Chris727 1,849 Posted December 17, 2007 Paul, don't feel too bad, as I stated in show'n'tell I did the same thing to my b12 last year, now when using the 10w-30 I check the oil every 20 or 30 minutes of use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLT 715 Posted December 17, 2007 Try this. From memory on 3 HP line umpity years ago. 82= 1982, 03 = March, 01 = day and 1 means the line it was built on. I believe the "E" number shown was as put on by Briggs. That was almost 20 something years after I left. There were no individual serial numbers, only batch numbers indicated by date and line number. Keep in mind, that in their hey day, almost 60,000 3 HP engines were built in a day and coming mostly from Milwaukee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D-17_Dave 12 Posted December 17, 2007 Paul, I bet you threw that rod on purpose just so you could tease us at another look at your shop. Boy I love all that stainless countertop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goatfarmer 817 Posted December 18, 2007 When I first got my 2110, the engine inside looked like your #1. No wonder I couldn't get it started.......:p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glacier 0 Posted December 18, 2007 I read your thread on the 101, I know the feeling, I was out blowing snow this afternoon with my hb212 (yes I did check the oil) I had just made my last pass and I heard an awful sound and the motor quit. After some looking around I found a 4" crack in the side of the block. I figure it is a good time to repower so I started the removal of the 12hp and get ready to insert the 16hp. I'll get a pic of the 12hp tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
