I have an old 2005 exmark 21" model: m216kasp with the fj180v kawasaki. This is like a $1500 mower nowadays. I retired it back in 2016 after about 1600hrs of use. Was trying to change out all the self propel pulleys because imo they were worn and made the mower go slower. Anyways, never did successfully pull the blade hub off without mangling it beyond recognition and still didn't come off. The engine didn't want to turn after that either for some reason. Can I throw a new engine on this thing and be back in business? They make a kohler cv224 now which would be a big power upgrade over the fj180v
