The exact location of the compression release mechanism in a 17hp Briggs and Stratton engine can vary depending on the specific model and design of the engine. Typically, the compression release mechanism is located near the camshaft or valve train assembly of the engine. It may involve additional components such as springs, levers, or pins that interact with the exhaust valve to temporarily release compression during the starting process.
