Hey there you guys who have a hanker to build a large dredge, if they're still legal somewhere, here's a link to a an engine that should be able to run a large pump and compressor without to much trouble. And the price ain't that bad either.

wow
what a compact motor, 20x19x14 and 155lbs

Yup and at 15 to 20 HP it should be reasonably capable. The one thing I wish they would have said was the manuf. so maybe you could get the specs. on it.

Hi
Gramps
was hoping that engine was producing more would have dropped the load on my precision VW well thanks again for another Great website to look at keep them coming

The HP rating in the specs. is a government rating and they use a different sys. of measurement. Coleman said that with their dyno they put out 15 to 20 HP. These engines have been warehoused since the mid to late 90's and are brand new, they have been marked down to the same price as the used ones.

I get E-mails from Coleman's and thought they might be usefull to someone out there in the D.E.F. crowd.
