1. Remove cover from top of the motor (depending on the motor the recoil is attached to it) should have three bolts. When the cover is off you will see a fly wheel with a recoil clutch (or just a nut if the recoil is not on top). Take a pry bar or large screw driver jam the fly wheel with it (make sure you do not damage it). Use a pipe wrench or gently tap the recoil clutch loose with a hammer. Then take two pry bars and pry on the bottom edge of the fly wheel ( be carefull where you pry find two solid spots on the case)the fly wheel should pop off if not keep the pry bars prying and get a piece of wood and tap the end of the nut shaft this should knock it loose. Now you should be able to see the points and condenser. Take the screw off the pivot point on the points and take the bracket off the condenser. Once you put the points and condenser back in put the points at the open position - make sure the condenser is not tightened - put a piece of cardboard (about the thickness of a cigarette pack) between the points and gently push the condenser until it just touches the cardboard and tighten the condenser bolt. Then put it all back together again.

Who does Briggs and stratton contract to build their snapper mowers?
Briggs and Stratton does contract anyone to build mowers. The mower manufacturers contract Briggs and Stratton to build their engines (or whatever engine is on the unit). That is why you can have a Briggs and Stratton on most any type of mower. Same is true for Kohler, Tecumseh, etc. Not to say that the engine manufacturers do not build their own type of outdoor power tool but as the question states "snapper mower". Also keep in mind that if you have a snapper mower with a Briggs and Stratton engine and you need warranty work on the engine you need to go to an Authorized Briggs repair facility where as if you have a mower warranty then you need to go to an authorized repair facility for the mower manufacturer.
