This forum is American I guess: it doesn't seem to know about the Briggs and Stratton engines we have all over Australia. Like in the Bunnings 'Cheetah' lawn mower.
But maybe someone knows them or there's Aussies viewing the forum.
Mine has developed 'hunting'. It won't run for long, nearly dies, comes back, runs for may 20 seconds, nearly dies, comes back...
Looking at it seems to me I'd have to take the bolt out at the bottom of the fuel bowl and that's about all I know.
So I thought I'd ask if anyone can give advice or point to instructions/examples anywhere?

Yes it is mostly American. But nearly all Briggs engine are sold all over the planet. What you need to post is the Briggs model and type numbers and some even the date code in order for anyone to look them up.

Also you can try the OutdoorKing Repair forum in Aussie land. Bruce and the other members are fairly good at helping there.

Found what I can that engine is not a Briggs engine but a darn junk Chinese clone. Your best bet is to try the ODK forum link I posted. You probably get the same comments but they have seen before but are not in the USA yet.

The only the US Briggs dealer support had was on the mower 2691812 which only a few parts for the engine.

System wont let me upload the IPL but they are listing the carburetor as

I was afraid that the investment company that brought Briggs would start this screwing up Briggs product line. I ran into something similar on parts last year where I had a two year old engine still under warranty that no engine parts were available.

Wish you luck on this but apparently Briggs is not going to support it.

Okay. I'll try them. Thanks for trying. :)
