Aspera HBL 40 piston con rod

Enter a word or two to search the forum section and click the Search Forum button.

Hi all,

 

I'm hoping someone can help me or at least point me in the right direction.  I have a old (I assume from the 60s or 70s) Tiller with a aspera HBL 40 engine, it recently packed up and upon striping the engine I have found the piston con rod has broken, I have done some searching to try and find a replacement and I can find ones that are for a Tecumseh but I just don't know if these will fit.  Any help would be great.

There is some interchangeability between Aspera and Tecumseh but the problem is that they each used their own part numbers for the same item  which makes searching difficult and leaves more room for error than one might wish for if importing a part..

Possibly less hassle to find a decent used Briggs or Honda, or even have a look at one of the Honda "look a likes"  - Loncin are good.
