What else do I need with this purchase? What engine does this have Briggs? Should I add a additive to the gas?

The engine is a 208cc LCT and yes you should add an additive to the gas when in storage for a long time.

It's not Briggs, it's a chinese knock off, but for the price not a bad snowblower, I used it last winter and am happy with it. I always use additive in all my small engines.

yes it is a Briggs and Stratton engine. Just set the clearance when installing the unit. Worked on the first pull. still working fine.

Mine is five years old, and I have used it heavily. The unit itself is holding up fine but I am having some problems with the engine now. The engine is a Briggs and Stratton similar to what you might find on any number of similar products. About the only plastic part on it is the guard over the belt, which is pretty beat up now. All of the structural and functional parts underneath are steel.

Engine. Funnel, and gas mixer. Don't use 10w 40 like they say works better with 2 cycle synthetic.

Mine was for the 5500. I can say this, these new fuels play hell with these carbs, additives don't seem to help. They need to be exercised monthly, or drained and the the fuel lines blown clear between use. Additives will help with the fuel stabilization in the tank but have not helped with the carburetor bowls. The fuel pick-up is located and the very base of the bowl and there is a very small dia. hole where the altitude adj. feeds the metering rod. This has played havoc on my generator. Good Luck.

I called Briggs and Stratton (phone number online) and gave them the model number of my old engine and they told me this was the direct replacement for it. That is what I recommend doing. I honestly couldn't tell you about your situation. Sorry.

I just googled what engine to purchase and found it that way. I hope this helps :)

First of all, is this a brand new unit? What octane and are you using? Did you use a 50-1 husqvarna oil mix? Is this fresh gas or a year old? Did you prime it before trying to start it? Was the plug wet when you took it out? Did it ever try to start?

If you didn't run it out of fuel before storing it the fuel could have gummed up in the carborator. Best to find a Briggs and Stratton service center near you

No points needed. This is fully electronic. Older Briggs may need the magnet polarity modified on the flywheel to work properly, though. Free service, just pay shipping to Briggs.

Depends what your needs are. I just wanted to check codes and get info/status of engine. If you are doing more extensive repairs, perhaps you should check with your local repair shop and ask their advice. Be well.

Dont buy it. Im not mechanic but the guy that put it in for me said that this product didnt come with some valve for the oxygen to mix with the gas and all it did was flood the engine with gas alone and it messed up the engine even more. Just go buy it at the parts store. They cost the same and youll know for sure its the right part

You need to know what engine you have. Either Briggs and Stratton, or Kohler

If your research led you to this part number as a replacement on your engine then I would recommend this purchase because it is a genuine Briggs carburetor and will work straight out of the box. If you are not certain then keep searching because there is plenty of info on all Briggs and most Troy-Bilt tillers. I purchased this carburetor for a lawn mower and it was perfect. I also have a Troy-Bilt Versatiller ( 5 hp Tecumseh engine) and have had to search a number of parts of it. Wherever you search, you will get better results by including every number and bit of detailed information with your questions. Good luck.

As long as it is a 7/8" shaft and a Briggs engine. I had to modify the bolts slightly on mine but I was able to get it to work just fine, one of the bolts does not go all the way through the engine and had to be cut down. Once I did that it was fine and gas been working good for about a year now.
