Hi all. Long time since my last post. I have decided not to sell my 2000 Argo Bigfoot, but instead replace the stock 18hp Vanguard with an EFI engine if possible. Does anyone have experience with such a conversion? I'd like to stick with air cooled for ease of conversion, but H2o cooled is ok if needed. Thanks

I think the efi engines are too new to market, remember when Kohler did them a few years ago. Everyone had BIG problems. I would let Briggs sort out issues for a couple of years before I bought one. Jeff McBrayer |

Diesel would be cool too. Just not happy with carbureted engines. Very fussy when cold. |

Diesels are very heavy for one with much power, but sure are neat. |
