Has anybody used one of these on a splitter ? If so what kind of mt are you using for the pump ? Does HF mimic a Honda mount ?
No gas tank? Strange. What do they think a buyer would do...IV pole the gas into it? I've seen an awful lotta good reviews and things about the Predator line of motors.Yes the predators.I also seen they have an 18 Hp I think now also,but no gas tank.
If you are speaking of the horizontal PREDATOR motors, then yes the Honda mount is a direct fit for them. Seems like the only problems I've had with the motors is gas caps and loose carb bolts, other than that...I've had excellent luck with them.
How many hours do you have on it so far? My Honda 13 hp has thousands of hours and still fine?Tough to beat for 1/3 the price and nearly complete interchangeability with Honda GX line. Good clone.

Pretty standard for the 2 cylinder OPE engines to come without a tank. HF at least includes a muffler.... I thought they were selling a 22hp v twin?No gas tank? Strange.

Yeah the 18 HP would be great for a 28 gpm pump but would have to rig up a gas tank.
Why not think about turning that exhaust straight up and extending it above head height gets the noise away a bit and nothing blowing on you or unit that way. Might look strange, just a fleeting thought.
yeah!! aint that amazing?? I mean,,they were used on nearly EVERY brand of rototiller and snowblower,,for over thirty years,,and just kept going like the energizer bunny!! but then,,i also know a few,,that could destroy a Sherman tank in 1/2 hr.........................Wow, I have a POS Tecumsch engine on a tiller also. After 21 years it still starts on the second pull. If it goes I just might look at a Predator engine.
