[trailbronc]

i just finished building this 5hp briggs for a guy here in AL...tore it down, honed it, ported and polished it, completely rebuilt, carb rebuilt too, took apart and wire wheeled all the bolts and screws and other various parts...painted the block burnt orange, couldn't decide on a color for the shroud so i left it priimer:laugh:...hadnt gotten to crank it up yet, was gonna use an electric drill to start it but it has too much compression:laugh: cant wait to hear her run!!

Does it have a hot cam in it? If it has the stock cam it should be quite easy to start.
