Here is some info on an older TroyBuilt Mower.
I have a 2004 42" TroyBuilt Bronco That I bought Used a couple of years ago. It"s built fairly strong. It has an Intec 18.5 hp v-twin engine. It ran real strong, quiet, smooth. It has a gas pedal and when floored the mower is pretty quick. I like the way the lawn looks when mowed with it. Fairly easy to maintain. It even has a beer can holder. Thats what sold me.LoL
And now for the rest of the story. Either the PO went by the old saying close enough or he couldn"t read numbers. I"ve had to replace the main mower deck belt three times. the first was when the belt he put on broke and the other was because the bearing in one of the spindles from the belt he had on it went out and broke my new correct belt. I"ve also had to replace the main drive belt. Again the PO used an incorrect belt. When I replaced the deck belts the deck took about 5 min. tops to remove. The drive belt took awhile its kind of hard to get to.
But overall except for those couple of learning periods it"s been a pretty good mower. Untill lately that is. Couple weeks back while mowing one of the piston connecting rods broke and knocked a 2 inch dia. hole in the side of the engine. The engine still starts and runs. Oh well, here we go again. Don"t know if I"ll repair this motor or get another yet.
