What Motor is this Please??

[garysgun]

I would like to know if this is a 5 or 6.5HP motor and who made it? I do not see any ID on it anywhere and also would like to know the best replacement carb to put on here. I want a Mikuni with the angled intake so it point to the rear and not at an angle. Thanks for any help.

Honda gx140 based on the recoil and blower housing

It should say right on the top of the crank case right under the tank if it is

Nah ... Right down to the silver muffler cover it's a Honda

Well at least it is a Honda. I will look under the tank on Friday. I want to ether put a new Honda carb on it or rebuild what is there. The throttle set up stinks so I was leaning towards a Mikuni. Anyone know what size would be best?

Mikuni might be a bit overkill for that stock GX140. If it's just the throttle setup, I would suggest a new one or better one. OldMiniBikes's clone throttle linkage kit works great and looks pretty trick too. I want to say it's around $8.

. Or a brand new quality Ru-xing carb if yours is just gummed up or whatever. They're only $20 and are just plain old reliable.

What is a Ru-exing carb? Never heard of it??9

It's just a new stock clone/GX carb sold by OldMiniBikes and ARC Racing. Would come stock on a BSP clone. RuiXing... I misspelled it. Good carbs... I use them almost exclusively and have put them on 6-7 bikes without issue. Supposedly, they flow 10-15% better than the SP carburetor that comes stock on a Predator.
