Not Bonanza I ever saw and the bearings are for a metric axel (about 0.46 inch ID). I...

    I have been experimenting with dif. paints and have had little luck in finding a spray can paint that can withstand gas! I have tried both Duplicolor high heat paint from O’Reilly and Rustolum engine paint from Lowes and found that when I painted my totally stripped and cleaned up engines the...

    New Briggs 3.5 horse flathead

    Got a name for the business owner, I can have it shipped to one of my sons in Reno if he feels more comfortable about it, no problem.

    Painting the plastic fenders ?

    I tried one from Lowes by I think Rustolum some time ago on a motorcyle fender and it actually worked just fine, flexed ok and did not crack or peel. I am thinking of doing one of my DB30 fenders with it just to see how it works on THAT kind of plastic. Not all plastics are the same material...

    How much of a power gain can I expect?

    I couldn't say either but I did one of mine in stages and went back a step a few times, trying different combinations just to see the bolt on difference. A simple change to the freeflowing air filter does make the biggest difference in power however it comes on pretty quick and not all that...

    Few questions about my old 5hp motor

    go for a toggle switch rather then a pushbutton. Reason is if you want to stop the engine and you have a pushbutton you have to hold that button till the engine comes to a complete stop, release it for even a second and it keeps on running. Toggle is dead sure to turn of the engine for keeps...

    help me give an old 2hp briggs a second life

    Piece of cake, takes about 5 min to get the spring in and 10 to get the %^#$*@ rope attached and the correct length. 2 videos run watch both. Rope should NEVER pull to the end of the spring.

    Briggs and Stratton model:80302-4015-01 Carb Help

    Maybe you can help me a little. If your engine has a 2 5/16 inch X 3/4 inch PTO can you give me your complete engine number (all 3 sets of digits) I have possibly the same engine but the PTO on mine is only 1 5/16 inch long and that is too short for me to mount a outboard clutch assy. I figure...
