Default Briggs and Stratton boycott!

Their products aren't that good, and they like to cripple americans.
How can we support that?

No one "likes to cripple" anyone. That is just a stupid thing to say.

If not B&S then what are the choices ?

Kohler, Tecumcseh, Honda, Kawasaki, Linamar (Kubota), Onan, Robin,
Wisconsin are some of the other big ones.

But Briggs and Stratton is the best!
Blattus Slafaly ? 3 7/8


Kohler just hangs on based on an old reputation.
Tecumseh never was very good.
Honda is overpriced.
Same with Kawasacki.
Doesn't Onana only make the bigger sizes. (The only one I have is a 20 horse
twin)
Is Wisconsin still in business ?

Wisconsin/Continental is still in business. Mostly heavy duty construction
equipment engines.

Cummins/Onan no longer make engines but support all the engines in the
field.

Honda is prices the same as Briggs and Stratton, check out Northern Tools.

Ha, Tecumseh is one of the best engines ever made.I have a 30 year old 8hp
on my snowblower. And an S200 Toro 2cycle 20+ years old still strong. But
I love my Vanguard 16hp V Twin Briggs on my Case lawn tractor. And my
Kohler 12hp K Series still runs good after a rebuild.

I figured I would get a response to that "analysis". That old Kohler K is
my favorite. I have them on a few old Sears Suburbans, two old Wheelhorses,
and two old Cub Cadets. Happy trails !!!
