Flywheel:

if that engine was electric start i would have to horse trade you out of it!

that is so cute, and would be a blast to build an autostart battery charger/domestic hotwater maker out of

something paired with a 200-300amp/hr battery bank, approx a 2kwatt alternator and a 3kwatt inverter
along with both heat exchanger on the exhaust and recovery of the coolant would be very useful an in
a package that would be quite small.

maybe a small car ring gear and starter could be fitted?

that is so cute!

that would sure make a nice test bed engine for a microcogenerator in my opinion.

Cute ! Cost ? Direct or indirect injection ?

Jens.

Cute - yes indeed!  Cost - its been 4-5 years since I bought this one and I don't remember exactly but I believe it was less than $300.  R165 and 165F are both indirect injection with swirl combustion chamber.
