Need a carb for a Briggs engine????

[Arkie]

Briggs model 133432, type, 0036-01, code 93033027

parts lists shows 495652 DISCONTINUED or BS-495652

Seems strange that not even a clone type will show?????

Anyone have any type of cross reference???

Was donated this good complete low hours engine missing the carb. (because they said they could not find a replacement carb) so they bought a $100 HF Predator as a replacement engine.

Kinda strange because I have Briggs engines several years older than this engine and can still find replacement carbs, even easily cross referenced clones.

How close would a quantum auto choke carb be? 799866

It would require at least the choke vane, choke shaft, throttle shaft, and main jet change outs.

Briggs 5 hp engine listed above that carb is no longer available is now a Tecumseh/Briggs Frankenstein engine.

Found one of these old Tecumseh adjustable jet Carbs in my box of old carbs, bolted right up onto the 5 HP Briggs engine manifold listed above, Governor linkages fit with no mods and worked great.
Had to use the little round Tecumseh air filter housing that was on the HS type Tecumseh engines.

Tecumseh Carb 631918 HS40 4HP HS50 5HP

But does it have an immunity to to the new corona virus?

as long as the air cleaner wasn't made in china.

The Tecumseh stuff that I used was the old OEM USA made non china covid 19 stuff.
If it were the China type parts I would have sprayed it with alcohol and a strong bleach solution from a distance while wearing a respirator before getting close to the parts.
Seen on news where the covid 19 can maybe live for a few days on cardboard.

I remember a guy called T-man from the old Perr forums. He was a Tecumseh specialist and really proud of the Tecumseh engines.
I just hope I did not shame him very much by using old Tecumseh parts on a Briggs engine.

Just don't go bonkers but do use common sense. It like any other disease, you must take care but just don't over do it and panic. I got a neighbor that is scared to death because of the news. I told to just turn off the television set.

Personally I just keep doing what I have always done to be safe but I am not going out by buying tons of hand sanitizers or masks. I am going to keep on working and not worry what could happen. As far as PT I know to use alternatives if needed. I also know not to use three leaf stuff and pine cones.

PS even if Torland issues orders for me to stay home they not stopping me from working.

I read that appliance repair people are considered essential. As well as people that support agriculture. There's your permission slip.
I've seen a couple of folks at wits end about the whole thing. Sad.
