  • Made in Thailand
It appears to be a well built engine however it's not a Japanese Honda as I had assumed. The one delivered to me has a "Assembled in Thailand" tag hanging off of it. My assumption is that it should run fine just a tad disappointed

Engine might have been good, just would not work for our need, the output shaft was wrong size. The return process was fine, but costly
