Hi, I have an old Troybilt chipper shredder that the previous owner installed a 13hp Briggs on. Came with a 10hp Tec that blew. Anyway, it is hard to start because of the way he ran the belts and I want to put a centrifugal clutch on it to make it easier to crank. So, I bought the clutch and it is supposed to be attached to the crank by a bolt going through the middle of it. For the life of me, I cannot find a bolt that will screw in there. The numbers on the engine are Model 245432, Type 0235E1 and Code is 00011949. Local dealer said I could go to the Briggs site and it should have that information. Well, I wasted 2 hours yesterday searching everywhere there and could not find any info on it. No idea if it is SAE or metric. It does look like right hand thread from what I can see. But certainly could be wrong. Any suggestions? Bolt needs to be about an inch and a quarter long to hold in the clutch properly. Thanks for any help
Michael

If you can't find the specific bolt, make one. If you have a grinder....... Bolts are cheap.

Appears it should be a 7/16-20 tapped 1 inch deep
