This is a cylinder head gasket used on Briggs & Stratton small gasoline engines to replace the original gasket that sits between the cylinder, where the engine's combustion takes place, and the head, the top of the engine manifold. Typically the head gasket lasts for many years. With continued use, particularly if the mower or other small engine is used commercially, the user may notice leaking oil or heavy, white smoke coming from the mower when it runs. This is often a sign that the head gasket has been compromised and needs to be replaced. This gasket fits most Briggs & Stratton engines and is a genuine OEM replacement part guaranteed to be identical to the worn gasket that is being replaced. In order to replace the gasket, begin by removing the head bolts and the smaller screws that secure the pull cover; remove the head; scrape the remaining parts of the old gasket from the top of the cylinder head; sand down both the head and the cylinder surfaces and finish with paint thinner; make certain the new gasket seats precisely where the original was, then reverse the disassembly process. Make certain not to over tighten the screw when reassembling the mower. This gasket will fit most models of Briggs & Stratton small engines on machines such as lawn mowers, tillers, pressure washers, and edgers.
Usually ships within 4 - 14 days

This replacement crankcase gasket is a genuine OEM part designed for a range of different small gas-powered lawn appliance engines. It is commonly found in tillers and lawn mowers. The crankcase is a housing for the crankshaft, which receives reciprocal motion from the pistons and transforms it into rotation motion. This gasket helps seal the crankcase to create an airtight chamber and prevent oil from leaking so that the crankshaft can operate smoothly. As the engine runs, it produces a lot of heat and gases that eventually wear on gaskets. Over time, all of this stress can cause a gasket to degrade and break its seal. If this happens, oil will leak from the crankcase, the engine will easily overheat, and greyish white smoke will visibly blow out from the exhaust pipe. Replacing a crankcase gasket will require disassembling much of the engine, as it is an internal part, so we recommend following the owner's manual or consulting the manufacturer's website for instructions. This part is a high-quality replacement gasket manufactured to exactly match the specifications of the original part. It is compatible with Toro and Briggs & Stratton engines and ships individually.
This screw, manufactured by Briggs & Stratton, has multiple uses in small and medium sized gasoline powered engines, including generators, leaf blowers, lawn mowers, log splitters, chippers, tillers, pressure washers, and vacuums. Bolts of this design are used to secure engines and accessories to the body of the power tool. Manufactured with a smooth nozzle, these bolts are capable of withstanding four times the resistance of a regular hex bolt. For this reason, they are often used to secure the housing of moving parts, such as the cylinder head. Periodically, the wear and tear experienced by any engine will result in interior pieces needing to be replaced. In such cases it always a good idea to also replace the hardware that secures the various parts of the device together. Flange bolts and nuts should be replaced with genuine OEM parts such as this one, which is manufactured to meet the same specifications as the original. Occasionally, the high heat of the engine, coupled with extensive use, can cause a hex bolt such as this to freeze up.

This replacement friction spring is a genuine OEM part meant for any number of small appliance engines run using a starter rope. This spring absorbs large amounts of kinetic energy that could damage the starter rope pulley system. It helps keep the pulley from being overstretched, which would create enough pressure to break the entire system. This spring sits at the center of the pulley system and creates resistance as the user yanks the starter rope. Friction springs can become worn out after repeated use, especially if a user tends to yank the starter rope quite forcefully. The most obvious sign of a worn of friction spring is if the pulley system lacks any resistance. As the user pulls the cord, they should feel a little pull back, but if the friction spring is worn, there will be much less resistance. Replacing this part is straightforward and will only require a screwdriver. Simply open the pulley system, carefully remove the old spring, and install the new one. This part is compatible with a wide number of appliances from Toro, Vanguard, Briggs & Stratton, and Lawnboy. It comes sourced from the original manufacturer and ships individually.

This spring brake is a genuine Midwest Engine part that can be used as a replacement part for outdoor appliances with small engines, including lawn mowers, chipper shredders, snowblowers, and other such appliances. Spring brakes are a braking system employed a large, coiled spring that is kept under high tension; the control valves attached to the spring brake are the mechanism by which the spring brake is released.If the spring brake has been damaged, is malfunctioning, or is in a state of disrepair, this will manifest in the form of a sudden, volatile eruption from the air brake chamber. This is a dangerous state for a small engine, so repair should be conducted immediately. Additionally, a new spring brake part should be ordered before any attempt to use the appliance without a proper repair. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment, and stay safe around the small engine of the appliance if the spring brake has malfunctioned and caused a dangerous situation.This spring brake is compatible with the brands Briggs and Stratton, Cub Cadet, and Toro.
Firing up the lawn mower should be a simple act: hold down the safety bar, grip the hand pull, and yank the rope. What if nothing happens? The pulley works by tightening the spring, then letting it loose, creating compressed air and fuel at the same time the magneto fires the spark plug. It is rare to have an issue with the pulley spring assembly that starts the chain reaction and results in the engine coming to life, but it is possible for the part to fail. If there is a problem with the starter mechanism then it is typically the rope pull wearing out. Users will know when the pulley assembly isn't working either because there is no resistance when the rope is pulled or pulling the rope results in no compression (the engine doesn't sound as if it's turning). When it is determined that the pulley spring needs to be replaced, the user should examine the pull rope and handle to make sure those items do not need to be replaced as well. The most important consideration in replacing this part is to make sure the replacement is an OEM genuine replacement part, which will exactly match this pulley. The pulley is compatible with Cub Cadet and Briggs & Stratton engines.
