well if this helps any it isnt very hard to turn over, but when running it would run strong and started right up, all that happened is that it just quit running.

YES its fast NO you cant ride it.
You need to pull the flywheel and replace the key if it is sheered. If it isnt sheered then pull the head and unstick the exhaust valve. Put your hand by the exhaust and pull the starter, if you feel exhaust gas being vented then it is something else. If there is no exhaust gas being vented then you definetly have a stuck valve. If the valve is stuck closed then it will be hard to turn over and you will probably bend the valve. What is the motor on?
There are no stupid questions, but there are alot of stupid people out there that ask questions.
None of us are capable of screwing things up as bad as a group of us.

he said it was just running then stoped so how would the exuast valve be stuck they cant just get stuck when its running? only when it sits for like years.
these briggs motors...you gotta take off the flywheel sometimes to check the key...that washer makes it look like its still good but its not.....you could have fouled a plug or have low compression did you check that?

well, ive replaced the sprk plug and ive pulled the flywheel and the key isnt sheered, its in perfect shape, but the thing is it always ran strong and started good, but I was just mowing the lawn with it and it quit running, ive cleaned the car, changed the plug, checked the flywhel key so are you guys leening towards a stuck valve?

have you pulled the head to be sure the valves are seating.
sometimes the valves will stick but still move up and down.
what brand plug are you using.
briggs engines only like champion plugs.
i'd use a J19LM or # 845 champion and gap it at .025".
you'd think it won't make a differance but i've made a lot of owners believers.
if this engine has points igniton gap the points ( under the flywheel) to .020".
you could possibly had a bad condenser or a burnt set of points.
i don't remember the part number, but you can change the coil and do away with the points.
this is what i usually do for my customers.
i'd check the valves and go from there.
if the points were burnt out would there still be spark, becuase the engine still has spark?

did you pull the head? the valve seats in briggs, on the exhaust valve mainly will pop out and hold the valve open. try this, put your finger over the spark plug hole and spin the engine over. your finger should get blown off the hole.

I just whent outsaide and put my thumb over the hole and there hardly is any pressure, i can keep my thumb on the hole for as long as I want., so now what do you think th problem is, when it was running it didnt smoke and always started easily?

well first check the tightness of the head. i know thats not a word! the bolts near the exhaust ussually loosen up. if there loose then tighten then and try to start it. if it doesn't start, or the bolts weren't lose, pull the head. and look for a valve seat that came out or carbon build up.
