bds1984 1,466 #2 Posted June 1, 2023 Are you asking about a 10 HP model specifically or in general? I purchased a dozen new 3.5-ish HP engines for a small engine repair class I taught in 2013-14 and they were all a year or two old then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wild Bill 633 866 #4 Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) The old B&S cast iron engines were not available as a complete engine around 2000. Parts were still available after that and the production of the 10HP & 16HP engines was moved to China. Some Chinese parts are still available and NOS US made parts have become very hard to find.
