"We used this motor to replace an old worn out Briggs on our Log Splitter. And it has been doing a wonderful job. Alot quieter and cooler running machine and the exhaust is pointed away from the operater, instead of blow toxic fumes in a guys face all day. Excellent Product....."

"Bought this for a go-cart. It fit and worked great. Started on about the third pull. Kids have been running it all around the yard. Now it only take one or two pulls and they are off and running. My nine and eight year old boys can start the engine without any problems."

"I ordered the motor it showed up when they said. Installed it on my 22 year old log splitter that I purchased from Nothern in 1986 without modifications, started on the second pull. Have about 60 hrs on motor without any problems. Just to tell you how good Northern 's equipment is my old engine on my 16 ton splitter had approx. 4000 Hrs and it just gave up this year."

Honda Engine,
January 24, 2008
By homestead
from Templeton, Ca. Cattle Rancher
"I purchased this motor for a log splitter that had a Briggs and Stratton motor. It is close to 30 years old and is a Montgomery Ward splitter. I removed the old motor and the Honda bolted right in. The bolt holes lined up and the shaft height and length were perfect. After putting oil and fuel in, the motor started on the first pull. I split several 3-4' oak logs and it split like butter. I am very impressed with this product and recommend it to anyone looking to replace an older motor. I am so impressed that I have cement mixer that is just might get a new power source soon.
In addition, I ordered this on line and Northern Tool shipped the next day. I received the engine in less than week. I was very pleased with the service and the product."

"Just add oil and it's ready to go. The shaft is keyed and tapped and there are four bolt holes in the cover to bolt on what ever accessory your going to be using with it. I used my to replace a B&S where a small foot print was necessary."

from New Hampshire
"I have been using this engine for two years and it runs perfect. Switching between my log splitter and tiller. Works perfectly for both. Splits four foot sticks cord after cord and never even stutters. Tills a very large garden and just runs and runs without ever hesitating. Starts without fail on the first or second pull, even after sitting all winter.
Going to buy another so I don't have to keep switching."
