I truly hope that you sand blast it and paint it. It's truly a great piece of history. Restore it back the way it was.

Ok, if this is your first channel and you're doing videos this well, you got something here! Well done! Subbed!

Enjoy watching the whole process - thanks! I'm not much of a mechanic, so when people skip over the hard stuff and "flash" to the end result I can't learn very well.

It’s a washing machine motor, designed to run at one speed.  My grandparents had one……

What a great video. Very smart idea hooking up a 6 volt coil. Ole Bessie sounds great

That engine was used on a washing machine.

Very well done sir, this is the kind of content that sparks my interest. Thank you for that.

Well done on getting it to run, Would have loved to seen a full tear down/rebuild though,

Nice job! I enjoy watching you figure out thru process and elimination. You have a working mind when it comes to mechanical engineering. I had a grandpa who could fix anything mechanical, be it a Swiss watch or a deisel engine. Thanks for posting. Loved it!

I would have used emery cloth on the starter shaft before trying to get the shaft out

Nicely done, the suspense had me! Looking forward to more

That was fun to watch. When you bypassed the 250 triple I thought "aw... that would be fun to play with" but seeing a motor that old start and run reasonably smooth is always great!

I love videos like this! Subbed!!

Diagonal cutters make short work of cotter pins.

I love the sound of those vintage Briggs engines!

This was enjoyable to watch. Didnt feel like over an hour. Nice job!  Old stuff was built to last, and work on.

Ever heard of PB BLASTER OR KROIL? YOU NEED TO STOCK UP ON SOME TOO!

I have a 1934 briggs model y engine. it uses the original ignition system. I need a new coil for mine. max rpm should be 1800 and that mixer is made of cast zinc, or pot metal. anything abrasive can melt it. I collect these model y engines to preserve them for future generations.

Tapping the wrench, like when you were taking the spark plug out, will work better than brute force or a cheater bar. The percussion from the hammer will break the threads loose with less possibility of twisting the threads out with it

Brother, excellent job!  Keep them coming.  Subbed!
