TruFuel FOR Honda GX 35 Break-In Period?

[Sperlonga]

On the dyno the EHO didn't make more power than the GX35 it never will.

That power measurement on the Honda was taken to SAE J1349 standard, the RS was not.

I pulled the specs from the factory service manual.Honda rates the GX35 at 1.9 Nm. The EHO is also short on displacement.It is 33.5 not 35cc where the Honda is actually 35.8cc

The Honda CR is 8.3:1 measured.

RS has a long history of misleading advertising, such as having a cast iron liner, there is no such thing in the EHO 25 nor 35.Its not a bad engine, just not better than the Honda.

Thanks, Old BOB, you are really making me feel good about my Honda engine choice.

"if its on the internet, it must be true"

Dynamometer testing is the great equalizer.It does account for all the variables.You are welcome to do your own testing instead of parroting what was "read" on the net.

Again, I know what you're saying, but you are on the internet too, should we not take your word?There are pics and documentation on THIS site, unless they're all lying it's pretty decent info.Everything on the internet is heresay, including your statements, I don't know you, I don't know them, just ratios of stories says the EHO is all around better.

All the pics,dyno charts etc were on my old website, plenty of people have been to my facility and seen what I've done.
I'm not saying anyone is lying but not comparing apples to apples. Prior to 2007 Honda tested their M4 range engines the same way RS does. Since 2007 Honda has used the SAE J1349 standard which yields a "net" hp number, before that the testing yielded a "gross" hp number.

If using factory documentation you need to look at Honda.
The following manual was printed prior to adopting J1349
Look at page 18

No one is trying to make you feel bad about your engine choice. Really, either engine is a great choice - far far better than any chinagirl.

Even the small Huasheng based on the old Honda GX31 (sometimes sold as Titan XC35) is a far better built engine than any chinagirl.

Yes, I know. I have learned a lot in these discussions. I appreciate the nuggets of information throughout this site.
