briggs doesn't offer compression ratings for their engines. I will usually pull it 3 to 5 times and look for 90 to 120. anything less is a problem and if it doesn't hold compression there is a problem
Briggs doesn't publish engine compression specs, but 120 is good. 100 is okay. 80 is lousy.
any where from 120 lbs to 180 lbs
Any thing above 130 lbs
I just got 110 - with new rings but still doesn't run right. ...
Leak down test : Uses 70lbs pressure to test for leaks around valves and cylinders.
90 to 120 minimum in 3 to 5 revolutions of the motor
that is not a good model number for briggs. also you need the type.
Run the car good
For a Briggs and Stratton 22 hp engine, good compression generally ranges between 90 to 120 psi. Values below this range may indicate wear or damage, while readings significantly above this range could suggest issues such as carbon buildup or valve problems. It's important to check both cylinders for consistency, as significant discrepancies may point to underlying issues. Regular maintenance can help maintain optimal compression levels.
personally Briggs & Stratton, Mountfield,
If you know your part number of even model number, you can go to eReplacementParts.com for the Briggs and Stratton parts your looking for. The site features part lists for each engine or motor and includes thousands of detailed diagrams to help you replace the flywheel once you get it. All in all, they are a very good site for finding tool parts in general but for Briggs and Stratton parts, eReplacementParts is the place to go.
Hi, The manual calls for 0.010 - 0.014" and a business card makes a good item to use to set it.
