Cool, I saw and posted about that too. I think it’s the same video as well. I think I’ll stick with my 6 mph C-141 though.

Richard: That Ido not know. We had a couple Wheel Horse walk behinds at a Show In Jacksonville, Illinois several years ago but I never was up close to it to see what the hood was made of.

The crowd watching him was about as quirky as the song.

I was lucky, no problem with the muffler bolts. After I found the loose carb bolts, I knew that was the problem. I could have just retightened the bolts but they did not have lock washers so I wanted to remove the bolts and add lock washers. My bolts had both a hex head and a torx head so I was able to use a short torx bit with a box end wrench to tighten them. I see you have lock washers. Were they factory or did you add them?

Your advice is well taken Bill. The part that gave me trouble was on top and easily visible. A picture would have saved me some time. I searched thru over 50 pictures in the OM till I found the throttle configuration that showed the part in question. Seems Briggs used a different arrangement for every engine.

@Lane Ranger, didn't the Pond's make a fiberglass hood for the "Walk Behind" too?

1054 (953) Hydraulic Unit Rebuild
1054 Project replied to 1054 Project's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
So.....drill them out? I assume the "U" bend in the spring needs to sit under the roll pin? -
Thanks Chuck, Paul, and Garry. She's starting with one pull and running with open choke. So the two loose carb bolts was the problem. Amazing it ran at all with a dangling carb. The qov. linkage wasn't much of a problem but I had a bit of a problem with the throttle linkage. Found this pic in the OM that showed the how the U shaped part connected the throttle to the qov.

My impression is that they're nowhere near as common

The B&S single L head service manual has some diagrams. If you give me the engine Model and series I can look it up and scan the pages this evening
-
Excellent safety wire job. Note that if either bolt loosens, it tightens the wire.

I had the same issue of the carb bolts getting loose on the 5hp B&S on our wood splitter. This turned into more of a disaster, I tried taking off its muffler so I could have more access and both of them broke off. After I drilled out the broken off bolts and Helicoiled new threads, I used some Allen head bolts to remount the carb. I cut off an Allen wrench so it would reach the bolts. That allowed me to get those carb bolts very tight! Then I used a wire on the muffler bolts.
-
Found an operator manual that has carb info
-
The only B&S engines I have are the "Classic" 3-1/2 HP with the oldy-but-goodie PulseJet carb on top of the tank... and the plastic wind vane governor.
-
Best I can do on the bottom side. There is nu way to really see anything with out pulling the tank and carb Sorry

Often there is info in the B&S operator manual also if you can find one.

Flat head...Thanks Paul. I tried, but things are so tight I could not see the gov. linkage till I removed the fuel tank. I may have to pull the engine to reassemble the linkage from the bottom.
