Need Help!

Recommended Posts

mr haney

Man,I need help. I have 211-4 ( about 1985) that runs good untill the engine heats up, then starts cutting out intetmittently. I have gone thru the carb and lines and tank twice. My Question-- what kind of ignition does this have? Points and condensor or solid state? It seems to be braking down under heat. Anyone? thanks, mr haney :thumbs2: :thumbs:

TT

The original Briggs engine on the 211-4 has the Magnetron ignition which does not use points or a condenser.

I would recommend checking the valve clearance as the next step in diagnosing the problem.
