My chipper/shredder has a B&S OHV horizontal engine, and my Ariens 2-stage snow blower has a Tecumseh OHV horizontal engine, both from around 2008. Both still start reliably and run well, so my answer is "never", or "not yet". I will probably check the snow blower engine in the spring. Lately, after seeing so many YT videos recently of outdoor equipment engines that are OHV and are out of spec, I am thinking that the equipment might work better and last longer by keeping things in spec.

I think that engine is the Intek, which I consider to be their attempt to take the very good Quantum flathead engine and make it an OHV. I personally would rather have the Quantum. The flatheads had a better tolerance for operating in rough conditions. They withstood misuse and abuse much better because of their flathead design wasn’t so picky. Cam pushed Tappet, Tappet pushes Valve, heavy spring pulls valve shut. Simple. OHV means Cam pushes Tappet, Tappet pushes push rod, push rod pushes rocker arm, rocker arm reverses direction of force to push valve. More parts to wear, more places for things to go wrong, weaker springs , all made lighter and weaker to cut weight. An ordinary homeowner could own a quantum powered lawnmower for 10 or 15 years and never put enough hours on it for the valve train to need adjustment. Even it oil changes were neglected, the quantum kept going. The principle of KISS definitely applies here.

2 years have passed, so maybe you won't see this. I have a 1980's version Snapper push mower. I was mowing my lawn with no problems until the grass plugged up the chute. Instead of stopping immediately, I tried to make it to the end of that line and, instead, the engine stalled. Since then it is VERY difficult to start. If I remove the air cleaner I can get it to run, but with lots of sputtering and sooner or later it stalls again. One thing I didn't know about that is a concern is "hitting a rock." I did hit one that made a hard noise though the mower continued just fine until much later on when it stalled. There is gas. The spark plug connection is good. The plug itself looks fine. (I do not know the proper gap and, as I said, it was running fine.) I am nearly 75 years old and, truthfully, pulling it at least 100 times trying to determine what is going on and if I could get it running again was a lot more than I wanted to endure. So bottom line? I have 2/3 of an acre to mow, I live in a tropical area with lots of rain (meaning I'd better get this done when I have a chance because it could rain again at any moment), and I am out of ideas. Thank you so much if you actually see this and can suggest anything.

I read most all my comments if I see them so thank you for watching and commenting. If it was me, I'd do two things, which is to do a compression test. This will let you know how healthy the engine is. A worn out engine is really difficult to start. If the test shows that's it's still good, I would look at the flywheel key. If the mower hit something hard, it could cause the key to "slightly Shear" which will "advance" the ignition timing. If the engine is running when it happens you won't notice it, but when starting it, having the ignition advanced will make it extremely tough to start. Hope that helps
@pineapplehouseonline2750

@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE I appreciate this a lot! Don't know what the "flywheel key" is or where to find it. I can add this. Pulling the cord I can definitely feel the compression. This morning I cleaned the sponge air filter but, it being wet, simply put the air cleaner cover back on and tried again. Within a couple of pulls it starts and runs smoothly...for 5 seconds. Then it stalls again. (Almost like it is running out of gas. In fact, if I pull the starter cord a few times slow, assuming that is priming the engine, it starts again within a pull or two. That further makes me think of gas, but what could have happened and what do I do about it? I have no idea.)

My mower became impossible to start. It was the first one I had owned that was OHV. This was before I started watching mower repair videos, so I was stumbling in the dark, and didn't yet know to check valve lash. Somehow, I did it anyway, probably because I was out of other things to check, and it started right up; just like in this video. So, anyway, I, for one, didn't have any idea that this was a thing to check, much less keep up with. I imagine a lot of other mower owners are the same, and either replace the mower or pay to have it repaired. I've never seen this problem with a flat head, yet it seems fairly common with OHV. Do the rocker arm bolts just vibrate loose with use, or what?

Your engine model type and code are on the valve cover or stamped on a piece of metal above the muffler, put the model and type in parts lookup (such as partstree) if you still can't find the right filter, send me the engine info and i will look it up thru the Briggs & Stratton dealer only lookup which is up to date and current and give you the air filter number. as for adjusting valves, no need to check them, only adjust them when they are suspect with a problem. Most Briggs engines built after 2009 (2010 to current) use RTV instead of a gasket, push mower engines, the smaller ones do still use gaskets, 10hp and over use RTV.
