Can't find anything showing the difference between these two Honda 49cc engines but lots of threads for one or the other. Just want to make sure that I get the right Honda 4 stroke engine for my spring build....Dan
No, Ron. Not every GXH50 has a low oil shutdown, they started that a couple years ago. Your links have no relevant information for the OP's question.Both have a Low Oil shutdown.

Yes, that may be so (no oil shutdown) years ago, but he is looking to buy one now, not a engine a couple of years old, at least he didn't mention buying a used engine.No, Ron.

Maybe you should stick to the 2-stroke section. I've already watched you strike out on 4-strokes.
Thanks for all the input. So, this answered my question. The QXA has a little more HP than the old 50 and is .9 inches higher which should work on a cruiser frame. Planning to use the Q-matic or 4GT with $20 upgrades. Going to try the carb on the engine with the throttle kit first.Both have a Low Oil shutdown.
