what does chicken power mean?
is that a measurment of power like horsepower?

I think the manufacturer was just looking for a " catchy" name to attract attention. They also put a decal of a chicken on the gas tank. Really a good set-up if you are running on mostly level ground, & you are not too big. Mine takes me about 18mph on level pavement & I weigh 170. That is an Ohllson & Rice engine & they are of great quality!

How can I found parts and information about the chicken power motor. I own one in good shape but missing the gas tank and mainly the coil. Is it possible to use another coil from a similar motor? Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated?
