Whasup guys,

Well...I got my old trimmer working(The carb. settings were too lean actually) and I need a brand new engine to bring into school for a project I picked on the internal combustion engine. I'm supposed to get one that runs and I figured I could pick up a new 32 cc Trimmer engine for about $50 or 60 new or maybe less at a garage sale. Anyways, If I did get a new engine, would would you recommend? I don't want to bring my nitro engine in because it's too small to show the whole class and too loud.

I was really looking at a 4-stroke as I don't need to power of a 2 stroke and they're much more enviornmental-friendly. I see Honda has a 32 cc 4-stroke. It doesn't have to be the best, but I want something nice for a fairly low price. I'd like to fix up my car, but school work comes first I guess.:arrr:

Thanks,
Spit
 
2 strokers are much easier to work with... less stuff to deal with inside. Crank, bearings, con-rod, piston, liner, reed valve... carb!

What's the project? Just to tear down and explain an engine? Why does it have to be new?
