have to see what happens as these get some miles on them not sure if we can even make em run richer as its just a weedeater motor

Maybe open up the jet a little more.

I still wonder if that exhaust system could be too restrictive.

rather not have it any louder then it is already that's the problem

This engine is a clone of a Honda GX31. They were used in many different types of equipment. Even small tillers. Google the GX31 for tech info the, 33cc is an OHC I believe.

Correct I read that. I was under the impression those were the specs for the Honda 33cc, which is entirely different than the GX31. I was suggesting a search for the 31cc. The 31 is a push rod engine while the 33 is OHC Im thinking. Specs may be the same/similar, just a thought.

these motors are pushrod
the old method of adjusting the valves works
wiggle pushrod till snug and 1/4 turn more

Yes they are, Its a GX31 clone. They are great little engines. The 33cc engine replaced the 31 and is a totally different design. Havent had any hands on with that one, but the little 31 is generally bullet proof.

Won't have to worry about running out if you want to take a scenic route home now. It's even aerodynamic back there
