well here are your choices<br /><br />suber charg it (but risk blowing the engine)<br /><br />or run it without oil (butit will shportly sieze and die.<br /><br />your best bet is to buy a new motor with more power, its reallllly hard to boost small engines up.

I dont think it is worth the investment in time or money for that size motor.<br /> They say if you raise the compression one point<br /> say from 8 to 1 to 9 to 1 you raise the hp<br />10% thats only.35hp on your motor.<br /> Maybe you can find a motor of similar demensions<br /> that puts out more.

I thought that there may be a simple thing as changing the carb to a bigger one or something on that order. Thanks!<br /><br />
