Hi Everyone,

I've aquired and older briggs model 14r6 that has a gear reduction on it. Type 202842 ser no. 631262. Can anyone tell me what year it is and how many hp.

I also have a wisconson S-7D ser no. 4570322 spec 273226. Can anyone tell me what year it is and how many hp. these are.
Thanks Ed

Thanks Paul but I think the model # 14r6 doesn't apply here. I think it pre date that list.

they don't use the model number for the manufacturing date, the date that it was made is in the code after the model and type

Well I can't find a code # on this here motor. Just model, type and serial numbers. Unless its hinding somewhere else.

I know there's some oldies out there - had a local farmer come in, had a Briggs model ZZ - he figured from the 1940's. What was more amazing was our distributor had the head gasket in stock.

Anyway, the code suggests it was made in 1963 (63...), but to find out more you'd have to contact either a Briggs distributor or Briggs directly. I think they have an email link on their site, and I know you can call them but might get voicemail. I punched in the model 14R6 in their IPL system, nothing came up. You talk nice to them they may fax or email you an IPL (illustrated parts list).

I answered your WisCon question in your other post.

Thanks everyone, I did manage to get a Manual downloaded from the Briggs site. Wish all the manuals were as detailed as this. Tells you how to disassemble and reassemble, troubleshoot the works. A beautiful thing.
