Is the float included in an overhaul kit?

just sent a reply  but in case it didnt get there try this web site
http://www.bser.com/ give him a call if need be. always a good source for me.
mike

it would be nice on the home page description if the year
of manufacture was indicated along with the model 23 as
the defining criteria for antique engines.

I hae a 15 yr old engine and dont know if it is
antique or not ?

Also have many other engines 20 and 30 years old
but dont know their model numbers at this time.
Thanks

post the numbers you have and i will check with my repair shop who bought out
many old briggs parts

Well, I can't find a Clinton around
here.
WBS here is the pix again.



Doug,

You are right as the bore on this carb
is only about 1/2 inch.  The generator is 800 Watts so the engine is about
1.6 HP. I am sure that the configuration is original. The mixture needle was
seized in the carb; I used a lot of P-oil and patience , but managed to twist
the needle off.  Disaster,  I drilled it out  and replaced the
needle with one from a Tecumseh which has a 8-32 thread and used a cap off a
spark plug with the same thread. I can get the engine to run for an hour or more
by controlling the fuel flow from the fuel tank shut off valve and I will charge
the battery at 28 Amps. ( this feels like confession time.) So the carb is
messed up. I also took the spherical float apart to remove a bit dent in it.
That went back together well.

I think the engine was made in a real
hurry as there was a negative clearance between the flywheel and the laminations
of the magneto and the governor housing.

The carb Ed is looking for is a Zenith that has pipe threads and a 90
degree elbow where it attaches to the engine. The picture was embedded
in Ed's original post. You may have to change an email setting to allow
images. This wasn't a real common carb on anything or maybe it was just
short-lived. I just got rid of a rusted hulk of a Choremaster garden
tractor that had a Clinton with this carb. I'll agree, Carter was the
most common but you do see this style carb once in awhile. I've got a
Simplicity built Wards with a Lauson that uses this carb. It's either a
TLC or RSC model. I think it's only 3/4 HP. That's why I was questioning
if it would be enough carb to run an Onan generator. I've got a couple
single cylinder Onans, one badged as a Fairbanks Morse. I think they are
rated at 2 1/2 HP. The intake tube on those engines are part of the
manifold and they use a bigger updraft Zenith. Maybe somebody modified
Ed's?? Somewhere in the not too distant past I remember seeing some of
these carbs like he is looking for NOS at a swap meet. maybe they will
be at Coolspring this weekend. Doug T

Finally getting this 23c apart the armature laminations are
loose and the points are shot. First does anyone know where
I can buy these? Second, will these new solid state
ignitions work on this engine? If it will where can these
be bought?

I would think basically the "off the shelf" Briggs color would have been
black. If they were special ordered through an equipment mfg they could
be any color depending on the mfg. Any other thoughts?? Doug T
