[quote="Chris Adkins":2vmwrjxn]we put 8000 hours on an original
Prochem Legend with an 18 Horse Kohler.
wow..that's a lot of hours for an air cooled engine.
Not unheard of, but not the norm.... which is generally in the 4000 to 6000 hour range
Was it replaced/rebuilt once, Chris?
Rich, any TM that is well maintained should get well over 3000 hours.
So, "IF" well maintained, there's should plenty life left on it.
also, if the frame isn't rusted out, you can virtually keep any TM running for ever by replacing/servicing the parts/components that wear out or break.

Original engine, pump and blower. We took extremely good care of it.
