    Husqvarna 350 chain saw no spark unless i remove spark plug

    It looks like you have confirmed that the original module is bad, and sounds like the new replacement module may also be bad. And most modules use a .010 air gap. Business card is closer to .020 which may be too wide. So try setting the gap closer and see what happens.

    Briggs & Stratton OHV Plastic Engine No Compression

    Either have to lap the new valves into the seats or have a seat cutter set like the neway. I have the Neway seat cutter and valve face cutters, but I probably wouldn't if it hadn't been required dealer tool for either Kohler or Tecumseh. I don't remember whch.

    Bad Boy Maverick HD right tank not flowing

    Something is goofy. The parts diagram shows a 3 way valve but the service manual shows a 2 way valve with the on-off lable for the valve on at least the 2025 model

    RPM Surging

    Carb needs a thorough cleaning or a little more technical explanation. A carb has two fuel circuits. The idle circuit and the high speed or load circuit. When an engine is running without any load it is running on the idle circuit even at full throttle. When you engage the deck the load...

    Briggs Carburator Help

    According to Briggs the molded fuel line is 791766. The carb should be a 591925 but references a part requirement that isn't used on this engine. Intake gasket is 692555. Briggs doesn't reference the air cleaner gasket but it may also come with the new carb along with the spacer gaskets...

    You are in the early stages of a blown head gasket. Blown head gasket between the cylinder wall and the push rod cavity is the second most common issue with the Intek single cylinder engines.

    Briggs and Stratton 150cc hard to start.

    Lets start with the model number information from the engine. So we can see which of the carb styles you have. Some systems were known to have issues with the air filter backing plate warping when used with primer systems and prevents priming.

    Briggs Intake Manifold Gasket

    I haven't seen any crack from people trying to use the paper gaskets, but I have seen them warped at the mounting flanges so bad that the O ring won't even make contact with the head mounting surface after somebody tried to use the paper gaskets, and the mounting ears compress into the paper.

    Vote your trans-axle lubricant of choice #00 vs Cornhead vs Bentonite vs 75-90 gear oil with Lucas oil stabilizer.

    It isn't so much as a preference to what you use. It is what the manufacturer recommends. The old Peerless gear transaxles used bentonite in most cases but there was a few that used 75W90, and the Peerless hydrostats used 10W30. Hydrogear uses 20W50, but Tuff-Torq recomments synthetic 5W50...

    Briggs Intake Manifold Gasket

    If the existing O rings are in good shape then reinstall them. Don't remove and use the other gaskets or try to put the gaskets over the O rings. The plastic intake that is used with the O rings is not rigid enough to properly torque a normal gasket. And could create an air leak at the junction.

    Snapper series 6 Briggs model 191707 type 251501 Having trouble removing drive pulley .

    The disc should unscrew from the shaft collar. The shaft collar is held on by if I remember correctly 2 set screws, and then should slide off if not stuck to the shaft.

    Here is the correct plug for comparison Notice the thread length difference and the washer instead of the tapered seal

    If you are talking about the tan ring next to the float vavle that is the seal for the fuel solenoid on the bottom of the bowl.
