I have a member in the family that just purchased a mower with a Briggs & Stratton SQ engine. We are puzzled about what SQ stands for. Does anyone know?

I got the reply from Briggs & Stratton today. Here it is:
Thank you for contacting Briggs & Stratton eCustomer Support!

Actually, the "SQ" does not stand for anything or have any significant meaning.

actually...those letters arent from our alphabet as we know it.

that engine design is so antiquated that they used ancient heiroglyphs from the middle east to describe its function.

it actually translates into ...MADE BY LONG LOST AMERICAN INDIANS...AKA TECUMSEH and FLYING TURD.

sorry i wasnt much help earlier with this but i had to do a lot of research into this and it takes a while sometimes.

Thanks, for your help Chris. I take it that Briggs doesn't know what SQ stands for because Tecumseh has a part in making the engine? That's what I got out of what you said.
