valve guide bushing

Indiana George · Oct 22, 2012

I have a 7016 simplicity garden tractor,with a 16 hp briggs engine. I am looking for valve guide bushing, can"t find one.I found some on ebay with the right part #, but it was the wrong size.The old one that i took out, was .564 O.D ,.312 I.D and the length was 2.462.Where can i find one?

Check with a local automotive machine shop they probably buy them by size and if they have something close they'll size it to make it fit right.

You should go to a briggs dealer & see if they can help . I used to have several bushings the driver & reamer to install them. I still have the driver & reamer but don t know if I still have any bushings.

As has been said,goto local briggs dealer or contact briggs customer tech service.

On the 3200 series eng it gets a little confusing as to correct valve guides depending on material guide made of.

My microfiche cards,partstree & newer briggs L head service manual(pn270962)show guide as an aluminum guide pn 231218,however an old briggs manual I have from mid 70's show guide as being a brass guide pn 230665,without knowing material guide made of & pn it could be either guide.

If you have access to a newer briggs L head service manual check in section 6 pg 11,same shows different pn valve guides,no measurements given in drawings,the aluminum guide appears to be the longer guide.

Correction-brass guide is pn 230655,it's too early in the morning & I'm too bleary eyed.
