This series of engines are vertical crankshaft over head valve engines also known as OHV engines. This type of engine is normally fitted to walk behind equipment.
These have a sponge or paper air cleaner, a plastic petrol tank and a plastic carburettor.
This series has two methods of cold starting
1, is a primer located in the air filter cover or beside the air filter.
2, is the ReadyStart system which has a bi metal spring located by the muffler which operates the choke on the carburettor.
These engines have replaced the CLASSIC™, SPRINT™, QUATTRO™ engines.
The model-type-code can be found stamped into a plate just in front of the carburettor or on the right hand side stamped into the main engine block by the dipstick tube (for more information on how to find your engine numbers click HERE ).
