Want this question answered?
Briggs has a rudimentary wiring diagram for the operation of an electric start engine. see the link below.
I have a 14.5 Briggs and Stratton engine on a Ranch King riding mower that will not start. After spraying starter fluid into the head, and air cleaner it fires for a second, but will not run. It is getting gas.....coil??? or something else?
Because its a pos I have a brand new one that won't start.
4.5 mower will start and run for two seconds
Car brands that start with a b -Buick -Briggs & Stratton -BMW -Bugatti -Bristol -Bricklin -Bertone -Bentley
I would start with float sticking or maybe fuel filter plugged filter and run some good carb cleaner threw a tank of fuel if that does not fix your problem you may have to take the carb apart and clean it.
It is the whole assembly containing the pull start (if applicable) or the metal or plastic shroud surrounding the flywheel (it spins when you start the engine ).
Try 32 thousands, to start, depends on how much compression the engine has at this point.
bad gas, dirty carb needs new sparkplug. youtube has repair vids on how to do what. user (davidsfarm) has great tips
Might be in your ignition : lose wire, bad switch : when it won't start check for spark .
check your coil out
dirty fuel filter or water in the bowl of the carb
