Haha! Really?! White? :D

You don't even have to remove it. Just disconnect that rod that comes from it to the throttle.

No problem, PM me your address so I can calculate out the shipping costs on USPS :)

Yeah! :eek: $5... wish there was such a deal over here :mad2:

Click to expand...

Better than never been to one and having to buy all the engines you have :mad2:

That particular 2HP I got for $50 a few years ago. Last second snatch. My very first flathead! Always starts on 1st or 2nd pull.

Heck, I've even ran 2 stroke mix on it when I ran out of straight gas! I'll post a video of it running when it finishes uploading :sifone:

Well if it hadn't been started for a while, that 2 stroke mix probably did more good than harm. Good upper cylinder lubricant.

Replied to PM :)

? Oh, so far... eh:

Removed Governor
Single Stage Header
Billet Air Filter Adapter
K&N Clone Air Filter
Briggs 3.5HP Cam w/ Decompressor Removed

Tomorrow, probably a bit of porting (if needed). Maybe take the jet from a 3HP and place it in the 2HP...

Oh, and today I rebuilt it. 1 1/2 hours (hone, cleanup, new rings, cleaned gaskets). It's still on its break-in period.

And still starts on first pull. That video linked above is without the 3.5HP cam (oh, BTW it's plastic). I just uploaded a video after the rebuild and cam. Sounds sweet! :D

No, you file the ends of the rings. Briggs doesn't even make certain rings in std and .010 anymore, you have to file fit a .015 over ring.
