That would be a putt putt 2 cycle motor. They say these need replacingevery 2 or 3 years. No serviceable parts inside. My worked perfectly outof the box, pre-adjusted.

The lower end models are still two cycle, the one I bought is 4 stroke which is just gasoline. Which means there is a tiny bit of oil in a crank case you have to watch for no mixing of gas and oil.

You must buy the tiller first. Mine has the 4-cycle Honda engine and I love it.

Yes. I checked with Gold Eagle, the makers of STA-BIL, and I quote them: "Q: Can I use STA-BIL® Fuel Stabilizer in both 2-cycle (gas and oil mixture) and 4-cycle engines? What about the number of engine cylinders (1, 2, 4, 6 or 8 cylinders)? A: Yes, STA-BIL® Fuel Stabilizer works equally well for both 2-cycle (gas and oil mixture) and 4-cycle engines. STA-BIL® brand can be used in engines with any number of cylinders (e.g. 1, 2, 4, 6 or 8 cylinders). " I believe it does make my Honda-powered equipment start more easily.

Yes,it will work on both 2 stroke/4 stroke,it's in the directions.I would not buy another one because the battery doesnt last very long and is non replaceable .

The 4 cycle will be quieter for sure. Troy built stuff is over priced now that it is made overseas. i felt the McLane was good value for the price.

Since this is a 4 stroke engine, using 5W30 is safe for all conditions, but a thicker oil (like 10W40) may be better for really hot conditions

4: (with spark plug at top) Down: Intake, Up: Compression,[Kaboom!] Down: Power, Up: Exhaust. A 2 Cycle should go boom every time the piston goes up. With a 2 Cycle one must mix oil with the gasoline every time one fills the gas tank. Not so with a 4 cycle.

I'm very happy & satisfied with Hangkai 2 cycle boat engine. I guess It's manufactured by (Generic) a well known Company for Generators & other equipment here in USA... As far as 12 miles a hour -- it's a stretch..Depends on the weight of your boat, occupants and gear, --- In very still waters -- I would bet it will exceed 7 mph easily... How about this for thought: Engine will run on full Throttle for like 2-3 hours on 1 tank of fuel & you will be very far from home.... For the Money it's a great value vs, prices of other boat engines... Like you, I was hesitant about purchase, turned out to be a great fun & investment. Frank

I really don't know. I have always used 4 and never thought about using 2. I don't know why you could use just 2 though.

You want to use a good 2 cycle oil additive it performs a big job ! lubrication of the engine don't use a fuel treatment there are many good 2 cycle oils out there. Go to Lucas CUSTOMER SERVICE PRODUCT DISCRIPTION .

This Engine is a four stroke and they require oil in crank case before starting .NOT a two stroke that requires mixed gas. Hope this helps.

First engines should be A8-3 and or B4-4. Next use B6-4 and or C6-5 engines.
