[QUOTE="Andrew96, post: 2181400, member: 21552"] Though I don't know anything about this mill....I use 80 - 100 kilometers per hour of run time on various gas engines to give others a 'feel' for how much use they have had when compared to cars. This 1800hr engine I'd say would be about the same as 144,000km, or 90,000 miles on a hard worked small engine (think baby 4 cylinder car). Being an air cooled engine, it won't last as long as the car though. On air cooled aircraft engines...1800 hrs is all you'll get out of a well cared for top end...maybe the crank too....and they don't run at as high an rpm! As Rob said..not really 'low hours' IMO. 80% - 90% of it's service life is done on it's first rebuild. [/QUOTE]
