Description

This is a genuine OEM short block assembly sourced from the manufacturer for lawn and garden equipment like log splitters. This is a complete motor that includes the spark plug, piston, crankshaft, oil fill tube, and cylinder head. This item is pre-assembled, ready for installation. It is an easier repair to make than replacing the whole engine.When the engine on the log splitter is not functioning correctly, or there is vibration from an unknown source, the engine crankshaft could be the source of the problem, and a new short block assembly may be needed. Damage to the crankshaft can occur when an unmoving object like rocks, tree limbs, and other debris obstructs the engine's rotation. Crankshafts are made of hardened metal that cannot be repaired. Replacing the short block is the least expensive option when the crankshaft is damaged. A screwdriver will be needed to remove the old short block and install the new one. The short block is made primarily of metal. It is sold as a single item that is pre-assembled for installation. This short block assembly is designed for MTD, Cub Cadet, and Troy-Bilt engines.
