Default RE: Walbro conversion for OS 160FX

In my opinion, any engine can be converted to spark ignition and gasoline. The questions is how much oil is needed, and whether or not the stock carb will be acceptable. I would use a Walbro where space and weight allow it. If the stock carb tune well a Walbro is not needed.

Liquid, I like to see a viscosity of >13cSt at 100°C. I would use a more robust oil, especially with a pipe.
