Briggs & Stratton Dating
Hello All
I am sure one of you said that B & S engines can be dated, if so what year would you put on this one
Model 94502
Type 5911 02
Code 85111901
(the 1 before the 9 could vaguely be a 7, but fairly confident it is a 1)
Thanks

Thanks, Interesting, thought
Thanks, Interesting, thought it must be a replacement as its on my Hayter which I have just started cleaning up, its an early one from 1958/59
Useful but not totally
Useful but not totally reliable if someone has, at some time, replaced the engine cowling* complete with numbers from another engine or a major failure has been repaired by fitting a short block. In that case the short block used to come with a metallic sticker to place near the numbers on the original cowling to warn future repairers that all may not be as it seemed.
* Blower housing in Briggs speak!
