Briggs & Stratton Motors
Ok, I got really tired with screwing with my FE290 motor and worring about it exploding. I just decided to go ahead and get a Briggs motor. This guy is selling a 6.5HP OHV Briggs & Stratton motor, he said he hit around 30MPH.
Its off a Go Cart. Would this work? Here are some pictures? < JUNK, NM FOUND ME A HP V-TWIN I'm looking for a Briggs motor now, I was stupid that I didn't get one that was listed for $ 200.00, same ones you get from Carts Parts PLus. ANy Ideas? |

Re: Briggs & Stratton Motors
the mph depends on how you gear your cart but 6.5 is small

Re: Briggs & Stratton Motors
Which one is better out of these two? I was thinking to get a Briggs & Stratton V-Twin 18HP Vanguard, but my local Briggs reseller told me that the Honda GX670 V-Twin is better in power and quality.

Re: Briggs & Stratton Motors

$ 150.00, heres the problem: "This is a used 16hp briggs engine that needs to be rebuilt. It turns over but has low compression and smokes badly." From Buyer: So, NoNo what could be done here or anyone. Thanks |

Re: Briggs & Stratton Motors
Where can I get performance parts for the Briggs & Stratton 16HP V-Twin Motor? I know CartPartsPlus only does performance parts for the 18HP. Where
can I get the parts... |

Re: Briggs & Stratton Motors
I just bought it today like 2 hours ago, and yea its nice. I just need to clean it, take it apart to see whats the problem, and buy some parts for it. Along with some performance parts. The owner actaully had a 2000 Club Car DS with the same motor, and it sounded sick. It was fast too, he said the average he hit on the CC was 29MPH just stock. I wish I could have taken pictures of it, but oh well.
