The new Vanguard single-cylinder commercial engines make engine repowers easy, as they are a direct, drop-in replacement for the Honda GX line.
"The Vanguard 18 HP bolted right up no problem to the ExMark Turf Tracer. What I love most about this engine is the ease to get to everything within the engine. The crew has been running it for four months and really like it; starts easy, quiet and no power issues. Overall a great experience!"
