Post IM heads warranty?
The starboard cylinder blows a puff of white smoke for a few seconds after starting when it's sat up a few days. Local Briggs mechanic told me it's a valve seal. Do IM heads come with a warranty that covers this?

Thanks,
Rod

All BPS products come with a 1 year warranty.


Rod, if you dont feel like dragging the boat down here, I have plenty of valve stem seals in stock and will be happy to give (and ship) you a set. Otherwise bring the boat on over and we'll get em changed.

Also, I have seen on a couple other occasions where the spring will pop off of the seal (the small inner seal that holds the seal to the valve stem). Get a good flash light and make sure that this didnt happen.
