  • Do these engines cut off fuel when not sparking?

  • @uwtitanfan no

  • Ok how to stop that thing?

  • @CssniperAus The original engine had a rod that pulled on the metal strap shorting it to the top of the spark plug. This engine is missing the rod but the metal strap is still there. Another way is to reduce the amount of fuel by a dial in the front of the engine

  • Where is the fuel tank located?

  • The gas tank is under the motor.

  • @OldTimerGuy58 okay, but how much cc is the engine?

  • @wurft 5/8, or 3/4 HP, I think it is. Pretty weak engine for sure.

  • @adriansi1111 It is a hit and miss, and a 2 stroke engine. A internal flywheel governor weight flies out as it goes faster, moving a trip lever out, causing the points to not open and thus not fire, then as it slows down, the points open and closes, making it fire again. The fuel uses a 16:1 ratio 30W ND oil. Simple, fun, sometimes aggravating to work on.

  • I never realized that they used gas for washing machines.

  • Still no need for a repairman!

  • You certainly did a nice job on this one.

  • Oh my god no rinse cycle ---- what are these for washing clothes in the outback ?

  • I have a gas powered microwave.

  • This is a new one on me! Gas powered washer?

  • Is it a hit and miss motor or a two stroke motor??
