I have this old lawn mower and I am looking to use the engine for a go kart. It is the "Snapper big six" 6HP engine for a walk-behind mower by briggs and stratton. I am looking for a site where I can go to get the basics down about this mower and hopefully read a diagram about all the parts not only of the engine but of the parts of the mower too. Can anyone find a page where I can learn this? Any other tips about making go-karts!? Thank you!

You can get all the information on the engine at outdoordistributors.com. Type in the model number and you will get an exploded view with part numbers.

garrets lawn mower needs professional help.

the NGK spark plug for the Briggs&Stratton will be similar to Rj19lm will this cause any harm?

take the spark plug to your nearest dealer and find out what spark plug options you have, but I think I have seen those in Briggs and Hondas alike. If there is a NGK replacement available, you certainly can use it without causing any harm.

I have a briggs and stratton lawn mower. I've owned for about a year. It has never started easily, and now will not start at all. I am guessing that the carburetor needs to be cleaned. Can anyone provide instructions specifically for briggs and stratton lawn mowers (not sure of the model, bought it last year for about $140) regarding how to remove and clean the carburetor, and what the other causes may be?

Check and see if gas is in the carburetor bowl. If not the check valve is stuck a common problem with gunk build up. When you have it upside down it's under the float. Take the float off and get to it. The check valve is held with small wire parts so take your time and remember how it is held in place. You do have to put it back the same way you found it.

Before I did anything I would check for spark. Then I would pull the plug out and put two teaspoons of gas in the engine. Put the plug back and it will start and run most of the time. Only do that on a cold engine for your safety.

My lawn mower, "Weed Eater 21 B&S 550 series will not work. When i pull the starting cord, it begins to start, but dies as if the gas is not getting through or something. Yes, the lawn mower i have is a gas engine one.

how old is the gas? it could be bad. try draining the tank and putting in some fresh gas.On top of engine there should be big flat head screw. take that out and remove air filter and voila' there is your carb
