Tecumseh Products Company closes its small engine manufacturing division and sells off its Peerless transmissions business unit to Husqvarna Outdoor Products.

When did Tecumseh stop making small engines?

Tecumseh engine products at one time were sold in over 120 countries. In December 2008, the company closed its engine manufacturing division.

Is Tecumseh engine same as Briggs and Stratton?

Today Tecumseh is no longer making small gas engines at all, and all Briggs small engines (for snowbowers/lawn mowers/ garden tractors) are all made in China.
