Old B&S engine model

well the nozzle came out pretty easy, it was in some sea foam for a few days. Turns out the carb itself was in great shape, the fuel tank needed a good pressure wash and the closer valve was fouled. After it was back together it popped up on the second pull.
 
Glad to hear you’ve got it running. Most people don’t take the time to let us know if the problem was resolved or not, which we appreciate.

I double checked the numbers and they are correct with what is stamped on the flywheel cover. Odd thing is that parts diagram shows it having a tank mounted carb, where the carb on this unit is a flowjet?? Maybe someone found the flywheel from one engine and it just happened to fit the other?? This could get fun.

For what it's worth - I have model# 82902, 0247, which does have the carb w twin stacks in the gas tank. 1964 vintage I believe. - callhow
 
Very common to find a blower housing on the wrong engine.
You have to be a little caeful when using them on engines of unknown source.
