Hi Yes this is running and is completely restored.
Briggs & Stratton engine dates to 1943. I have the plough attached and a set of discs and spare engine (non-runner) also.

Hi

Thanks for the reply, I understand there are three different areas that need to be filled with gearbox oil, in some areas the drain screws are on top so do you need to suck the oil out with a pipe and fill it up until the oil comes out of the oil level screw? Do you know how much oil I would need, would I get away with a 1l bottle?

Many Thanks for the help

Jack

It was a bit long!

Thanks Charlie. Found a spring that works as had bought a clutch lever spring 512 which I got to fit ok. Clutch engages fine and stays engaged, which it didnt without the spring. It still appears to need reverse pull on handles to disengage. Does this mean it is out of adjustment?
Also, does slip clutch wear over time and is there any adjustment on that?
Thanks again.

The only thing I find on the magneto is a kind of motionless button, screwed on another screw. There is a spring between both, but I don’t understand its role since nothing moves…
