bowtiebutler956 166 #1 Posted June 28, 2015 This is something I've been wanting to do for awhile, and I finally did it yesterday. I pulled out all my old Briggs Model N's, as well as a Model U, Model I, and a 6s, and ran ran them all at the same time (22 engines). It was fun, although it was a bit more work than I thought it was going to be. When this many engines are running, its difficult to hear the exhaust note of each engine so that I could get the fuel mixture set correctly on the carburetor. In this video, the newest engine is a 1952, and the oldest is a 1940. There was one engine (my lever start) that I flooded, so it wasn't running in the first video, but I did eventually get it fired, and showed it running in the very short second video. Anyway, here are a couple videos and pics. Thanks Matt 9 ranger, Stormin, pmackellow and 6 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
