Hi bellarinelawns,

Honestly the new sloper style Briggs engines for $269 are pretty good value for money.

Alternatively you can buy a Chonda for around the mid one hundred figure like this one,

or this one is even cheaper,

Most of these are very reliable power plants if you do the general maintenance like change oil regularly etc.
