Replacement parts for honda clone

[jonesie8807]

I bought a jiangdung blue 6.5 hp engine on ebay and when i got it the cover over the recoil was dented and that impact broke the wheel that the rope goes around and the blue panel behind that is bent right next to the red on/off switch. I cannot even pull the recoil.

If i were to buy a honda recoil wheel and the cover would that fit correctly on this engine? i know they are clones but i just want to make sure. any advice would be great thanks

They say they are 99% compatible with each other...

Much better than eBay or such.

what did you pay for the motor you know there pretty cheap at h.f. with a warrenty

 

[oscaryu1]

He bought it from eBay. He'll most likely have to pay return shipping.

oscary - yes i bought it on ebay. i called the seller and they sent me a new one and never asked for this one back so i have an extra lol so i basically got 2 for the price of one. Thanks for the website.

ironman - i think it was 140 including shipping but i got a replacement for free. ya i know about H.F. i would like to go to one but the closest one to me is like over an hour away i think. i live in the SF bay area (San Jose)

O and by the way wat is the honda model number equivalent?

 

[oscaryu1]

Damn whadda steal! *Prays for UPS to drop every engine I order*

Your equivalent would be the GX200.

[oscaryu1]

[jonesie8807]

I know a good bit about turbocharging. In the past 5 years, I've had a turbo prelude, 2 turbo civics, a turbo 240sx and now a turbo miata.

You are going to have to find the absoloute SMALLEST turbocharger if you want it to actually work and you are going to have to carefully address the fuel needs that come with turbocharging, run a colder plug and of course high octane (race gas would be safest)

I've seen videos of people with turbos on small motors and sure they make cool noises, but they're not making any positive pressure.

There were some honda motorcycles that came factory turbocharged. I would look into getting one of those turbos or maybe possibly one from a SMART car.

Here's one from a SMART which is actually probably too big

There are companies that specialize in tiny turbos for things like snowmobiles, etc. but they are not cheap.

Edit: forgot one other thing, you're going to need to supply oil to the turbo (I would suggest at least 15-20psi but not more than 40-50psi) and have a way to move that oil from the turbo back into either a container or the engine's crank case.

What does replacing a recoil have anything to do with turbos?

 

[kibble]

UNLESS!!! You're adding a turbo to the recoil, making it a type-R recoil! :arf: :arf: :arf:
