I couldn't quite tell from the video but it looked like the governor lever was slipping on the governor shaft in crank case. love the video's please keep them coming, thanks' man cave.
This engine is a g100 Honda engine and when filling the oil, you fill the oil until it comes out of the dipstick filling hole. The dipstick that goes in is pointless. you might as well cut them as they are not a point of measurement. Thank you for another informational video Adam. I think next time you go to a stationary engine event you should invite some of your TH-cam fans to meet you as I certainly would come up from Essex to meet you mate
I have a G200 on a 2.5kVa Stephill generator! Runs as sweet as a nut, but beware of carbon detaching from the cylinder head and falling into the cylinder bore. It can be enough to stop the piston coming up and over TDC. If there's enough carbon, it can crack the piston crown, and/or bend the conrod. With an engine that size, you could pair it up with a Lucas dynamo and control box, and make a useful battery charging set. No problems with that ultra sonic cleaner - If it does its job, and works for you, that's all it needs. Ours is only a tiny thing. It looks a bit clinical, but it's only just big enough to fit one of those small carbs inside it, but it does the job. Good for cleaning video recorder heads too! Coins, glasses, granddad's false teeth, just don't mention that I was cleaning carbs this morning! 😁🤦
I found another engine channel on here, where every time he strips an engine, he cuts and brings you back at various stages. I learned nothing! Your videos are really informative and fun.
Yeah I found that when I watch other vids. They always missed out the bit I needed to see..that's why I never do that on here. It may make the videos roll on a bit, but it shows the full job in real time. I do forget to reposition camera sometimes. Many would edit that out. But I still leave it in. I need a camera man 🤣🤣
@@NorfolkMancave You are getting quite a bit better at camera angles and I am sure you will get very good in time. I love the long format. Guys who don't can fast forward on their end 🙂
You ain't wrong I do love an hour long mancave vid always better than the stuff on the TV lol but I tell you, what a nice little honda that is doesn't look very old considering it's 20+ years old 👍
Great little motor and just need a little adjustment and when do these become vintage I reckon another ten years and you see them at rally engines but if there was 40 years some would turn there nose up to me if it runs and I think there will be lots seen in 10 years time. But first pull says lots.
Hi Adam, why you starting to use bad language in your vids, please don't sink to to the fashionable F this and F that style of comms, great vid otherwise and you can always rely on a honda engine

lovely job .
Thank you! Cheers!
They spec 10w30 for em, 40 probly does the job.
Id be skerd to use the flame method on a filled fuel tank :0
Yeah flame around rank is not the best idea. 😒. She will be a nice runner in the end.
beside the wd 40 what is the other penetrating fluid you use
Hi ya. I use WD, Rocket and spray 3 in 1. Thats the stuff i get on with. Duckoyl is also brilliant stuff.
@@NorfolkMancave thanks for the prompt reply never heard of rocket ive just ordered a couple of tins
Not at all surprised. It’s a Honda.
Always great engines.

What chance had Villiers got against the japs
