These were probably the best small engine every made. I've had these with in excess of 5500 hours on them that were still running strong. Dripping or leaky carbs are a common issue on these but generally solved by a good cleaning and an inline fuel cut off switch.

Very nice. I have a simular engine , but with points. I have quite a bunch of those big Briggs engines that I got from a old man who builds racing lawn tractors. He pulls out the single cast iron engines and replaces them with aluminum V-twins.

That is a common direction that many take and I've made these conversions myself. Most notably, the 7117 that I pulled a cast 16 out of and installed the Vanguard in. But for my likes, I want my cast iron engines in place. Good on you for saving the Iron! Cheers! Zip~

Yeah, the Bowman Mufflers. Be careful. They love to fail where the pipe is welded to the can. The reproductions were missing one key attribute that the originals had that cancelled the frequency and vibrations within the muffler so as a result, they literally vibrate them selves into two pieces. Check my older videos. Just search Muffler and you'll find where I show why this happens on the reproductions. Cheers! Zip~

how are those old singles like that able to idle so slow ? heavy flywheel ? long stroke ? i have several 1990s kawasaki singles , 14 and 17 hp (great engines) but they don't sound nearly as good/solid as your old briggs at idle .
@ZippoVarga
2 жыл бұрын
You nailed it on both counts Bill. It's a combination of the long stroke and HEAVY flywheel. The idle is typically set to 1,100rpm on these old cast iron engines and 3,600 on the top end. I definitely have a passion for the old Cast Iron engines and truthfully, I don't care if they're Briggs, Wisconsin's, Tecumseh's or Kohlers. They just work! Cheers buddy! Zip~
