Timing on all Briggs & Stratton small engines is set at the factory and non-adjustable. It is determined by the placement of the armature (coil) and position of flywheel on crankshaft. Unless the crankshaft is bent or the flywheel key is sheared (both are possible after an impact or sudden stoppage), timing is perfect. Rough running is likely an intake or mechanical problem.

The oil level for a 10 horsepower Briggs and Stratton engine should be checked using the dipstick, which is typically located on the side of the engine. It is important to keep the oil level between the "Full" and "Add" marks on the dipstick. Generally, these engines require about 20 to 24 ounces of oil, but it's always best to consult the owner's manual for specific recommendations regarding oil type and capacity.

What Should the gap be set on the spark plug for the Briggs and stratton 12.5 HP Lawn Mower...10 years old?

Most Briggs and Stratton (B&S) engines of that size can have the spark plug gapped to 0.030" What I truly recommend is that you visit the Briggs and Stratton web site and download the engine owner's manual. You will need the Model Number, Type Number and maybe the Date Code. This information will be used to obtain the appropriate Owner's Manual. You can also obtain the IPL (Illustrated Parts List) for your particular engine. The web site is www.briggsandstratton.com - and you can take a look around for the manuals.
