Hi MF, From memory I have a few of those small utility mowers here with the vertical pull Briggs on them, not sure what I was going to do with them haven't even look at at them to see if they run, but most likely they will.Recently I have had a couple of people ask me to build them a lightweight Victa utility 2 stroke for cutting grass on steep slopes as I had a couple of frames here. Not that the Briggs could be used in this situation but it proves that just because some of these mowers are old they still have a use
