Classic Meets Power: Retro 4-Stroke Gasoline Engine

Hi there, fans of engines and gearheads! Let me introduce myself: I'm the powerful 4-stroke gasoline engine attracting attention and winning people over. Imagine a screaming powerhouse that combines contemporary muscle with old vibes, like out of a classic sci-fi movie. Let's take a nostalgic trip down memory lane to meet my grandfather, the renowned 1140 Diesel Engine before I show off my horsepower.

The 1140 Diesel Engine: A Classic Powerhouse Revisited

Get your engines going, ladies and gentlemen! Introducing my ancestor, the legendary 1140 Diesel Engine, which is proudly produced in Shandong Province by the Laizhou Power Machinery Factory. This beast, lovingly referred to as the "140 Diesel Engine," boasts some impressive specs: a displacement of 3.21 litres, a piston stroke of 210 mm, a cylinder bore of 140 mm, and an incredible 12 horsepower, all of which hum away at 750 RPM.

The 1140 Diesel Engine, the first of its kind from Laizhou, China, was born in October 1953 and was a pathfinder. After several decades, this unique gem is now a highly valued display in museums dedicated to diesel engines, demonstrating its tenacious dependability and role in China's industrial revolution. Despite being phased out in the middle of the 1970s, its legacy endures since it signalled the start of China's development of internal combustion engines.

But keep your hats on because I'm here to continue that tradition in a contemporary way. I'm presenting my little gasoline engine, which was modelled after the 1140 Diesel Engine. Although I run on regular gasoline, I maintain the aesthetic appeal of my diesel predecessor, giving me a practical and stylish partner for today's enthusiasts. Let's examine my qualifications to see how I compare to my renowned grandfather!

Meet the 4-Stroke Gasoline Engine: Engineered for Excellence.

I, the tiny gasoline engine, a marvel of contemporary miniaturization, am the subject of today's focus. Made on a 1:8 scale, I weigh only 1500 grams and have a displacement of 3.6cc. I am 145mm long, 108mm wide, and 106mm high. I'm available in two stylish versions: the wooden base RTR version and the trailer RTR version.

Features So Cool, You'll Want to Show Off

Craftsmanship Galore: With a 16mm cylinder diameter, a brand-new metal piston ring, and an oil cup sitting proudly on my piston, I'm like a Swiss watch on steroids. I've updated it to a sharpened cast iron sleeve for my cylinder liner. Your engine will last longer than your favourite pair of jeans if you include a gear pump, an independent lubrication structure, and an evaporative water cooling system.

Independent Lubrication: My connecting rod and crankshaft have oil channels built into them. Once I'm humming along, the oil that runs from the connecting rod into the piston provides excellent lubrication. Smooth, huh? My pleasure factor skyrocketed with a throttle lever that allows you to manage the speed and an adjustable-speed carburettor.

Outstanding Performance: Being the Beyoncé of desktop engines, I'm not just any model. I may reduce my idle speed and increase my operating inertia using two stainless steel flywheels. I become a fierce little beast ready to rumble when you start me up!

Ready to Run: My RTR version is fully furnished, including an igniter and spark plug. You only need a battery and some fuel to get going. It is that simple.

Ready, Set, Vroom: Simple Steps to Fire Up Your Engine

  • Examine my fuel tank tubing and wiring. Unscrew the oil screw at the rear of my engine, fill my water tank with cooling water, and install a 1.5V AA battery. Screw it back in after adding 5 mm of oil.
  • I need to fill up my 95# gasoline tank. I rotate my flywheel clockwise multiple times to ensure the blended fuel enters my cylinder completely after refuelling. I also verify that the gasoline line is free of air bubbles.
  • To start me up, turn on the power switch and swiftly turn my flywheel clockwise on the right side (the power switch side).

Engine Wisdom: Pearls of Knowledge for Smooth Running

  • It may be necessary to adjust my carburettor needle if I don't start even with standard ignition and cylinder compression.
  • Adjust the carburettor's main needle by 1/4 turn after tightening it. I need to spin my flywheel a couple more times to get the ideal fuel-air mixture ratio.
  • I always stop and turn off my power switch.
