after using fuel, switch to a different fuel provider or change
brands. This engine is certified to operate on gasoline. The
emission control system for this engine is EM (Engine

fuel system of an engine while in storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should betreated
with a fuel preserver or emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer. If adding a fuel preserver,fill the fuel tank with fresh
fuel. if only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel
deterioration during storage, if fuel preserver is not used,
drain the fuel tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel
linesand carburetor are empty. Usefresh fuel nextseason.
SeeStoragefor additional information.
NEVERuseengine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel
tank as permanent damagemay occur.
NighAJtitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum
85 octane / 85 AKI (89 RON)gasoline is acceptable.To
remainemissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is
required. Operationwithout this adjustment will cause
decreasedperformance, increasedfuel consumption, and
increasedemissions. Seea qualified Sears dealerfor high
altitude adjustment information. Operation of the engine at
altitudes below 2,500 feet (762 meters)with the high altitude
kit is not recommended.

EHGINETECHNICALINFORMATIOH PRODUCTSPECIFICATIOHS
This is a single cylinder, L-head,air cooled engine. It is a low
emissions engine.
Inthe Stateof California, Model90000 enginesarecertified
by the California Air Resources Boardto meet emissions
standardsfor 125 hours. Such certification does not grant
the purchaser, owner or operator of this engine any
additional warranties with respectto the performance or
operational life of this engine.Theengine is warranted solely
according to the product and emissions warranties stated
elsewherein this manual.
Power Ratings
Thegross power rating for individual gas engine models is
labeledin accordancewith SAE(Society of Automotive
Engineers)code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque
Rating Procedure),and rating performance has been
obtained andcorrected in accordancewith SAEJ1995
(Revision2002-05). Torquevalues are derived at3060 RPM;
horsepower values are derivedat 3600 RPM.Actual gross
engine power will be lower andis affected by, among other
things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine
variability. Given both the wide array of products on which
enginesareplacedand the variety of environmental issues
applicableto operatingthe equipment, the gas engine will not
developthe ratedgross power when used in a given pieceof
power equipment (actual "on-site" or net horsepower). This
difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not
limited to, accessories (air cleaner, exhaust,charging,
cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations,
ambient operating conditions (temperature,humidity,
altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to
manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton
maysubstitute anengine of higher ratedpower for this
Seriesengine.

NOTE:Synthetic oil meeting ILSACGF-2,API certification
mark and API servicesymbol with "SJ/CF ENERGY
CONSERVING"or higher, is an acceptableoil atall
temperatures. Use of synthetic oil does not alter required oil
change intervals.
SAE30: 40°F and higher (5°C andhigher) is good for all
purpose useabove40°F, usebelow 40°Fwill causehard
starting.
10W-30:0 to IO0°F (-18 to 38°C) is better for varying
temperature conditions. This viscosity improves cold weather
starting, but may increaseoil consumption above80°F
(27°C).
*Check oil level frequently at higher temperatures.
Synthetic 5W-30:-20 to 120°F(-30 to 40 °C)providesthe
best protection at all temperatures as well as improved
starting with less oil consumption.
5W-30: 40°F and below (5°C and below) is recommended for
