My B20 on my 142 seems to be dead. The official verdict is that the cam has worn out to the point where it no longer has enough vacuum to start properly. I'm getting a quote to rebuild it. What seems like a reasonable amount to charge for a stock rebuild? Or are there any other worthwhile options? Does anyone know much about swapping a B20 with a different make of motor? I have another post asking about swapping it out for a deisel motor. Any info would be appreciated. I want to get Helga running again w/o it costing me too much money or trouble.
