Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): 5hp briggs 2nd question, condensors, hi john


Question
Hi John, 130202 0135 5hp B&S. Thanks for your recent help!
Got the flywheel off and exposed internal ignition parts. Yea WD40!. Can I diagnose the condition of the condenser or just replace? Parts websites show electronic ignition retrofits. Is this possible w/this model? Seems cheaper than a complete ignition rebuild.

Answer
Hello Don:

>>A Retrofit Electronic Ign can be Used on this Engine.
>>The Point Set has to be Replaced as a Complete Unit.
>>There is No Diagnostic for these Condensors.
>>Please, Do Not Hesitate, If you Hit a Snag, if I Missed Something or this Does Not Correct the Problem, I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck

Respectfully

John
