arrow
V-Twin OHV Technology

V-Twin engine design provides better balance and allows for increased power. OHV technology optimizes performance for a longer engine life and enhanced fuel economy.

Maximum Durability

Engine block designed to provide superior durability. Cast iron cylinder sleeve adds integrity and durability that withstands wear and abuse while providing improved oil control.

Optimized Fuel Delivery

Reliable starting and superior performance.

OEM Selectable Speed option

OEMs can recalibrate the engine ECU to achieve specific speed settings using either analog signals (0-5V) or CAN (Controller Area Network) controls.*

Superior Balance

The dynamically balanced crankshaft, light weight piston and ring package minimize engine noise and vibration and improve high temperature durability.

Optimized Fuel Delivery
Cyclonic air cleaner
High Efficiency Head Design

Angled ports optimizes tumble and mixture preparation for improved efficiency, smoother idle, lower emissions and more power.

Improved Sound Quality

Engineered resin blower housing and phase modulated flywheel fan for lower noise level and improved sound quality.

Smooth Easy Starting

The mechanical compression release eases the starter to crank the engine. Magnetron electronic ignition system ensures quick dependable starts with no maintenance required. The result is a smooth easier starting and longer starter life. Optional rewind start and solenoid shift starter.

Test

35 HP GROSS POWER*

* Power Ratings: The gross power rating for individual gasoline engine models is labelled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code J1940 Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure, and is rated in accordance with SAE J1995. Torque values are derived at 2600 RPM for those engines with "rpm" called out on the label and 3060 for all others; horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM. The gross power curves can be viewed at www.briggsandstratton.com. Net power values are taken with exhaust and air cleaner installed whereas gross power values are collected without these attachments. Actual gross engine power will be higher than net engine power and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine variability. Given the wide array of products on which engines are placed, the gasoline engine may not develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment. This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to.the variety of engine components (air cleaner, exhaust. charging, cooling, carburettor. fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated power for this engine.
