How do I find out what the Series number is on my Briggs and Stratton Engine?
I have found, and do know the model, type, and code of my engine, but I am looking for the Series number.
When I'm looking for a tune-up kit for my Briggs and Stratton engine, the tune-up kit packages list the Series numbers for the engines that they fit. However, there is nothing on my engine (model, type, or code) that matches this series number, and I can't find any cross-reference charts to match it up.
I want to be able to find the correct tune-up kit without having to ask my dealer to look it up. Also it's just annoying that the tune-up kit's matching models are displayed so prominently as a reference, but that information is no where to be found.
I called my dealer, and they were no help. He said, "Everything we do is based on model, type, and code."
Examples:
Here's a tune-up kit. The description shows exactly what I mean when it lists the Series numbers in this line: "This Briggs & Stratton Genuine Tune-Up Kit is designed exclusively for 625e, 675ex, 725ex Series™, 625-675 Series™ and Quantum™ 3.5-6.75 gross HP‡ push mower engines"
Here's the information I have:
DOM NOV 2010
128T02-3124-B1
My understanding is that this means:
- Model:
128T02
- Type:
3124
- Code:
B1
B1
rather than an eight, but that doesn't really help you. Interesting that the series number is such a closely guarded secret, lol. – JPhi1618 Oct 19 '15 at 18:21
