    Great video, most so called "rebuild videos" change the spark plug, clean the carburetor and call it a day. That's not rebuild, its rarely a tune up. One suggestion,... you take us through a 45 minute journey showing the job and at the end you give us two seconds (blink and you miss it) of a partial view of the finished product. Not smart, showcase it dude!, be proud of it!, pan out a bit so we can see the whole thing and slowly rotate the camera around it for a little bit, its the fitting end to a quality video.

    I note a couple of things since I have rebuilt some small engines as well. First, the coil has electronic module so points and condenser is inop, second the cap on the starter clutch should be removed to clean and lubricate, third this engine doesn't have a cast iron sleeve meaning the cylinder is coated in teflon for wear protection, once you hone those walls that teflon is gone which greatly reduces the life of the engine, the piston was scared and were the rings replaced.

    This engine is a 1982 (date code). The coil was converted to electronic ington. Not putting new rings in was a waste of time. Those air filter needs to be cleaned with hot soapy water then dry. Next put about a teaspoon of on one the filter, work it in.use a dry towel to get excessive out.

Which is sad that towards the late 70s around 78 every quality built product started to go downhill in quality and emissions

    Did you oil the foam air filter before test running it? I've been working on B&S engines since I was old enough to read a service manual and hold wrench. Except for a select few newer engines and foam pre cleaners, the foam filters must be oiled with engine oil prior to use, excess wrung out of course. I'm sure you know this already so this may help guide someone else. Thanks for the very informative videos. I recently discovered your channel and have been enjoying watching them.

    Marc Huerta These engines mowing grass, etc. need to run at a constant speed about 3500 rpm. When hitting deep grass, the governor adds throttle when the engines slows to maintain the rpm. The governor reduces throttle when not under load to prevent over reving. The governor uses centrifugal weights to maintain the throttle.
