I saw a comment I think in this NG about finding replacement B & S
engines - the one on my cylinder lawn mower has lost compression and I
can't find why despite stripping most of it down and the solution seems
to be to find a replacement. The question is where to go to ?


Probably cheaper to go to one of the sheds and buy a whole new mower than
getting a new engine from your local B&S dealer. If you existing body etc
is good buy a really cheapy mower just for the engine and dump all the
new body bits. Though if your careful with choice many parts could be
used as spares...
