Title: Tecumseh 17hp single vibration
Post by: woodduck1972 on March 24, 2014, 09:12:52 pm

Which is the best motor to build. The one with dual balancers or the one with the single balancer? I have motors that are made each way. I'm looking for the one that'll vibrate the less with them removed.

They will both shake the same. No noticeable difference between them. If you have loose fillings, they may fall out if you are below 1500 rpm.

Thanks for the info. Was just nervous about bolts and things vibrating loose on the motor. Hopefully it holds together. LOL!!!

Blue Lock tite does wonders
