    We need one rebuilt. We are in Columbus, Ohio and our previous guy retired. Know of any companies?

    You might want to replace it. We were in the same position last year and for the $ difference, it was worth the investment.

    I have rebuilt a few of these motors and I have replaced a few. Is there something wrong with the motor or do you think it is just getting weak and tired? Depending on the hours on the motor, it may cost more, but beneficial in the end to replace the motor. I would recommend getting the model and serial number off your motor and either go online or call http://www.jackssmallengines.com and http://www.repowerspecialists.com. I have bought from both in the past and they were very reasonable in price. If you don't think much is wrong with the motor, maybe just tired, you may even call around to other local golf courses and see if they have a mechanic or equipment tech looking to do some side work might be willing to rebuild it. I am down near Dayton, and may know somebody and I will check with him.
