Hello everyone, I have a quick question.

I have a Sears Craftsman YT4500 with a 26hp Briggs Platinum twin, model 445877-1565-G5. I need to order a new cylinder head but am confused as to which cylinder is considered number 1 and which is number 2. Any help would be great.

Thanks

Shawn

Number 1 is the cylinder that is closest to the flywheel. If vertical shaft the cylinder closest to the top, or closest to the front if horizontal. Some will also have the number molded into the top of the head or cylinder below the ignition module.
