wfopete 41 #1 Posted June 30 (edited) I've had this C-111 (B&S 11HP engine) for years. I just noticed this "Cut to Fit" notch for the air cleaner housing and then there's the chain gang exhaust. Is this how they came from South Bend? Edited June 30 by wfopete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I adjusted the valves and did a couple other things but all for not. Edited July 1 by wfopete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
