Ideas for 5hp briggs engine

[Clark125]

I’ve got an extra 5 hp briggs classic engine Ive slowly been getting running again after replacing it with a predator. Now that its running, Im looking for other ideas for stuff that I can use it for. Already have a two seater and single seat kart so looking for other ideas. Don't have a welder to make stuff.

If you can get a used high amp alternator, a battery, some other bits and wire it up...... youll have a genset welder....

Now there's an interesting thought for you!

or what about taking an old air conditioning system out of a junk car?

with a little imagination, a battery and alternator and a couple of dc fan motors rigged up you could put a portable air conditioner system together on the cheap!

it's just hot outside man...

Put a big (metal) rad fan on it so you can have a outdoor breeze for working outside through this heat!

Taking the AC out isn't all that bad idea either, you can make an air compressor with that...

Great ideas!! Maybe a giant mosquito fan trap, or find an old junker golf cart and add a live axle.
