803/948 Engine wanted
Posted: Wed Apr 15, 2026 7:25 am
Hello there
I am looking for a replacement 803cc engine, mine has blown and with 2 young children and a house to renovate I don’t have many free minutes to rebuild an engine so I need a runner - or certainly near as dammit.
I believe (and someone will tell me) that you could replace the 803 with a 948 without having to change the running gear?
Once I’ve replaced the current unit I will have a spare 803 so should anyone want it for bits/repairs I will be otherwise tripping over it.
Thanks,
Mike
