So I have a clone-of-a-clone engine it's from a Rural King water transfer pump called Country Way, when I have time I'll get the manufacturer name on the emission sticker below the KS but it had a hemi head on it and some kind of carburetor. 208cc. Meanwhile I have a genuine predator engine that...

What kind of paint did you use? That looks great.

So you can cover the shipping cost for $120?

Hey guys I'm looking for a Briggs flathead 5hp I/C motor with a dual ball bearing crank and side cover. It doesn't have to be complete, as long as it has the stock air shroud, and most of the motor parts are there, head, sidecover, and crank.

I have a Newer Briggs and Stratton 3.5 HP that blows thick blue smoke through the exhaust and through the crankcase breather. I have taken off the shroud and the cylinder head to see the bore for possible damage, and only thing i saw was a fine scrape on the cylinder. The piston is fine and the...

well i've had no particular luck with that little DB's carb, or engine either...

:facepalm: why would you use a gravity fed carb? why not just use a suction carb?

duuuude! thanks for the info!:thumbsup:

Yeah, i know, BS about EPA ruining stuff, putting new regs. on small off-road engines... :censure:

thanks, but i have an old 1957 B&S 6B-S with a suction carb that i use for parts now, i have the cam from it, it's in great shape for being such an old engine. :smile:

Well, awhile ago in December (before Christmas) i bought this 3.5 H.P engine from tractor supply, and when i went to open up the crankcase and WTF? a plastic camshaft? c'mon you gotta be joking right? like you can't modify it or anything like in ChargerMiles007's video YouTube - ‪Modified...
