Small Engine ReassemblyBriggs & Stratton OHV
A Visual Guide
Objectives:
Reassemble an engine following concise steps and detailed notes taken by the student.
Utilize proper tool techniques. Reinforce lecture-based theoretical discussions. Utilize and reference engine standards with
appropriate engine manuals.
Procedure Notes:
Follow the reassembly steps precisely. Be sure to reference notes and sketches you created
during engine disassembly.
Your engine may not be exactly like the engine in this presentation. Even if your Briggs & Stratton OHV engine is not exactly like the model used in this presentation, many of the procedures will be the same.
Use reassembly grease on all internal parts and follow all specifications!
Pre-Assembly Cleaning
Clean all internal parts in the parts cleaning cabinets. Remove excess solvent with compressed air. Eye protection and chemical
resistant gloves are required.
Step 1: Install the Crankshaft
Reminder: Tapered end to the front of the engine.
Pre-operation grease
Step 2: Reassemble the Piston Rings and Connecting Rod
Reminder: The rings must be replaced correctly. Review your sketch of connecting rod and piston ring
orientation.
Step 2: Reassemble the Piston Rings and Connecting Rod
Connecting rod & piston orientation. Arrow on piston and MAG abbreviation to the
magneto side of the engine.
wrist pin clips
Step 3: Install the Piston and Connecting Rod in the Cylinder
Reminder: Clean and coat cylinder wall with lubricant. Use piston ring compressor. Install in the correct orientation.
Step 3: Install the Piston and Connecting Rod in the Cylinder
Use your thumbs or the handle of a mallet to
gently insert the piston assembly.
Rotate the crankshaft to prevent it from striking the connecting
rod during reassembly.
Step 4: Replace Connecting Rod Cap
Reminder: Lubricate interior of rod cap and connecting rod. Replace cap and rod in the correct direction. Replace oil splash and rod cap lock. Torque
screws properly.

Step 5: Replace Tappets
Note: Lubricate each tappet
Step 6: Replace Cam Gear
Reminder: Make sure journal is secure. Line up timing marks. Lubricate all bearing surfaces.
Step 7: Install Crankcase Cover
Reminder: Use correct gasket. Tighten bolts in correct sequence by skipping across the cover. Replace oil seal if needed. Adjust end
play if needed.
Step 8: Install Flywheel
Install flywheel and key.
Install Starter Cup and Nut
Torque flywheel nut using a strap wrench
and ft.lb. torque wrench.
Installing Cylinder Head & Adjusting Overhead Valves
Return to your measurement sheets in Chapter 9 to record your measurements.
Step 9: Insert Valves Into Head
Insert valves from the bottom of the head, while using your
thumbs to lock the valve retainer. Oil seal on intake valve
Exhaust valve guide rises
Step 10: Install the Cylinder Head
Reminder: Install head gasket first. Torque head bolts in a crisscross pattern.
Step 11: Install Pushrods & Valve Wear Plates

Valve Wear Plates
Step 12: Align Rocker Arms with Push Rods & Valve Wear Plates
Reminder: Use the rocker arm as a fulcrum to slightly compress each valve spring in order to slide its opposite end on top of the push rod.
Step 13: Prepare the Cylinder for Valve Adjustment
Reminder: Rotate piston to TDC compression. Use a screwdriver in the sparkplug opening as a guide or align the PTO keyway to the
cylinder. Now rotate the flywheel clockwise until the magnet points straight up. This disengages the compression release on the
camshaft.
Step 14: Check Valve Clearance
Reminder: According to specification, insert a flat feeler gauge between the rocker arm and valve wear
plate. Make adjustments if out of gap tolerance.
Step 15: Adjusting Valve Clearance
1. Insert feeler gauge2. Loosen locking screw, while holding adjustment nut.3. Adjust clearance with the adjustment nut.
4. Hold adjustment nut and lock rocker arm.
Note: Don’t forget gasket. Short bolt to the top.
Step 16: Replace Valve Cover
Step 17: Install Armature
Note: Thread kill wire through port in block. Bolt armature to block. Adjust
armature air gap with shim or business card.
Step 18: Insert Heat Shield
Note: One screw only
Reminder: Refer to your drawings to ensure all linkage is correctly assembled.

4 Bolts
Step 19: Replace Linkage Plate
Insert Kill Wire
Step 20: Replace Carburetor
1. Attach spring & linkage to carburetor
2. Insert both gaskets & spacer.
Step 21: Reset Governor (IMPORTANT)(IMPORTANT)
Reminder: Ensure that all linkage travels freely.
Confirm that throttle butterfly is open completelySet throttle to full
Step 21: Reset Governor (IMPORTANT)(IMPORTANT)
Procedure: Use a 1/4” nut driver and 3/8”. Rotate governor shaft counter clockwise until it stops (do not force). Tighten governor arm lock with 3/8” wrench.
Step 22: Insert Spark Plug
Step 23: Replace Blower Housing
Note: Linkage plate flange mounts with the blower housing top. Weave the blower housing over, under, and over.
Step 24: Replace Muffler
Note: Include gasket. #30 star tool required. Replace muffler guard. One bolt at rear of muffler and four screws at front.
Step 25: Replace Fuel Tank
Note: Replace fuel line. Four bolts front and back.
Step 26: Replace Throttle & Fuel Valve Cover Plate
Note: Fuel valve must be in off position. Throttle must be at half.
Step 27: Replace Air Cleaner
Mounting Plate& Gasket Filter & Cover
Steps 28-29: Fill Crankcase with clean oil. Fill fuel tank 1/3 full with gasoline.
Be sure to add gasoline, not any other fuels.
Step 30: Start and Run Engine
Turn run switch “ON” and set throttle to 1/2. No starting fluid should be needed.
Reminder: Only while instructor is present. Use engine stand and vice.
Step 31: Adjust Carburetor & Take Measurements
Temperature Readings
Full Throttle RPM & Carburetor Adjustment
Let engine operate for approx. 5 min.Let engine operate for approx. 5 min.
Step 32: Remove Fuel & Lubricant
Place fuel and lubricant into their appropriate containers.
Reassembly Wrap-Up
Place a piece of tape on your engine that has your name as well as a report of how the engine ran. Return engine to storage area.
Inventory and clean all tools in your assigned box. Clean and return your engine storage bin to its
storage area. Clean and straighten your area.
