“Shipped quickly and arrived undamaged. The kit was missing the gas tank pick up. I called and was told a replacement would be shipped. All good so far. The reason for the two star review: None of the parts included with the kit fit. The coolant outlet of the engine is in a different place than the origonal FD620D. They included a radiator hose which was 1-1/4"ID. One end of the hose they jammed a short piece of 1"ID heater hose to reduce the diameter to fit on the engine. Unfortunately the wall thickness of the resulting hose end is too thick to fit on the connection. Even if it did fit, the hose clamps they provided were too small to fit the hose. Solution: Buy a 1" barbed coupler from NAPA and piece together the two origonal hoses off the old engine(Inlet hose is cut down to fit new engine). Kit includes 63" of 1/4" fuel hose. The fuel line for the engine and all the fittings for the tractor are 8mm which is just over 5/16". Good luck trying to attach the fuel lines. I threw them out and bought 5/16" hose. After those problems were overcome, the tractor runs great!”
