Thanks for the information on the fuel pump. my pump is a Briggs & Stratton brand. Used several of them on lawn tractors that I used to work on and never had a problem. That is why I bought that brand. I hope it stays together but I see your point of the glue. I will research the other type and change it out. Do you know any information on the screw together pump?
Well Gary I bought both styles of the pumps on-line; dirt cheap . They do not have B&S logo on them but they appear to be identical to the B&S pumps…just cheaper.
I have noticed that the O’Reilly stores changed from the glued variety to the screwed ones; perhaps they had issues as well.
I’ve heard it said that 2-stroke engines can have stronger crankcase pulses than the typical 4-Stroke on a tractor etc. Not sure about that. My last use of the glued together pump was on a 10HP Scott Atwater. That pump literally blew apart; I was surprised at the force.
