hi ,
After much searching I found a site
link www.perr.com
Once u are there go to the ""small engine technical forum"" then to "small engine links forum " then look up B&S manual PDF
This provides all manuals for B&S

Intek
Vanguard
side valve ,over head valve
single ,flat twin ,v twin

Misc outboard ,micro ,vertical shaft ,diesel 3cyl, snow ,2 stroke

Ps some of the pics are below average in quality [u get the idea tho ]
And its free yea ha

PS MIKE THis would be a good link to be posted on this site in your referral section

Did you try the briggs site here:
Manuals & Parts

hi Bazoo guy
The briggs site did no recognize the numbers [accepted the codes with o results ] suggested I contact b&s.
The assumption is that due to it being old 2002 made it is to old
Eg the engine numbers only appear on a few spare parts site BUT NOT ALL

The benefit when u have all the manuals in front of u is u can find yours exactly if u r having trouble .
As we all no some times the numbers can be rubbed off also etc agh agh

cheers tomo
PS is this area on b&s site only for operators manuals and w/shop manuals must be paid for ???

I added that site to our Engine link section here: Six Wheeler Engine Links

Thanks.
