Zenoah Prop Stud Dimensions?
Hi all.
I have two Robin 26 gas engines(made bu Fuji Industries in Japan) kicking around here that I'm seriously thinking of converting over to gas/glow instead of using the conventional magneto method.My main reason for doing this is because the magneto is outer case mounted and not physically located on the engine.It is just too much hassle to try and mount the magneto and the flywheel is quite heavy.
These engines are very similiar to the Zenoah 23 or 26 in that they also have a short crank stub sticking out of the front and back of the crankcase.The Zenoah's use a double end threaded screw in prop stud to center and mount the prop hub onto these engines.I was wondering if the prop stud,prop hub would fit onto the Robin 26 engine and then I could use also the gas/glow plug adapter to run these on gas/glow?I'm pretty sure the bolt that holds on the Robin 26's flywheel is a 6mm thread so I was wondering what the thread dimensions are for the Zenoah prop stud and whether this would work for me or not.I can't find dimensions for it at Horizon's web site unfortunately.The G23 and G26 use the same prop stud part number which is ZEN2360(ZEN115243281).
