I have a 20 year old mower with a 22 HP Briggs V-Twin engine ( over head valve)... It started having an idle problem a couple years ago.. Ran ok, but dies if you idle it down.. Read on YOU TUBE and the double barrel carb sets between the V and two bolts on the OUTSIDE on each side of the carb... That causes the carb or manifold to WARP about 1/16 of an inch and leak at between the carb and manifold faces.... Took mine apart 6 months ago and YEP... thats what i had.. Took the carb apart and it definitely needed a "rebuild" in addition to file the manifold flat.... Looked on AMAZON and the "KIT" was about $15. and an ENTIRE NEW CARB was about $20.... so i did that.... Now it works GREAT... just thought i would pass along the info on V-twin engines with the double barrel carb... and Chineese FIX for it ( plus manifold facing)...

Like them all, but love the "B"s.
