Can You Identify This Engine?

And unfortunately even with chinese clones motors may look identical but many use completely diff parts.

That isn't really the case with clones of Honda industrial engines. Especially 5.5 and 6.5 hp models. Now clones of Honda pitbike engines may be another story. I won't weigh in on that. The only clones (remember industrial engines here) that have different parts are the Predators.

That explains my answer. Lol with harbor freight being. Nearby the only clone engines I deal. With in repair of work engines are predator mainly the 212. But Its Good to. Know. At least in case anyare sent my way.

ok that a neat idea using the fins like that i usually measure the bore with calipers and get the spec of diff engines till i find a match. Rmm has a point honda has identification cast into the block. And unfortunately even with chinese clones motors may look identical but many use completely diff parts. Add in ones stroke might be a tiny tiny bit longer with just a larger bore to still keep the same cc some might be good with one type of intake restriction (honda xr stock engine finickiness) while not running at all with one. Tiny change one may use one resistance another something diff. For a few of many examples for the most part. Sometimes you can swap entire. Carbs around....if the bolts and ports match but that's not exactly a given what's the model serial ect numbers? I've got a. Few suppliers i can run it by to see

Look under the gas tank at the front of the engine (part under the gas tank behind the seat). It'll be cast. Much like rmm said, just to let you know where to look.

What am I looking for?

A honda number that won't be there on a clone engine

Having the serial number and it not being honda serial number I wouldn't bother.
