Darwin,
I bought one today & will let you know how it works out once received.
It does come with the clutch.
I was was able to work a deal for 'engine only'.
I might get another if I like it as much as my Tanaka 40...

kallsop,
I just ordered it a few hours ago & hopefully will have it within a week (NY to SC).
I'll post my observations here after a good run in.
I'm in love with my Tanaka 40cc & just can't find a replacement for less than $349 right now (I check everyday).
If this engine measures up to the Tanaka, it would be a real winner at almost 2 for 1.
I'm not sure yet where I'll be mounting this new Mitsu, either onto my MB or my stand-up scooter?

http://www.m-and-d.com/TAN-PF-4000.html 40cc tanaka $322...........great deal on the mits. Let us know how it works. I have a feeling the letters like tle just refer to what application its going on or designed for.

arwin,
The engine arrived today & I just unboxed it.
I may have enough time tomorrow to get it installed on either the MB or the Scooter?
I had pilaged the Tanaka 40 engine from the MB to get the scooter operational, but may need to swap it back.

I swapped the Tanaka 40cc back onto the MB & installed the new Mitsubishi 43cc onto the scooter.
It started on the 2nd pull & purred like a kitten.
I was able to test drive it a little this morning after soldering up a new throttle cable.
I didnt push it since it needs a proper break-in.
From what I can tell, the stock Mitsubishi exhaust is quieter than the Tanaka w/ its stock exhaust.
The Tanaka saw increased performance & is quieter just by bolting up a 80cc stock china girl std muffler.
I may add one of these two pipes I've been eyeballing.
For the scooter, I need a pipe that is more compact than the china girl std size.

The engine alone is $200.
Not sure if there are alot available since seller has to remove it & install a different engine to sell the tool part of the unit.
