I get a lot of machines through my shop every day. Over the course of their life the B & S
M 2159 02
T 0111 E1 (and B1)
C 050330 ZA
These engines are to be purchased at your own risk. I service many machines under one year old with this engine. The problems I have encountered are:
Broken pushrods, loose crankcase cover bolts, cracked blocks, loose head bolts, broken plastic cam gears, broken plastic governor gears, and today, the magnet separated from the flywheel! Buyer beware!
Just want to give everyone a "heads up"
I just got another one of these engines in and the valve keeper retainer broke and the piston kissed the valve and broke it too. Now, the piston and head are shot. What a lemon these engines are.
