I have a disassembled Briggs 11hp vertical shaft engine that I want to get out of my garage. I was going to bore/stroke it and put it on my riding mower but I don't have time.
It has a bad rod bearing (would have been replaced with stroke plans anyhow) but other than that it's fine and functional. It was running when I took it apart, just rattled a lot due to the rod bearing (er, bushing in this case).
The engine is around 9-10 years old and has about 6 summers of lawn mowing a 1 acre yard on it. It was well maintained, and I'm not sure why the bushing failed. It was on my Dad's mower so I never even had access to it to pull the governer and such.
Anyone want this thing? Speak up soon please.
Thanks,
Pete
