"Awesome engine. Filled with oil and gas and it started on half a pull !! Pull start is so easy that even my twelve year old daughter can do it. The 5.5 horses is plenty for the go kart, even with an adult riding it. Great, reliable, Honda product."

"I purchased a Pressure washer 8 years ago with a Honda GX 160 engine on it,I have just changed the spark plug for the first time yesterday.I have changed the oil and cleaned the air filter.That is all the maintnence I have had to perform on this engine. It has never one time let me down.I only changed the plug because of how long it has been in the engine.It ran perfect this week.I cleaned one of my largest homes this week.It ran for almost 8 hours straight.Used NO oil,and used only 1 1/2 tank of fuel. I will not purchase any power equipment without a Honda GX engine on it ! PERIOD !!"

"The product was exactly what we need to replace the engine on our tamper. The tamper brand replacement was 0.00 more than this engine. We called everywhere and you had the best price. Super fast delivery. Thank you very much."

"We used two of these engines to replace two old ones that were used on a vibratory compaction plate, now for the cost of the motors we have two brand new compaction tools at a fraction of what the tools cost new"

"I have used the 5.5 Honda horizontal engine on several go karts in the past 5 years and have never had any problems. They start immediately and have never used oil. They are simple to maintain and are very durable. Although they may cost a few dollars more than other name brands, their performance is well worth the difference. I will continue using the Honda engine and would recommend it to anyone."
