Is there a gap setting for a coil on a Honda 3011?

Hello Calvin,

.010" to .012" at the flywheel magnet or any business card inserted between will work fine....

Briggs 12 HP Oil in carb

Engine runs great a couple of minutes, but chokes down as oil shoots into carb. I changed the diaphragm (Valve cover) that connects to carb with a rubber tube. It ran great for a couple of minutes and then the oil blew back into carb. What could cause this?Read More

Snapper w/Briggs won't start/run

Echomike on Mar 19, 2011

Returning Snapper SR-140 rear-engine electric start rider, Mdl:3312513BE, with 12.5hp B&S to service. Unit has been idle and outdoors for 4 yrs. Replaced fuel lines/filter,etc. Cleaned gas tank. Removed Walbro LMT-5 carburetor and cleaned on site. Unit started and ran, but very roughly above idle. No muffler at all at that time. Had carburetor professionally cleaned/rebuilt. Installed new muffler & installed rebuilt carburetor. Changed oil. Now unit will not start at all. Spits/sputters, but will not run. Removed spark plug, previously cleaned, and it appeared to be fouled/wet. Recleaned & installed. First few seconds of start attempt sounded like they were going to be successful but didn't quite make it and unit returned quickly to no start/run condition. Because of plug's previous wet condition, I suspect that I'm getting too rich of a fuel/air mixture to support combustion. Unfortunately, I've not been able to find any information on what initial carburetor adjustments should be. I have two adjusting screws, one obviously an idle speed adjust. The other I assume is a rich/lean adjust. So, I need some tech assist on what may be wrong and corrective measures. One theoretical question. The thing actually ran w/o a muffler, right? Could the installation of a muffler, and the attendant backpressure, actually have screwed things up to the point that it now won't even start? Thanks for any help.Read More
