Yes, the engine vibrates but I'm not sure it's abnormal. I don't have any thing to compare it to other than an old B&S 8HP vertical shaft that is a lot smoother than my K321. Any suggestions on what to look for to reduce the vibration would be appreciated.
I reinforced the engine cradle and replaced the rubber mounts with solid mounts. While the engine was out this time I noticed the pilot bushing in the drive plate was worn out allowing the drive shaft to run out of align. We'll see if that helps.
