Very Good Book On Briggs and Stratton Small Engine Repair & Maintainance

Good colorful pictures to start off with. Good step by step pictures. This books explains the maintainance and repair of Briggs and Stratton small engines. Good book to use with the Briggs and Stratton factory L-head service manual. The carburetor section explains only one of several Walbro carbs - the factory manual has a much better illustrated parts teardown picture. If you own a Briggs and Stratton small engine such as a lawnmower, pressure washer, go-cart, etc. and enjoy do-it-yourself maintainance and repair projects this is a good book to buy.

Great for maintaining & servicing small B & S engines

This is a great reference for care and servicing of small B & S lawn mower engines. Contains countless photos with illustrations and some tables, but mostly a lot of color photos. Contains chapters entitled "Maintenance", "Basic Repair", and "Advanced Repair". "Maintenance" includes servicing spark plugs and air cleaners. "Basic Repair" includes troubleshooting, adjusting the carburetor, and replacing the rewind. "Advanced Repair" includes overhauling the carburetor, replacing the ignition, removing cylinder head carbon deposits, servicing the valves, and servicing the engine brake. The book does not cover overhauling the engine, but is a great reference for lawn mower owners who want to do their own maintenance.
