16 HP Engine Mounting Bolts
 

I haven't posted here for a while. I've been occupied elsewhere for a while.

Anyway, I found that one of the engine mounting bolts on the 1650 is missing. However, I can't seem to find the specs on the bolts either on PartsTree or in the manual. It seems like these would be easy to find somewhere. I looked around on the forum and founds lots about engine mounting bolts, but nothing that helps me find the specs (or part number). At this point I'm feeling both frustrated and somewhat stupid.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I'd just take one of the others out and measure it.

I am thinking it is a 3/8 thread about 1 1/2" long.

I was going to do that, but I have no way of knowing whether the bolt that I remove is the correct grade. However, if all else fails, that is what I will do.

The proper bolts have to be specified somewhere, though.

Thanks

If you are talking about the bolts that screw into the pan just about anything is strong enough. Buy some grade 8 bolts and the bolt will be the last thing to fail.

:ThumbsUp: True that! :beerchug:

I use grade 5 bolts. Length is about 1-1/2 inches 3/8-16 thread.
