This company had a combined total of 36 employees that contributed to the campaigns of Wisconsin's Temporary Governor Scott Walker for a total of over $25,000.So Briggs & Stratton is on the Boycott list and everyone is encouraged to join and share the message.
be carefull, briggs engines DO NOT like to run open head. i had a rod break in to 3 pieces and fly out the block. It was great but it sucked afterward.
i got a 15 horse single for free- guy said it was knocking so he replaced it and threw this one in the dumpster, so i come along asked him what was wrong with it and he said it was knocking, i get it, gas, oil, battery and it started first try-and ran without knocking
lol I made the same mistake with my 3.5 hp briggs. I got it started and when I wanted to cut it, I didn't know what to do because I didn't have a kill switch hooked up!! My dad was like "just tap the head with a screwdriver so I did and it shut off. oops!!!!!!
Why does my 5hp governor rocker-arm oscillate after warming
up? The spring has good integrity, and I added a teaspoon of fuel reviver; and I also tried cleaning the throttle mouth and intake filters but it vacillates between high and low idle until it dies. Wussup?
Sounds like it might be running too lean, either by the carb being clogged/gummed up or not adjusted correctly, or it could be a clog in the line or fuel filter. (I went nuts trying to get one of my engines to stop doing that, and it ended up being a defective fuel filter, wasn't letting enough gas through.)
i have a 14.5 hp briggs and stratton ohv thats on a project that im currently workin on and possibly have a vid of it wen i get the exhaust on do u guys think that it is possible to put a glass pack on it? please reply thanx!
Gaskets were about $9 each, rings were $30 each, and rods were $35 each. If you find that it threw a rod, make sure you open it up and check for damage to the block. I found that a lot of times the block gets damaged beyond use when it throws a rod.
I also have a 25HP Briggs Intek V-Twin from a Huskee Supreme ... it also only ran on one cylinder. I inspected the motor yesterday and discovered that the intake valve on the #1 cylinder wasn't opening ... not good. Took engine apart today to discover that the cam lobe was pretty much wore down to nothing ... explains why it only ran on one cylinder. This is really disappoint seeing how the engine is a 2004 model ... so much for the Extend Life Series (ELS) motor .... what a joke!
I think that was the only time I had to do that. Forgot to hook up a kill wire, so I didn't have much of a choice. I never knew it was bad for the coil though.
That dosen't hurt the ignition at all. A buddy of mine runs the racing go karts with the built up 5 hp engines, and that's how they always kill the engine.
We hooked the positive (red) up to the terminal on the starter where the wire would normaly go, and then we hook the negative (black) end up to the block, just anywhere it would clip up; it just needs to make a good ground with the block.
i ordered an engine just like that, from mel-co on ebay and i was thinkin the same that it might be siezed or a thrown rod, but when i got it one of the exhaust valves went bad
I just rebuilt an engine very similar to this in my auto repair class... started right up after a complete take apart and rebuild... the only thing that sucks is that if you dont have the wiring harness its a bitch to get power to the carb.
Sure is. We used to use it for testing motors until we built a bench for that. Check out user moldymac and watch his 26hp B&S V-Twin video. That's the stand I made.
Yeah probably. Your rod is probably melted onto your crankshaft, you'll need a new connecting rod and you may need to get your crankshaft turned or replaced if it's real scored looking.
Such a nice sound on these

Ha! can't beat that! The motor mounting bolts were probably loose or something causing the knocking. Sweet deal.

It's not. Bad for you if you happen to get bit in the process (hurts like heck!), but doesn't do anything to the ignition.
