nice, thanks for taking us through all this!

[@MowerMike]

You are welcome, was fun to lay it all out.

The single cylinder briggs intek has lousy alloy head bolts, they stretch from the heat, causing blown head gaskets. I changed mine to grade 8 bolts, no more blown head gaskets. Good luck on your build.....Al Scott

1:51 connecting rod?

[@carolscott6644]

P.S. I put concentrated antifreeze in a crock pot and heat it to clean pistons and parts for up to 24 hours, it works great and isn't corrosive....Al Scott

[@MowerMike]

Damn now that is a good idea. Just don’t breath the fumes or make a pot roast after lol

[@DumbCarGuy]

Just curious. Do you think you could have done this while its still in the mower?

[@MowerMike]

Hmmm nope because you have to take the oil pan off to get to the rod bolts.
