    Briggs 5hp spark plug type?

    rj19lm is the standard plug for a 5hp flathead! On a modified or methanol engine..an Autolite 411 plug works great!

    Sleeving a coolbore block

    Honestly you will spend more sleveing the block than replacing it with a new cast Iron bore block! DOUBLE BEARING I/C BLOCK :: FLATHEAD - CYL./CRANKS/HEADS :: Engines :: Dixie Karting Inc Unless you have a specialty racing prepped block, you will be better off getting new!

    5 HP Rebuild

    Check you valve guides for wear, and what is your ring end gap? you said it was shipped with oil still in it, if it got turned upside down it will get oil in the cylinder.

    What Carb to Buy

    Try a tilly 360 carb, they are a good gas carb and be fine tuned....Plus they look freaking sweet hanging off the back of a flatty:thumbsup
