Honda GC190 Specifications
The Honda GC190 is a small (187 cc) one-cylinder air-cooled 4-cycle internal combustion gasoline engine with horizontal shaft, manufactured by
Honda Motor Company for general-purpose applications.
This engine has a one-cylinder, compact combustion chamber, OHC design minimizes valvetrain and gear noise, uni-block construction reduce fuel
consumption. The Honda GC190 engine has horizontal type carburetor with butterfly valve, recoil starter, and transistorized magneto ignition.
A 69 mm (2.71 in) cylinder bore and 50 mm (1.97 in) piston stroke provide a total engine displacement of 187 cc (11.4 cubic inches). The
compression ratio is 8.5:1. It produces 4.4 kW (6.0 HP) at 3,600 rpm and 12.1 Nm (1.23 kgm, 8.9 ft-lb) of torque at 2,500 rpm.
