Are Honda small engines in general more reliable than Briggs small engines?

Nov 14, 2009 by Adam | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

Looking into buying a generator at my local hardware store and one has a 5.5HP Honda engine and the other is a 6HP Briggs and Stratton. The one with the Honda engine is $40 dollars more however. Should I just pay the extra for the Honda engine?

Yes it will out last the briggs engine....It can be a little harder to find parts for the honda though...
