I believe the warranty was one year, and this engine is two years old. I was surprised that the pinion gear was steel and the ring gear aluminum. I thought all of the Briggs motors used plastic pinion gears. The engine came from the Small Engine Warehouse. Can't see how the mounting of the starter allows for any adjustment. Please educate me on that. Are all of the ring gears aluminum? I am thinking that a steel one would be preferred. Looked at some ring gears, but based on my engine number, supplier needed more info. They also listed steel ring gears in their ads, but not necessarily for my engine. They will get back to me by email. Not looking forward to pulling that engine that is for sure. Thanks for your input.
