update 10/11/17. I’ve got 2 gallons through this motor now and my review stands. It’s the best value running for 200 dollar engines. A bit slow to warm up, behaves like a bratty kid until it does, but once it’s warm, it rolls out. Holds a tune fantastically well, just don’t finger it while it’s warming up. It’ll run like crap for 4 to five minutes even with a head heat but then smooths right out and idles for.
update ran about 10-12 gallons before i had to change the bearings everything else looks brand new
