If you are loosing spark after running the engine, I would be replacing the coil since it sounds like it is experiencing heat sink failure. And the model and serial number from the tag would contain the info we need to assist with parts. Generac likes serial numbers for the parts lookups on...

Correct, Those engines don't come with exhaust. But for the 35 HP vanguard horizontal shaft you are basically limited to 3 mufflers The 846246 mid mount oil filter side discharge or the 845741 high mount starter side discharge and the 846154 high mount center discharge. Pick one that...

The serial number of your scag would assist us in looking up the correct version. But from what I am finding it appears Scag is suggesting that you need to use the muffler supplied by Briggs for that engine.

Have had plugs were you could twirl the ceramic in the metal shell. Also the ceramic is porous and since most plugs are slated more toward EFI systems anymore they no longer have a sealant coating. Therefore the ceramic will absorb gas when you flood the engine, and gas is conductive...

Nothing will make you pull more hair out then a champion plug. The only plug that used to list a 25% misfire within acceptable range of operation in their spark plug catalog.

Not unusual for hydraulic oil to be 100 degrees above ambient air temperature. And with a hydrostat system they are not continuous flow from pump to cooler to tank. Depending on efficiency of the system most of the oil gets return between the pump and wheel motor multiple times before...

Some starters are available depending on the actual 41 model number. Some of those trimmers with multiple brand names were subject to the starter housing warping causing the recoil pulley to bind.

Haven't seen it on that engine but have seen issues with the bottom bearing on the Briggs twin OHV inteks wearing funny allowing oil to leak when the crankshaft is shifted to the side.

Keep in mind that 15w50 used inside of an air cooled engines normally sees temps of 275-300.

OIl pump driver. some motors use a supplemental oil pump which is driven by the cam. if you don't have an oil filter or provision for an oil filter on the side of the oil pan, then that part is not used.

And that is the downside of electrical issues. You can spend hours and hours tracking down and repairing what in some cases us a minor repair that took half a day to find. Will spend part of tomorrow going through the wiring harness on a 2009 Yamaha 700 that a squirrel made the decision to...
