My son and I want to rebuild and older 5hp B&S flathead when he comes home from school. Any recommendations on suppliers? Model Type Code 130202 0801 01 80062307 Thank You

That doesnt matter. Im REALLY surprised that no one here uses it for a waste oil drip burner. I would get laughed at driving around looking for a place to dump oil.

I use non ethanol and Star Tron fuel treatment. I'm in the north east and never have a problem. Everything fires right up in the spring. Snow blower starts right up in the winter after sitting all summer and fall.

Who makes the Briggs & Stratton SAE 30 small engine oil?

A guy told me his riding lawnmower was junk because when he tried to start it the starter would just whine. He thought the starter was shot and said I could have it. He bought a new one. I took it home and when I flipped open the hood he had the battery terminals backwards.

Yes, love my cordless drill but they're not power tools. Nobody is going to mow 10 acres, snow blow a 200 foot driveway or cut 6 cords of wood with electric.

The latest environmental buzzword is "microplastics" thats now in are bloodstreams and all these electric power tools will only make it worse. You can be happy with electric tools but we all know the reality of where they're going to end up with their batteries in a couple years. Landfills of...

If that was the case it would be run in aircraft.

Its minus 25 here today and if you leave a gas can of ethanol fuel outside it will have a chunk of ice banging around in it. If you could get the ice out it may actually make the fuel better. Non ethanol no problems in the cold. If ethanol fuel was good, it would be used in aircraft. Because...

I LOVE ethanol !!! A guy down the road was rolling his quad to the end of the driveway with a for sale sign on it. I immediately pulled over and asked him what was wrong. He said it needed a new carb and probably engine work because it will not start. I opened the gas cap and instantly knew...

I pulled the spark plug and I can see the valves moving but no compression. So I'm thinking its the connecting rod. My kid really wants to rebuild it so we will take it apart before ordering anything. I stripped out the set screw on the lovejoy connector so that needs to be drilled out too.

I don't think it does. I'll pull the spark plugs tomorrow and check.

While running it made a couple loud knocks and stopped. There's no resistance when pulling the cord. So I'm guessing the piston and connecting rod need to replaced along with the rings and gaskets.

Not sure about getting a replacement engine yet, but I definitely want to get a rebuild kit for the old 5hp Briggs. Any suggestions on which kits are best?

Thank you for the fast reply! I'll see I can find one.

I have and old log splitter made by Diddier and sold by Montgomery Wards. The engine needs to be replaced, how can I match up to a new engine? Thank You, Mike Model: 130202 Type: 0801 01 Code: 80062307
