Ernie is quite correct about the current Quadra contact but B&B stock the parts you are looking for and I doubt the factory does.B&B handle US warranty for Quadra too......The engine you have is probably a senior citizen,and not produced for some time.......

Quadra made an 80cc years ago..It has a chainsaw case with the carb on the side of the case, not the cylinder..Rear exhaust..If the plane is a 25% the 80cc would be a little large for it ...
There's a 10 foot Stearman in mexico with one on it..Flies well...

Thanx guys I appreciate the info. anyone know the fuel mix 30:1 or something else. I also need the point gap and coil gap also horsepower would be nice.
On a different note a friend of mine picked up a raven and was wondering if anyone knows the CG for this aircraft

hi dixie .. can tell you the gaps for the 35, but don't know if they were standard for all the point equipped quadras .. points normal setting .. .015(15 thou) .. can be opened to about 20 thou to increase rpm .. but engine gets harder to start the more you open them .. normal coil gap from flywheel .. .010(10 thou) ..
gas/oil mix depends mostly on the 2 cycle oil you're using .. i run about 30 to 1 on my 35 .. guess i could go higher but never worried about it too much .. btw aerrow/quadra does stock some old parts .. i've changed my crank a few times as a result of improper landings(sometimes called crashes) ..

take care .. e.
