Bonjour,
Doug,I envy your collection because, unlike you, I was only able to buy Chinese engines (including this one).
France must undoubtedly be too small a distant market for manufacturers of this type of product to be interested in it and no one builds them locally.
Gil, could you please explain me what is a 4 or a 6 cycle engine as I don't see differences between my engines when they hit or miss ? I know what a 2 or a 4 stroke engine is, difference between stroke an cycle ? Thank you in advance !
Hi Raphael, a stroke and a cycle are the same thing.
A 6 cycle has 2 extra strokes due to a cam gear 3X the size of the crank gear (vs 2X crank gear).
The extra 2 strokes just move air in and out and can help with cooling.
