Subaru 7 hp off a pressure washer...

#1
Guy wants to trade me a 7 hp subaru engine off a pressure washer...I never heard of them before. Do they work on a vintage bike? Kinda looks like a predator no? [I've never seen it in person] Thanks you...

First thing you need to do is ask the seller some questions (or provide photos) about the PTO end of the crank:
Length?
Slotted key way?
Diameter?
Internally threaded for a bolt?
You do NOT want a crank that is tapered or (externally) threaded on the end!

I have one sitting on my shelf just haven't got around to using it. I have heard they are durable and well-made but they are over-rated on their HP. The one I have I think is rated at 6.5 HP but is less than 200 cc's.

Recently picked up another arco that came with a subaru on it.
As a note there is absolutely no way too remove the fuel cap if using the oe tank on a small frame like this.
