5hp Briggs and Statton Carburetor Replacement

[@mattguerin7354]

So glad I found this video, I replaced the carb on my tiller, and I couldn’t get the choke to stay open in the new one, I was loosing my mind wondering what was I doing wrong!! I put a spring like you did, but I knew that wasn’t how it came off (I didn’t have the old carb unfortunately to cross reference, but I took pics lol) now seeing your video I feel so much better

[@SoatMon]

I'm glad it helped!

[@zacatkbricks]

Thank you for the video bud! I was a bit nervous in replacing my carb on my fun power version of this engine. I could not find anything other than this video and I greatly appreciate you showing the steps on the carb replacement.

[@SoatMon]

Very welcome! Thank you for taking the time to let me know.

Dear, your video is Excel lentu.Could you sand me the gas and choke connection diagram as l am missing same details. Best regards.

[@donkoenig905]

Thank you! I'm a "novice weekend warrior mechanic" & your instructional video helped me replace the carburetor on my Briggs & Stratton rototiller. I ordered new carb from Amazon & that delivered it overnight. Big Thanks!!

[@SoatMon]

You are welcome!

@@SoatMon what is part number? all 5HP Briggs & Stratton uses same carb?

[@rooster4430]

Thanks for the video. The governor spring popped off when I was pulling the tank off and I couldn't figure out where it connected. Watching your video I saw where it connects and now my wood splitter is running right.

[@SoatMon]

Excellent. Thanks for letting me know.

[@stevencote7951]

I have the same motor on a leaf blower and bought the same carb. Still did work right now I see why I need that spring for the choke. Would you know how long it is? I figured around2". And yeas make sure to take lots of phots unless you enjoy puzzles,

Great tip on taking a picture. In my youth, before we all carried a camera with us at all times, referring to a photo would have saved me so much frustration & expense.

[@SoatMon]

Yeah a picture back then would have taken several days to get back and then it would have been too dark and out of focus! Pictures have definitely improved. They save me many times. I actually needed it on this one to get the linkage back on correctly.

[@bill.Latham]

Sir, does that black wire go inside the clear plastic on the bottom of the fuel tank by the linkage? Thank You

[@bill.Latham]

I am having to remove the fuel tank because of gasoline that has been left in the tank for years since I last use the tiller. My question is where can I find the carburetor number; my carburetor looks like yours, but there are so many different models I just want to be sure. Thank You very much

[@MuddFlappRanch]

Another great how to. I had a co-worker ask me if I could rebuild a carb for his mower if he brought it to me. I told I could, but the rebuild kit would cost as much as a replacement carb, and since he felt he could remove and replace the carb he should do that. I was a little off, as the rebuild kit would have been $6 cheaper. He took my advice.

[@SoatMon]

It's just not worth trying to fix them anymore.

[@austinedinger1649]

Super informative video! I'm working on my tiller as well and I need to track down and purchase a few parts, and the model number on my Briggs is no longer there. I believe we have the same 5hp Briggs and was wondering if you'd be able to share the model number for yours? Thank you!

[@SoatMon]

Thank you! Model number is 135292

Got one on kids new go cart thanks man best vidow ive seen str8 to the point

[@SoatMon]

That's a great compliment! Thanks!

[@reesemolloy6109]

Hey I got a question I bought a new carb for this and it came with a fuel filter? But I don’t know where to install it

[@SoatMon]

The filter goes in the fuel line between the gas tank and the carburetor. There should already be one that you would replace.

[@reesemolloy6109]

@@SoatMon I don’t see a fuel line I thought there was none because I thought the stick below it sucked the fuel

[@gptsiteuser]

@@reesemolloy6109he doesn’t know what he’s talking about he didn’t even try to clean it

[@reesemolloy6109]

@ yea present me I returned it and learned how to clean a carb and now it runs great and has a cvt on it it is on my channel if u want to see it

[@MAshire3]

Thanks for a straight to the point video, great video and helpful!

[@SoatMon]

Glad it was helpful!

[@willh1624]

Where did you buy the carb? When I search it all I get is kits to rebuild. My carb is identical to yours.

[@SoatMon]

The one I bought is in the description of the video. Hope you get it fixedvv

[@donkoenig905]

I used the B&S carb model # & Amazon delivered overnight for less than $20

[@jimmyjames1092]

Why the extra hole on top of the carburetor that leads to the gas tank?
