Maybe this has already been covered here, but can someone give me some feedback on the quality of the 6.5 HP OHV motors sold at Harbor Freight? Anyone had any trouble with them? Thanks.

From my experience they are great, but I've only used them for generator and water pump type applications, we have a 6.5 on our property that runs a well pump, except for changing the oil, and a spark plug every once in a while, it has been maintenance free for 3 years. There has been several HF builds lately. Check out this one from tyrslider....
