Help identifying Briggs & Stratton engine

The starter is seized up on this chipper but I can’t figure out what engine it has. Anybody know how I can figure out which pull starter I need to order?

I would convert it to electric start. This can easily be done by taking the recoil assembly of and getting a socket adapter for your drill. Put the right sized socket on the drill and put it on the nut holding the flywheel on and pull the trigger. Just make sure you spin it the right way.

 

Didn’t think of that. Going to give it a shot today.

In other news, I found a video showing how to find the model number.

Somewhere on the engine itself will be a stamped model number

 

Best of luck I run into this all the time in Engine Driven Welders .

Engines being manufactured for a private label company Miller Lincoln ETC

Parts can only be ordered from the private label company

 

Borrowed this from my neighbor and told him I’d try to get it running but I think it’s dead. Can’t get the crank to turn even with an impact driver. Pulled off the air filter and lots of corrosion, sprayed it out with parts cleaner and all kind of gunk came out. Might stick my endoscope down the cylinder to look, but I’m thinking it’s a gonner.

 

mystery oil...it prob got water in there and rusted...
