Hello Doug,
I'm asking 1500$can. These are made by Kissan. We are Kissan's Canadian distributor. We are working directly with this manufacturer, not an exporter who would get his engines from the lowest bidder.
The 12HP Petter clone is still in the crate. I haven't opened the crate yet. I have only inspected and ran the 4HP mini-Petter, the quality and finish are good. It's obvious that Petters are a lot more popular than Lister in India thus all the efforts invested into quality to compete locally.
Here is what I know:
Bore 102mm, stroke 115mm, TRB bearings, 1500RPM, oil pump.
I know that the indians are pushing these to 1800RPM to make 60Hz generators.
No flywheel adaptor.
Manufactured Feb/06 (before the new EPA regualtion)
If you are interested, I could investigate more. What would you use it for?
Cheers,
PAT
