Hi

I have a Morrision 500 with an original 3hp Briggs and Stratton engine on it.
I'm wanting to replace this engine with a new one, I was wondering if anyone knew what size drive shaft I need to get on the new engine. The ones I'm looking at come with both 19 and 20mm shafts.

Any help will be appreciated
Regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Looks like it may be the same crank as a 3.5 Hp ,if so it will be 19mm or equivalent 3/4 inch.

If you have the 3 hp engine just use a shifter on the crank then measure the shifter opening ,if you don't
have a big enough shifter cut some paper the same size and measure that.

Cheers
Max.
