Briggs and Stratton Engine Rebuild Project

meant to say flywheel cover or shroud, i just called it flywheel, i always make little mistakes, lol. anyways i've had this engine for a long time, never had a carburetor for it, so it's been sitting in my garage for several years, until last summer i tore it down to take a look at the cylinder wall and rod bearing / crank journal to see what all it needed. I do not know what model it is, i only know that it starts with 13 in the model number, the flywheel cover is off a another engine. i think it's a 3.5 horse, it came off a mini bike. this will be made into a stroker with my other crankshaft, that i have in the video.

I have a go-kart with a 5 HP Tecumseh engine and the crankshaft is a 3/4 inch. A 5 HP Briggs would probably have the same size crankshaft. I'm going to start rebuilding engines!!! Great video!!!

@dukes20084 i hear ya. sounds like a fun project haha hope it is fixable. sometimes if it throws a rod it will hit the camshaft and either bend it, break it or bust out the cam bearings. seen taht happen a lot. thanks for watching

I am going to be rebuilding an old craftsmen push mower engine. I have no idea what horse it is and i will end up replacing a lot of the parts in know that for a fact. I do know it has to be somewhere from 1988-1998, and the motor has to be blown up because i haven't taken it apart yet and i see big medal shavings coming out of what was left of the oil that was in it.
