Yes it is an interesting carb....They claim it will turn a 30\10 Mejzlik @ 6100..

I'm hoping to run it this weekend...I have a 28\10 Mejzlik to try first.

I wouldn't run it with the gravel scoop on the carb. Bad things might happen.

Sure is pretty! Keep us up to date on how it works out. It looks good enough to have even if you weren't going to ever use it. If you would, could you pm me with basic engine info including cost? Thanks.

Such a fantastic machining job! Did they use a 5-axis machining system?

I have some weights compared against my DA 100

DA 100 with headers..........................2.922 kg....6.44 lbs.
DA 100 with everything (MTW) cans....3.684 kg....8.12 lbs.

3M 110 with headers..........................2.932 kg....6.46 lbs.
3M 110 with everything (tuned cans)...3.742kg.....8.25 lbs

I weighed both engines with headers,cans and ignitions with all hardware included.

No batteries or switches.

Powerplay...Just a quick off the top of my head cost

Mintor 3M 110................................1250
Mintor tuned canisters with headers 400

Da 100..........................................1150
MTW 75K canisters..........................250
DA 100 headers .............................120

Shipping costs would also be comparable.

Wow... I want a Mintor 3M. The DA-100 looks like it is going to take a pounding both in quality & power by the Mintor 110. If they can produce enough engines, have good reliability and service, they will have a winner on their hands.

The mixture must be prepared to 2 - 2,5% of synthetic oil of good quality.

Attention not to make to reach woodpeckers of tension over the 6 volts the ignition, if it happens, the Falkons are irremediably damaged and you/they must be replaced



On 110 Cc with Canister the use of Mejzlik two Blade 30*10 or Triblade 26*12 no. propellers is recommended. If please want to use other propellers considering that you give the dimensions is very important of the propellers it is opportune that the maximum rotation regime to the ground is indicatively included between 5800 and the 6400 turns, this to the only purpose to have the maximum yield of the propeller.



To example having a two blade from 28 inches which he turns beyond the 7000 turns is useless, the engine is exploited in wrong way and the shovels of the propeller lose too because yield.



Start procedure: Position the butterfly of the all open carburetor in position, assure him That The Plant Is Out and have the propeller turned to call fuel. If the plant is not out The Engine Can set out For Full Power and obviously be Very Dangerous. When the first fuel drops are seen get down from the venturi, stopping soon not to risk of full is necessary the engine. Put the butterfly of the carburetor in high minimum position, give tension to the plant and start the engine. When from tension to the plant to remember that if the engine does not set out within a minute, the plant one passes away automatically.



Advices: If during the phase of filling of the fuel pipes, having the propeller turned the petrol he does not arrive, it is possible that she has remained an air bubble in the pump. To remedy, lightly sending in pressure is necessary the tank in the following manners: Completely open the butterfly of the carburetor, close the pipe the tank connects to the outside environment and exercise a light pressure on the tank, or blow in the pipe used to fill the tank (in this attention case not to drink petrol) until he does not see himself go out petrol from the venturi. THIS METHOD CAN BE USED IN ALTERNATIVE TO THE ROTATION OF THE PROPELLER FOR THE FILLING OF THE FUEL PIPES.

If in the start phase, filled the engine with the fuel pipes he does not leave, it is possible that he has been Ingolfato. To remedy; Completely open the butterfly of the carburettor, assure him That The Plant Is Out, close the pipe he that from the pump he goes to the carburettor and have about ten of turns done to the propeller (as to start the engine). This serves to clean the candles stain. The engine has been Carburato to the desk, the Carburazione he goes lightly kept fat to all the regimes, if Mr. Durgan has the necessity of optimizing the Carburazione, letting him understand to do little Correzzioni both for the minimum and the pin of the maximum is necessary ( it is more sensitive normally provided as regards the engines with Walbro kind carburettors ).

OK, we need to find someone that speaks the mother language and English fluently for a better translation of the instructions. It would be an absolute travesty to damage an engine this pretty due to a translational error. Worse we might not be able to see how good it really is!
