Needed -- B&S 694035 Camshaft

Postby Mr Mower Man » Wed Jan 27, 2016 11:01 am

I have a Briggs & Stratton 121607-0218-E1 (Date code 981216FA) on a DR Trimmer that has a compression release failure on the camshaft. I found an image online to confirm that it is indeed part number 694035 that I need, and it's NLA. I plan to call some places that advertise having obsolete parts, but does anyone here know where I can find one of these? Thanks.

Not new...May need search a few engine graveyards.

Part going NLA are a lot reason normally good otherwise equipment dies off. The manufactures are not keeping inventories like they when I growing up. Anything over 5 years old is lucky if any parts are still around. A few manufactures are still making parts for older popular equipment as they still make a profit doing so.

I had a pair MacCat chainsaws that only lived because I use one for spare parts. I even keep using the last one for another 5 years after the bar oil pump failed. I finally needed a replacement ring and none could be found.

At least it not one of the China clones that you can't even parts for when new.
