Well technically 1251.7

It has the original Mag20 in it that as far as I can tell has never been opened up. I got it from a guy who brought it home from a local water treatment plant. (They had bought it new) He used it twice then decided it was far to large for his 1/3 acre lot... LOL.

I ended up changing the 50c to a H60 and have used it for 3 years now.

So doing the math: 1251hrs / 26yrs = 48.1 hrs/yr.
turns out it's had an incredibly easy life only having to go to work for one 1 week and 1 day a year!

Wish I could do that. All kidding aside, I know 1250+ hrs is getting up there, do it gets all the proper maintanence it needs. The 1980 782 has no hour meter, but KT17 series 1 was so tired it barely started. It's been replaced by a Mag20 with 850hrs.

I wish I knew how many hours the 128 had. It's been re-ringed and had a bearing installed on rod, but otherwise original. It has been parked for 4 years now cause I tossed a head gasket and been using the 782/2072 ever since.

So how many hours do your cubs have?
