For sale:  Troy Bilt rear tine tiller - "Horse" model - 6 HP Tecumseh 
engine.  $450.00.

This is the classic cast iron Troy Bilt 6 HP workhorse.  Much higher 
quality than the current Troy Bilt (made by MTD) tillers - these things 
last forever.  Good condition - mechanically excellent but has collected 
a bit of rust over the years.  I am the second owner.  It's a late 70s 
model with a late 80s Tecumseh engine - the first owner replaced the 
original Tecumseh engine in the late 80s.  It starts on the first pull 
and runs strong.  Includes original, detailed Troy Bilt factory manual.

I recently gave this tiller a full tuneup:

   * new spark plug
   * replaced engine oil (30 wt)
   * replaced transmission oil (80W90)
   * cleaned and oiled air filter
   * cleaned and adjusted carburetor
   * replaced fuel hoses
   * adjusted and oiled all shift linkages
   * also, the muffler was replaced a few months ago.
