ariens 1986 light option.
Original Message   Dec 11, 2013 9:31 am
have an 8 hp Tecumseh engine on my 1986 ariens 924 and need to know what I need to install to mount a light on the unit? I thought I read in the book that an alternator needs to be added under the flywheel. how expensive and big of a job is it to add and what parts do I need? after all these yrs I finally think I need a light! thanks mike.

The flywheel for the alternator is different from a standard flywheel. It has magnets built in to it. There are several different versions. You need to get the one that is designed for your engine.
