got a Briggs off the side of the road! UPDATE: It runs!!!
Attached to an old tiller. I did some research and apparently the one shaft turns at 1/2 speed in reverse and is possibly the cam. The numbers off the engine are 100292 0408 01 7004027
Briggs site did nothing for me. I think I can get it running easily. Oil looks good, spark plug looks shot, compression was present with putting my finger over the plug hole and pulling the recoil. Inside of carb is clean but the bottom of the air filter is nasty. There is some old gas in the bottom of the tank that prevented rusting. What would be the value of an engine like this? It seems they are rare and could be highly desireable for a kart as it could allow for a secondary reverse setup.
