What if your 5hp Briggs and stratton motor on your chipper runs the gas straight thru when you open the valve on the tank Flooding the carburetor and stalling the engine Is this a needle valve stickin?

It very well could be, or a problem with the float. Remove the bowl off the carburetor, remove float, needle valve, and seat. Clean all parts good with carburetor cleaner. Float the float in some fuel to make sure it floats (when should not that any fuel inside of it). Put needle valve, seat, and float back on and open fuel valve a small amount, lift float up to see if it will shut fuel off, if it does reinstall bowl. If not you may have to replace the needle and seat.

Briggs and stratton engine over idles runs so fast that oil spits out can only be shut off by pulling spark plug wire?

The governor is stuck, causing the engine to over-speed and not return to regular idle speed. You can check the travel of the governor by moving it back and forth with your finger - there is not much travel, but there should be some. Check for debris or accumulated gunk at the lever where it joins the engine and clean it well. Ensure that the engine oil is clean and at normal level. A stuck governor will make the engine over-speed so fast that it can cause the piston rod to break. Good luck.

How do you tell what it is a scooter or small bike?

If the engine is 49 cc or smaller, then it is a scooter. If the engine is larger, for example 60 cc, then it is a small motorcycle. Anything above 50 cc is no longer a scooter. This is a legal definition that has to do with which category a motor vehicle on two wheels belongs to. In most people's minds, however, a motorcycle with a 100 cc engine is considered a small bike. This is because motorcycle producers have steadily been producing bigger engines over the years. In 1966, the Honda CB 450 was considered a motorcycle with a large engine. Now, a 450 cc is just medium sized.

What is better a ski-doo snowmobile or a polaris snowmobile and why?

Ski-doos are usually more performance sleds, they are usually the first to try out new designs and that is why their snowmobiles look so weird compared to the standard design that pretty much all polaris snowmobiles look like. That being said, polaris are usually more reliable, and are much easier to find parts for. The standard polaris design that has been in place since like 1996 works fairly well and is good for a nice trail snowmobile. I myself prefer polaris over ski-doo because of the reliability issue. The newer ones may be better, i cannot say because I have never ridden one newer than 2000.
