Two different starters were used on that model engine, depending on the manufacturing date. I suggest you do one of two things. Go to an authorized Briggs service dealer and have them contact their distributor for the correct part number or contact Briggs directly through their website. Make sure you have the date code.

Yep, I am a beaten man!:)

Re: Date code..........I noticed in the B&S website date codes with a lot more digits than xx-xx-xx......I suppose a distributer will be able to figure that out.
I did not see in their website a method to contact them directly via email nor by phone. I'll call one of their "Diamond" distributor locations.

I appreciate the advice,

The issue is they are showing the starter for the use after 140601 but nothing for the before numbers. And the new series starte doesn't fit the old series blowing housing. I suspect the only way to get around it would be to order the starter/blower housing kit.
