Attachment 5900

It just doesnt look normal thats all

Did they make a 12hp version of that motor?

They make a 357 but it usually found in the Prohaulers. The G16 engines will rev. and wind out like no other. They are build for speed. I had a 99 and it would scream on the open road.

I really don't know. I just knew to back off on mine when the valves started floating.

Just don't run it wide open for long periods of times. And keep that oil changed!!! I ran mobil 1 syn. in mine. Heck in only holds a little over a quart. I also removed the crank case vent from the air filter box, plugged at the air filter box, and let the vent hose hang down to the ground. Mine would blow gas up into the air box after a while if I was giving it heck! That was the fastest stock cart I've ever owned. It did have the spring/spacer only torque kit on it but it would still scream. Just keep the oil changed and don't run wide open for long periods of time. You'll know when to back off. You can listen to the engine and tell when it winds out.
