If you want an engine to start, run and do the job, buy a GENUINE HONDA GX single. If you want something to wear yourself out on starting it, buy just about anything else. If you want to buy parts, buy a Briggs. In my experinece with small engines, Honda's have been best... I have a Honda on a feed cart in the barn that runs every day with very little in the way of maintenance and no dountime, ever, aside from cleaning the plug about twice in 9 years,one pull cord and changing the oil every other year.... Leave it sit all summer, get on it, choke, full throttle, one rip. It's running. That's the HALLMARK of a Honda engine. I've also spent some time around the fire department with Honda's, newer and older Briggs, Wajax, Kohler and Tecumse engines. I don't like the way any of them start except the Honda and the older briggs in particular seem to give constant trouble of some sort or another. The Honda's, for years and years have been the workhorses in our portable pumps, and that's ALL about reliability.
If you want a cheap engine, mabey a Honda knockoff will do, but I think if you want something long lasting, go with the genuine thing. You'll pay more, but I think you'll find you get more.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
