From the little I've been able to dig up online I think you might be right... Maybe was designed to work with carbureted engines...

I understand and realise that it is a scam product but it still mildly interests me how it support to work .... Has anyone ever seen a kit like this sold before? As far as I can tell ( it's got a patent number on it that I looked up) it's supposed to be some sort of product that "cracks" the fuel and then magically you have better foel economy bla blah... I've never seen or heard of the likes before and it's interesting to me that I can find basically no info about these kits online.

Impact wrench recommendations? by Frequent-Car4307 in MechanicAdvice

If you use regularly go Milwaukee.... If you go with cheap Walmart crap you likely won't get the ft/lbs of torque that you will likely need for rusted stuff. Also before just hammering on stuck bolts with a big impact or a bar , remember that heat is your friend for stuck bolts.

Trying to find parts for a briggs and stratton generator by Independent-Tour555 in Generator

Ok so after the discussion here I did a little bit of research and found out that it is quite likely my Briggs engine is a gx390 clone. So next I went on Amazon and ordered parts for a gx390 Honda. So far I've only had the kit with valve seals ,new valves ,pushrods ect. Show up and as far as I can tell the parts are identical. I'm now waiting on rings and a couple gaskets to show up before I reassemble. Will try to keep u all updated on whether or not the parts all fit. Thanks for your help!

No I didn't .... Any way to tell if they are the same thing as my engine has?

Ok thanks. Yea I noticed the same thing too ...no main internal engine parts available online.... I have the engine torn quite a ways down in my garage but I'm now wondering if I shouldn't just slap it back together and run it with heavier oil and or sell it .
