Briggs and Stratton Air Compressor Engine Repair
I got another Briggs and Stratton engine at the Stanton Trade days that I was able to use the fuel system from to fix the air compressor. Also, the air compressor engine had seized somehow but I took the head off and was able to get it going by lubricating the piston and valves with PB blaster penetrating oil.

How to fix spark plug stripped threads on Briggs & Stratton mower engine?
I removed the old plug at end of year and noticed the threads in the engine’s plug socket were worn badly and pieces of the thread were on the spark plug. Now the new plug does not turn tightly. Can this be repaired? The mower is 3 years old and otherwise in good shape.
Sparkplugs are available in the next larger thread size for Briggs engines. Call your local lawnmower shop. If you take’em the head, he’ll tap it in about 10 minutes. Good Luck. =^ ) In the future,start the plug by hand.
How to start a 14 HP OHV Briggs & Stratton lawn mower engine?
Engine will turn over once and then stop. By bumping starter it will turn over again once and stop. Acts like too much compression. Have had this problem in the past and taken to the shop and had repaired several times. Am tired of the expense of repairs. Mower is old (2001)but runs good. Have asked the repair shop what causes this and was told carburation and valve timing. If so how do I adjust valve timing?
the overhead valve engine requires a valve adjustment occassionally, this is done by removing the valve cover, turning the engine to top dead center on the compression stroke and going past top dead center 1/4″. then with a feeler guage you set the valve clearance to .004, you can purchase a repair manual from your nearest Briggs & Stratton dealer that instructs you step by step on how to do this, the manual is less than $20.00 and is a great investment for a doitselfer.
