I have a couple 60 inch mowers one with a P220G (4020) and a zero turn (5820) with a Vanguard 20hp Briggs both Ingersoll. When I hit the tough mowing the onan shines the briggs is a weak sister and loses power immediately.
After I purchased the ZT, (it had set for some time) I repaired the charging system stator and volt reg. I had the flywheel off key was good. I didn't pull the intake but used a rubber cork and my vacuum pump to check for leaks, they pulled down but slowly went back to zero. Set the valves per manual. Compression was good I don't remember how much. Still it was really anemic seemed to pop back thru carb some. It has the the two barrel NIKKI with two different jets.
So I got the next size bigger jet for the large side and moved the existing large jet to the smaller side. There is no fuel solenoid on this. I did replace the twenty dollar o ring /gasket on the bottom of the carb.
Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks Tom
P.S. Oh yeah I reset the mags
