Good Evening
I have a BCS 850 pro and it had a new clutch put in last year and its going into gear when the clutch is up and disengaged. It will do that a bit then after getting it warmed up some and changing gears then it slowly starts to obey the clutch a bit. Does anyone think that the...
Here's a video I made of some progress of cutting down a massive jungle of Johnson grass. A special thanks to Earthtools for the parts to get this old 715 going again. This is where the sickle bar mower excels for anyone who has ever wondered what kinds of jobs it could tackle. The only...

When installing a bcs clutch should one use the jam bolt with the locking nut to secure it against the crankshaft key? I fear it would loosen up inside eventually and possibly cause damage. Is it better not to use it or should it be used only with some form of thread locking...

I'm looking at this Acme ADN37 8hp Diesel Engine on a Mainline 725 BCS body. In the BCS gurus opinion is this thing worth fixing up? Who knows how long it's been sitting, it's missing the air filter assembly and no word on whether it starts or not. It does turn freely and...

I'm just wondering if there is anyone out there with an older Acme A220 engine block or some other internal parts for sale? (crankshaft, connecting rod, pistons etc.) It seems buying these parts through dealers is way too cost prohibitive. I'm hoping someone might have an old Acme engine or...

I was wondering if its possible to change out the engine on BCS 715 from an Acme to a Honda GX200 without a conversion kit.
If its not possible how did the guy in this video do it? As you can see he only ordered the new engine and then just swapped it out with the clutch and...

I have a BCS 715 and right after I start it the engine will quickly run super hard (very high rpms) and keeps escalating to where its immediately concerning and I shut it off. Now I made sure the throttle was at its lowest and the governor bar was also disengaged, the choke was...
BCS 715 HELP needed! [Solved]
Good Afternoon
I recently purchased a BCS 715 with an Acme A220b engine in really good condition and of course it had a few things broken on it. The broken pieces were mostly plastic except for the Throttle linkage plate. It was broken however I took it apart so...
