I got the regulator from Autozone. Suppose to be for an older GM car.

Also, where is the charging system on a Briggs? Is it in-built - like
in the flywheel? Where would be the diode that you are talking about?


Yeah, it is a coil mounted around the flywheel.

You can go to the B&S Site and get an illustrated parts listing:

http://www.briggsandstratton.com/dis...sp?DocID=64103

If you have your engine number. (It will read something like
234432-0235). That model, engine type number will probably give you and
idea of what you are looking at.

Click on Owners Manual - Parts list

Under Illustrated Parts list click on "Engine IPL"

In the left hand column click on "Engine IPLs"

Now enter the Model number (such as the 234432 above) and then the
Engine type (such as the 0235 above).

Then you should have an option of downloading a IPL Form into a PDF file.
