How to find Briggs & Stratton engine parts?
To find the right Briggs engine parts for model 28U707-1112-E1, we match parts to the exact engine model and any TYPE/CODE on the ID tag, then select the replacement by part ID and description from the parts list. You can also search by model on Sears PartsDirect.

- If your engine tag lists a TYPE and CODE, record those too; they narrow down exact variations.
- Identify the system you are repairing (air intake, fuel, ignition, starting, charging).
- Choose the matching part by part ID and part name; avoid ordering by appearance alone.

What engine is in the Briggs and Stratton 28U707-1112-E1?
The Briggs 28U707-1112-E1 is the engine model itself; it identifies a specific Briggs single-cylinder, 4-cycle, air-cooled vertical-shaft lawn and garden engine configuration. For repairs and maintenance, we match parts to the full model and type code on the engine tag, then order from the parts list for 28U707-1112-E1 or search on Sears PartsDirect.
How to confirm the exact engine configuration (model, type, code)
Briggs engines often share the same base model (like 28U707) but use different type and code numbers that affect carburetion, ignition, charging system, and governor parts.
- Find the stamped or printed ID on the blower housing, valve cover, or recoil shroud
- Record all three fields: MODEL, TYPE, and CODE
- Match parts using the complete ID, not just the mower brand
- If the tag is dirty, wipe it and use a flashlight to read faint stamping
- Use the parts diagrams for 28U707-1112-E1 to avoid ordering the wrong ignition or fuel parts
Common parts that vary by type code (and why)
Even within the 28U707 family, these items commonly differ by type:
| System | What can change | Example part on this model page |
|---|---|---|
| Air intake | Filter style, housing, pre-cleaner | Air filter 496894S |
| Fuel | Fuel line size, inlet fitting style | Fuel line (red) 791766 |
| Ignition | Armature style, kill-wire routing | Armature 591459 |
| Starting | Starter drive design | Lawn & garden equipment engine starter drive assembly 593934 |
Why it matters
Using the full 28U707-1112-E1 identification (including type and code) prevents mismatched parts that can cause hard starting, surging, no-spark conditions, or fuel leaks after installation.
