Briggs 23 Fuel Shutoff Block Off?
I have disabled the fuel shutoff solenoid, but it is still installed. It sticks out the back of the carb like a sore thumb.
What are you all using as a block off? Bolt? Should I need sealant on the threads? Pics please. |

I use a bolt with a copper washer. Just like your oil drain plug would use.

Re: Briggs 23 Fuel Shutoff Block Off?
Any idea what thread it is? It's still in the cart, so I'd like to get one before I take it all apart.

Re: Briggs 23 Fuel Shutoff Block Off?
A smart boy would figure out what thread needle jet assembly will screw into it. This is a conversion I did for a 22 hp Predator. Removed the fuel solenoid - IT IS THE SAME THREAD AS THE JET KIT FOR A 390 - so I did a little machine work. It's in the pictures -- I got the fuel/air mixture screws out and replaced with standard 390 carburetor brass needles. There's more to it then this but when your finished you'll need no tools to adjust your carburetor - at the shop or out on the trail.

Re: Briggs 23 Fuel Shutoff Block Off?
It's no big deal really, I'll just take it off and match up a bolt. Just wondered if someone had a cool modification for this.

I used a needle on a 23hp vanguard I had and the 18hp with dual carb I have now. I’ll look for a part number for you when I get home.

This pic isn't my carb, but just like it. It's a newer 23hp Vanguard. |
