5hp Briggs And Stratton Engine

[j.concepcion54321]

Hey guys i have a 5hp briggs and stratton engine that runs. The crankshaft is bent so i cant use it. if you have a crank laying around then this is perfect for you. The engine runs strong but it has been sitting with some gas for about a month or 2 so it may need a carb cleaning. I started it up today and ran it for about 5 minutes. Runs Awesome!! All parts are there and are all good. If you need any parts let me know i will probably let them go cheap, or i can sell the whole engine.

Please let me know!! i need to make some cash for a current project!!

Thanks,
Josh

Why would you not drain it?

Runs Awesome!!

Then why would carb need cleaning? Because gas has been sitting in it that you could drain?
Does this make sense?

well it does run good, so i said that, and i didnt drain the gas since i didnt think it was necessary. i said the carbs MAY need cleanging because it sat for a little with some gas. also cause it takes around 6 pulls to start it.

look are you interested?? or just bein an ***??

Do not start trouble friend.
That's not the way this forum operates.
I simply made a statement and asked a question with consideration of purchase.

 

[j.concepcion54321]

ok then. my apologies. (idk about spelling on that last word)

get a new crank and you can sell it for more as a useable engine

 

[j.concepcion54321]

how much would the parts sell for on ebay?? like if i posted everything seperately like the carb, the tank, the exhaust, the block, the flywheel, the blower housing, the tins, the recoil, the cylinder head, the pistons???

 

[Bluethunder3320]

youd have to figure that one out.

just look on ebay and price yours like a dollar cheaper than others....

if i was you i would look up the part# and search it on ebay for a new crankshaft.
