There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
All of the mounting was ready-to-go right out of the box. The clutch slid on the keyed shaft, and the retaining bolt turned right into the 3/8 - 24 tapped hole. It was only about an hour from opening the box until I was ready to go.
After reading the other reviews, I was concerned about the starter connections, and also about building a battery box. Neither was an issue, as the engine is very easy to start and I haven't felt any need to use the electric starter or connect a battery. A brief examination, however, makes it clear that the only connection necessary is the battery cables - shouldn't be a problem. My tiller has a "dead man" switch that kills the engine if the machine gets away for some reason. Using the schematic, I was easily able to figure out how to connect the kill switch.
The only difficulty I encountered is that I wasn't able to connect the throttle cable from the tiller control handlebar. That hasn't been a big problem - I merely set the engine rpm before I start work, and it goes fine.
The engine is a piece of cake to start - it has started on the first pull every time. It does require a fairly stout tug on the cord, usually a "two handed" tug. It seems louder than the Briggs, but I don't have any way to measure decibels, and if louder, it's by just a little. It runs very smoothly, with no surging or "hunting", and fuel consumption seems reasonable - but, without a meter to count hours of operation, my opinion of fuel consumption is quite subjective. Without a dynomometer, there isn't a way for me to measure actual horsepower output, but there is no doubt is has a bit more zip than the old Briggs.
As of this writing, I have used the engine for about 20 hours without any problem whatsoever. My own measure of engines like this one includes longevity, so I might be back to edit this if the engine doesn't give me a few years of good service. At this point, I don't hesitate to recommend it.
Engine fired right up. It is on an older Bohlens rider w rototiller and 56 in deck cutter. The power and torque it has you don't need to be full throttle for anything. Does an excellent job.
Really glad I bought this engine! Updated w a video 11 Apr 2021
It came before the scheduled time. Hooking up the wiring was the only thing that was a little difficult
It was far far better than I expected. It doesn't even need a starter.It has the low compression start.
Pulling the rope is as easy as a reg. 3 hp. motor. For the money you can't beat it. I highly recommend
it. Runs very smooth and quiet enough.
I have to say it's the only thing I have ever purchased made in China that I am 100% satisfied with.
