5 Horsepower Briggs Restoration Project and How to unseize pistons and valves
May be a while on the rest, just hang in there, I will eventually work on this again, its just going to take alot of money to get it bored out and sleeved, new valves, new piston/rings, new rod, everything! i found an old 5 horsepower briggs and stratton engine block with a thrown rod, seized piston and valves. In this video i unseize the piston and valves, and remove them. And begin the clean up process. Cylinder might have to bored. Also note, i said on the video that i may need a new piston because of the stuck rings, not necessarily true, because the rings should come off with no problem. Unless the piston is scored or worn, it shouldn't need replaced. Thanks for watching, and please subscribe!

Replacing valve stem seals in 305 H.O. small block chevy from 1986 Monte Carlo SS
I'm putting the original 305HO back in the Monte after taking the ZZ3 out for my Iroc project. This is mainly to make the car mobile but it may end up tagged with this engine for a while. Previous owner reported that this 305 has over 100k miles on it and has been out of the car since 1997. He said it smoked during startup and sure enough the valve stem seals were worn out. Hopefully this will fix the issue.

Briggs and Stratton Engine Rebuild Project
meant to say flywheel cover or shroud, i just called it flywheel, i always make little mistakes, lol. anyways i've had this engine for a long time, never had a carburetor for it, so it's been sitting in my garage for several years, until last summer i tore it down to take a look at the cylinder wall and rod bearing / crank journal to see what all it needed. I do not know what model it is, i only know that it starts with 13 in the model number, the flywheel cover is off a another engine. i think it's a 3.5 horse, it came off a mini bike. this will be made into a stroker with my other crankshaft, that i have in the video.

Compression Testing and What You Can Learn From It - EricTheCarGuy
Compression Testing and What You Can Learn From It - EricTheCarGuy Here is a video on performing a compression test on an engine to assess it's mechanical condition. An engines ability to compress air and fuel is directly proportional to it's performance since an engine is nothing more than an air compressor once you take away all the controls. A compression test is a good general test that will give you an idea of the engine's overall health but it does not give specific information on what the problem is should there be one, for that a "leak down test" would be required, here is a link to that video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgrfT0LFMhc However if you find yourself looking for the source of a performance problem with an engine, this is a great place to start. This test is often overlooked in favor of looking at the fuel or ignition system, I think that's a mistake, if an engine can't perform mechanically no amount of electronics will make that better.

Briggs and Stratton Power Built 12.5 HP Flathead Model 28 Rebuild, Teardown / Reassembly PART 2
PART 2.... In this video i'm doing a teardown and rebuild of a Briggs and Stratton Power Built 12.5 HP Flathead Model 28 Lawn Mower engine. Hope this series helps you, be sure to watch the other parts. And the last part is the first start of this motor after being rebuilt (not a complete break in video, just the first few minutes of running and adjusting carburetor) The only thing i left out was checking the ring gap clearance, which all you do is put a new ring in the cylinder use the piston to push it down about a half inch or so and use a feeler gauge to check the gap on the ring. Use general safety rules when doing anything like this, it is extremely to cut/smash fingers at any point. I cut my thumb really bad on the timing gear on the crankshaft (off camera). Just be careful and use common sense. Thanks for watching
