Hello
First time poster.
I have a Poulan Pro mower with a Briggs and Stratton 675 EX series 190cc (model 126M02-0131-F4) engine.
Quite a reliable engine for the last 6 years. Yesterday while using it, the engine made a loud pop and died.
It will not start, but turns. There's compression and when I pull the cord you can feel air being pumped out without the plug hole.
When the plug is put in the thread just a single turn you hear a clanking noise when the cord is pulled. The piston is not hitting the plug.
I've included a few pics.
Can anyone help? I'm trying to decide if I should fix it or get rid of it.
Thanks in advance.
