•”Spiny-lok” cast iron cylinder walls
Rigid construction and added durability provide long engine life.
•Solid-state ignition
Provides reliable starting every time.
•Automatic, electronic choke
Automatically assures quick and reliable starting everytime.
•Full pressure lubrication system
Superior lubrication to all vital bearings means better performance, less maintenance and
significantly longer engine life.
