Hi newlifemowers,
I enjoyed it immensely mate, and many thanks for posting...This is something that will give a few of our members pause for thought...A Briggs with a wooden head...I thought that would be reserved for Tecumseh with its "Indian" logo....Maybe this engine should be called "Kawliga"...(who had a wooden head!) lol
cheers

Please do not PM me asking for support. Please post your questions in the appropriate forums, as the replies it may receive may help all members, not just the individual member.
Kindest Regards, Darryl grin

Well, that's a laugh!

I have heard of wooden pistons [redgum apparently works OK] being made and used in small engines, and even motorbikes, during WW2 when parts were unavailable. But never a wooden head.

Cheers,
Gadge
