    Montgomery Ward riding mower rebuild
    I have a Montgomery Ward riding lawn mower with a PTO shaft driven roto-tiller attachment. It is a 16 Twin 656 cc. Model 33420.. I am trying to finding service manual(s) so I can rebuild it. The engine runs but the wiring has been cut spliced and or removed.

    thebriggsdude...

    The complete information on the engine is:
    Mdl-4014 type-0128 01 code-77122012

    The complete model is: Gil 33420 A This leads me to believe it may have been manufactured by Gilson!!

    I also know that Simplicity built some of the same Ward mowers.

    I think that I will be able to use any one of the mentioned wire skematics to rewire switches, lights, starter, etc..,. Do you have any leads?
