c-series don 11,374 #9 Posted 7 hours ago I wish I had an hour meter on my Work Horse GT-1800, that Briggs and Stratton has thousands of hours on it. What I wouldn’t give to know that exact number. I will never say anything bad about the older Briggs engines. With proper maintenance they will last and last………. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
