Nice Video although the ring end gaps should be 120° apart not 30°. on my motor i bough at a yard sale i had to hone the cylinder for a 1 hundredth over Piston. I also replaced the crankshaft seals and the seals on the PTO. you did not use a locking mechanism for the connecting rod cap bolt nuts like the OEM bolt nut lock tabs or at least loctite blue
Excelente muy bien me gusto y es así como se debe trabajar con mucho orden y limpieza de las partes para mayor seguridad solo un detalle de mi parte para los que nos gusta para aprender la cámara muy largo hay detalles importantes que no se ven muy bien. Un saludo desde Costa Rica Cental America.
You can buy a much better Chinese engine at harbour freight or princess auto with a cast iron bore and ball bearings. In 1960 this was a great engine but it stood still while time marched on
how does the kill switch stop the spark; does it ground it or unground it, I once thought that when the handle is pulled for starting that it grounded the coil for starting, but that doesn't seem to be the case after all. I don't understand how it works to start and stop the engine except for the brake that stops the spinning.
Doing the same for my 3.5 horizontal shaft engine. What determined which case gasket to use? Since there are 3 in the gasket set, did you measure the thickness of the original gasket or did you use a dial indicator to determine the end play? What are the end play specs for this particular engine? Thanks... Louie
I have this exact engine on my lawn edger, and I've been looking for a replacement gas tank. Do you know the part number? Any help would be appreciated. I have enjoyed this video a lot.
You mistakenly mentioned the ring positions as 30 degrees offset; while they are set at 1/3 of the circle apart, correctly they are 120 degrees from each opening. A complete circle is 360 degrees, but most realize what you meant.
They’re different for each model. Yours probably isn’t the same as his which is why he said to reference the manual. You can look yours up online by looking at your model numbers specs
@@knightfallgame Mine is exactly like is, 3.5 hp, that’s why I watched his video, hoping to get the right info, I don’t like to put more torque than the one recommended by the manufacturer.
@@charger440 for all Briggs L head under 13cu in (about 5hp) head bolts 140 inch lbs, Conn rod 100 inch lbs, and flywheel nut is between 55 and 65 ft lbs, increasing with size generally. Crankcase cover is 85 inch lbs except for some weird 10 cu inch models that like more. Source: just reading it right off the Briggs service manual.
That is a great question... Sorry, you're right, I did not mention any socket sizes. I like to have my students find what size they need either through trial and error or by looking in the manual. With that said, unfortunately I do not remember the size I used for the flywheel. I will try to remember to check when I get back to school and post a reply. Thanks for watching!
What a shame, why use plastics gear against metal gear, so maybe when they break you have to buy a new one again? What is the logic of using weak parts inside the engine? No one will try to fix it for nothing, when you can buy a new one with 0 interest for 12 months to pay at Home Depot!
Cheap and good enough. Not many companies could build as inexpensive and engine that was still good enough for most home owners. Honda Stayed clear of this market because they could not compete. Even some Chinese clone Honda and kohler engines today use plastic cams. Good enough and long lasting enough. The plastic cam was an inovation Also quiet.... No one will fix it because its so cheap to manufacture a new one.

I remember teaching classes at college back in the mid 70s
It was fun and good side money 😊
That was a pretty awesome video. Thanks for taking time to create this.
Aawsome instructional! Thanks for taking the time Shawn!
Thank you very much! I’m so grateful that all this info is provided - invaluable, sir!
thank you very much for this in depth visual and informative video, very helpful and greatly appreciated !!!!!
It’s a 1000 hour engine ready for another.
You are the man!! Thus video is a life saver thanks!! 🙌
Wow, that was really cool! 👍
Great video. I think I need to watch this video a few times to understand everything in it. Thank you and best wishes.
No need to watch several times. I did this when I was 12 in 1979 all by myself without the Internet. I had the engine running 💨!
When adding oil to a gasket you are essentially starting a leak
Excelente video hermano, saludos cordiales desde Huetamo Michoacán México.
so touching for an excellent video
Great video! Thanks!

Awesome!!!
Espectacular estuve aprendiendo a armar motores. Estoy arreglando uno y me sirvió un monton
Wooow i need that beautiful engine to make a go kart 😍.

Gran! aporte. muchas gracias! pura vida! una consulta, cuanto es el torque del brazo biela?
Здравствуйте! Подскажите моменты затяжки болтов:
Шатун
Крышка картера
Крышка головки цилиндра
Маховика.
Great video !
perfekt

Sorry, I've been bad about replying to comments... I have the part number back at the school so I will look and get back to you.
Thanks!

А как Вы раскидываете зазоры поршневых колец?
Would you happen to know if a 5hp horizontal shaft Briggs and Stratton crankshaft will work in a 3.5hp horizontal shaft Briggs and Stratton engine?
Hi, to replace the piston ring I have to do all this process?
I have the exact same engine and would like to know the torque specs for the head bolts.
I like that
How thick is the feeler gauge supposed to be on this motor?
What are the torque specs on the head bolts?
What is the armature gap?
Where do you get the flywheel tool from
Don't the piston rings get spaced 120° apart?
should be
A brilliant video . I would love to see close ups and slower presentation. Cheers Ed.
Turn it down to half speed.
Good job👍👍👍👍👍👍
Anyone know the part number for the carburetor? I need to rebuild mine.
Hey mate would you have a link for that fly wheel holder.
You mistakenly mentioned the ring positions as 30 degrees offset; while they are set at 1/3 of the circle apart, correctly they are 120 degrees from each opening. A complete circle is 360 degrees, but most realize what you meant.
Glad you started it at the end.
Most of the mechanics in other videos I have watched, where kind enough to mention the torque specs!

@@rpavlik1 Thank you for taking the time to send these informations
@@rpavlik1 Do you know if the manuals are available online? I only managed to find the operating manual which I already have.
perdona! ocupo por favor! el torque del cabezote.
Hello, can you tell me what socket size is required to remove or install the flywheel?
View from the road he said in the disassembly video
@@connorssmallengines6663 No, he does not mention the size of the nut or the socket to remove/install the flywheel, nor any other nut/socket size.

Starter clutch holds flywheel on older models
No valve adjustment?
Why?
No assembly lube on the cam lobes? No reason to put oil on those gaskets.
How about the engine governor Bro?
Exactly what I was looking for. Seems nearly all youtubers stay well clear of this while my engine revs its nuts off...
The governor on this engine attaches to the magneto and uses linkages to connect to the carb.
@@shawndavis4222 mine connects the same way but is always fully open and the throttle leaver does nothing please help

Hola pero no entiendo nada, 🤔 soy español, disculpas.
great video but do all these engines have the marks to time them? that is the only thing i don't know how to do

Rebuild that nice little Briggs and Stratton engine just to put cheap walmart oil in it.
