This is a 656cc Briggs 40 Intek V-Twin engine that I'm repairing for a friend. He's been running it for years loaded with mouse nests and they had chewed through the spark plug wire to cylinder #1. Mouse urine has dissolved a good portion of the topside cooling fins.
He really needs this soon and is hesitant to put money into it. If this were mine I would replace the cylinder head but he doesn't mow much area with it, maybe 1/3rd acre. Even if there’s enough cooling capacity I’m worried the aluminum has weakened too much.
Should I roll the dice or pony up the cash for a used head?
