Default Possible Upgrade

I found a 13hp "Sterling Engine" on eBay for an irresistable price, has anyone else put in a similar "Chinese Honda?" And if so, how does it run and all that? I will probably put my ever-strong FE290 in the camouflage cart. Even if this engine only lasted 2 years, it would be worth my money, BUT on the other side of the fence, it could last just like the Kawasakis or Hondas ( ) do.

I don't know anybody with one, but somebody should try one and run the
crap out of it. I think a lot of people are waiting for someone to go first.

Well, I'm getting ready to buy it, so we'll soon see. Matt should get on and see how it does, that would be the ultimate test!

I'll have an update later...

Is this the one you are looking at NONO? You need electric start.

Here buy this and tell me how you like the diesel. I want one but it will probably be slow as heck.

I'm looking at the 13hp electric start gas engine. And 3,600 is getting up there for a small diesel. That thing would probably torque up anything but be slooooooow. Plus I would like to keep my pedal start, no way with a diesel could I do that. AND, diesels like to keep relatively stable RPMs, you would have to be alternating them all the time with that which would slightly shorten the life of it. Otherwise a very cool idea.
