Hi there. I was looking at some you tube videos on the Briggs Intek motors, specifically the 15.5HP. This particular video gives them a bit of a hiding Just wondering if those here who have used them have seen these failures first hand?
I am looking at a 2005 15.5HP Intek with AVS, pressure lube and spin on filter. It has clocked up a big 500 hours with full service history. It runs beautifully with minimal noise.
Would one pull the head off to prevent the further issues of a failed head gasket or assume that if it has made 500 hours it should go another 100 or so ok in a ride on application?
