Briggs & Stratton Customer FAQ

For Briggs & Stratton pressure washers, the recommended oil type is generally 30 weight detergent oil for temperatures above 40°F, or a thinner oil like SAE 10W-30 for colder temperatures. Always check the owner's manual for the specific model for precise oil recommendations and capacity.

Using premium gas in your Briggs & Stratton equipment is generally not necessary unless specified in the user manual. Most engines run efficiently on regular unleaded gasoline. However, always refer to your owner’s manual for the manufacturer’s recommendations for fuel types and octane ratings to ensure optimal performance.

To find the series number on a Briggs & Stratton engine, look for the engine identification label, typically located on the blower housing, the valve cover, or the recoil starter. The label will contain various numbers, including the model number, type, and code. The series number is often part of this information and helps identify the specific engine model. Make sure to check the label carefully for all relevant numbers.

To find out when your parts will be shipped, check your order confirmation or shipping notification email for estimated delivery times and tracking information.
