cylinder case about 1/4 inch to get all oil out.

Do I just beat on it to get the bottom case completely off, seems to be something holding it.

Polish the end of the crankshaft,the rust and stuff on there won't let it go through the bushing in the case
