Do you have a picture of this mod Mudflap? Sounds like a good one.

I'll brush the dirt off so it's visible and get a pic soon. A serpentine belt would work just as well as a timing belt.

This is Mudflap Code for "full detail"! ;-)

400 hours, that's awesome!....and from the pics, those are not easy hours. These little CG's really are something. All you have to do is throw a quart of oil at them once in a while.

No. That's more of a horizontal configuration. The size is smaller also. I would guess that it would compare with the Bull 200. Check the posts on the Bull and compare photos. They'll probably be pretty close.

It's a 169cc GY6 engine. Have the same engine on a UTV. Engine has ran flawlessly for over 2 1/2 years. Very reliable.

Thanks Mudflap.... now it makes sense.... will do this mod this winter.

Riding the Rhino to the mailbox this morning when the engine just died while at idle. Good spark, fuel, but no compression. Pulled the carb, squirted in some WD40, and blasted it with compressed air. Compression returned and it started up no problem.

Problem was a flake of carbon stuck under the intake valve. This happened once on the ATA250D so I knew what to look for. I thought the previous owner of the ATA 250 probably carboned it up by running it with the choke on or something but that was not the case with the Rhino.

If your CG engine ever suddenly looses compression, try blowing compressed air and WD40 or similar into the intake while cranking the engine. That will usually dislodge a flake of carbon on the intake valve.

Indeed. It looks like a GY6 type of motor.,,,which is also a really good motor.
