Briggs and Stratton Engines & Small Engine

I know enough about my garden tractor to know when something is wrong with it. I even know enough to know that when it broke down, it was the engine that needed replacing – not the entire machine. What I didn’t know is that I don’t have to special-order the engine from the manufacturer. I very nearly made that mistake, but instead I was directed to Repower Specialists.

I had never visited a small engine warehouse before and I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I knew about Briggs and Stratton engines  and Kohler engine rebuild kits, but I didn’t know what precisely they were or how to know what one to buy for my garden tractor. Far from making me feel intimidated, however, the folks at Repower Specialist were welcoming and helpful and they helped me pick out the exact product that was right for me – right for my ailing garden tractor!

To be quite honest, I still don’t fully understand what a Kohler engine rebuild kit is, but I am now more than familiar with Briggs and Stratton engines . I know how they work and how to put them in my garden tractor. I know that if I ever need any assistance with it I can call up that small engine warehouse and all those nice people at Repower Specialist will do everything they can to ease my concerns. In the mean time, I shouldn’t have to worry any more about my garden tractor giving out on me when I need it most.

Off Road Go-Kart Engine

My favorite recreational vehicle has always been my off road go-kart. Ever since my dad first gave it to me when I turned 18, I have made sure to constantly keep it into the best shape it could be in. Whenever it got dirty, I would clean it and whenever there was the slightest problem with it, I would fix it up as soon as I could. Luckily, because my dad had bought it brand new, there was never any wear to it and it never had many problems. It ran just how it was supposed to and all the features were intact.

            However, after a few years of usage, the quality started to decrease. With school and work I started to have less time to keep it in good condition. During summer, when school had finally been let out for the season, I tried to start my go-kart back up but it refused to run. I'd turn the key and it was dead silent: there was no motion and no sound to be made. Though I wasn't surprised to see this happening, I was upset that I had disregarded my duties to keep this in tip-top shape.

            I went through the different parts that could be hindering my kart to start. It took me a while to figure out that it was the engine that had given out and because I was no specialist in this area, I had no idea why this had happened. I thought that my go-kart was a goner and that I wouldn't be able to ever use it again, so I looked up different go-karts online that I could possibly purchase. Noticing that it would take me years to save up for a new one, I decided to look into fixing my current one even though I knew it would be difficult because I've had no prior experience.

            With my dad helping me, we found the company Repower Specialists who sold Honda small engines, Kohler small engines and Briggs and Stratton small engines. My dad was familiar the Kohler small engines so he suggested we try to replace the old engine with this one instead.

            After receiving the small engine, my dad helped me to replace the dead engine. I was a little hesitant at first, wondering if a new engine would really make a difference. However, when we were done with replacing it, my dad took the key to start my go-kart and it was able to start up! Still cautious, I got in and took it for a test round. Even though I didn't get a new go-kart, the new Kohler small engine sure made it seem like it.
