    Hi i'm having an issue with my newly acquired 16hp briggs opposed twin, it seems to be running hot to the point that it gets uncomfortable on your feet and this condition eventually leads to it running out of fuel and dying. It starts great and runs (cuts grass) strong for about 40 minutes but...

    I bought a second hand 2013 McCormick F85XL in January 2018. It has had numerous problems and I've just had it at the mechanic. It had several things repaired (new water pump gaskets, new timing case gaskets, new front crank seal etc) as well as a full 3000 hour service. It also had an electric...
