This 5hp engine came with the manco streaker and he told me it was his go cart engine. He said the carb popped when you tried to start it and it sounds like timeing.
1. I haven't looked under the bearing for the mark on the gear but is the crank mark supposed to line up the same too?
2. What do I need to do on the flywheel to covert it back over to a rope pull? All I have is the cover and couldn't find a used recoil assembly and it's different from my other briggs. :doah:
3, The guy had gold washers spacing the cover THEN he gooooooed gasket crap all over the place to make up the difference. WHY? Also found gold shavings in the oil.
4. Since this is a bearing engine, is it more likely a high performance Briggs?
BTW, the Gove was inside but the linkage on the outside was missing.
If I could get answers for 1-4, that would be great. Thanks GTO
