Best Answer

The long term reliability of connectors can vary from one manufacturer to another but a typical connector durability is rated in the order of 10,000 mating cycles. The durability is a normal quoted parameter in component data sheets so we can rely on it being the result of testing rather than guess work. It is important to be aware that rough handling of the connector can substantially reduce the durability.

If the connector is swapped twice each day, the life of the connector should last for anything up to ten years. It is very likely that the conductors inside the cable will fail due to bending far sooner than the connector itself will wear out.

Where is the stop switch on a Briggs and Stratton mower engine?

If the mower has a shift knob control for "Start" "Run" and 'Stop', the kill switch will be on the end of the cable that leads to the throttle bracket. If the mower has the safety handle that shuts off the mower when it is not depressed, the kill switch will be at the end of the cable that leads from the handle to the engine. If the mower is operated with an on-off ignition switch, the kill switch wire will be spliced to the switch "off" wire some where between the throttle cable and the switch.
