I am rebuilding an 11hp Briggs and Stratton engine for one of my kids karts. This engine is getting shaved eyebrow, cleaning up the ports, lapping valves, new rings, exhaust and possibly a different carb. I will post progress as well as what is already done soon. I have a question first though.
It is a Syncro-Balanced I/C engine. It is not the type I have seen with the couterweight hanging from the crank shaft with a rod connecting it to the side of the block.
This one has 2 gears in the crank case cover that mesh with a gear on the crank. I am wondering if anyone knows how these are supposed to be set up when putting it all back together? There are 2 bolts in the side cover that are behind the gears, which looks like they line up with the holes in the gears themselves. I am assuming they are for the Timing process when reassembling? Anyone know for sure?
