How many gasoline/diesel engines do you own? I bet if you count them all up you'll be suprised how many you have. When I counted ours up it came to ~~fifteen~~ eighteen of the things.

For me:

The boat (1)
My old car (2)
'77 Honda 550 (3)
'78 Honda 550 (4)
Honda Rebel (5)
'02 Harley (6)
'05 Harley (7)
Pickup truck (

wife's car (9)
Backhoe/Tractor (10)
Log splitter (11)
RotoTiller (12)
Mowing tractor (13)
Small chain saw (14)
Big chain saw (15)

On Edit -
Weedeaters (16, 17)
lawn mower (18)

Surprised? No, not really. Seems to me I've counted recently, maybe even in this forum.

3 cars
2 bikes
2 lawnmowers
3 weed wackers(1 current,2 need repair)
5 small outboards(yes, I know I have a PROBLEM!!)
1 generator
1 chainsaw

Here's where the real problem is. This next list is just motors. Separated from whatever they came with.

3.5hp Briggs & Stratton w/ electric start
2.2hp Honda horizontal shaft motor from a water pump
6 hp Honda lawnmower motor(needs some governor part)
McCulloch weed wacker motor
2 unknown hp Briggs & Stratton horizontal shaft motors(I haven't looked at them too much yet. New to me)
11hp Honda rider lawn mower- actually still attached. Cutting deck is shot, tranny needs oil seals. Hoping to make it to haul a trailer around the yard.

And someone is supposed to be giving me an old powered reel self propelled lawnmower(probably a Briggs, horizontal shaft motor).

At least give us a total for those of us that can't add. Edit-I see. You have one '02 harley not six)

Found an old Cox engine, I would assume, in the leaves and stuff in the trailer behind the house from pre-teen model airplanes days. Does that count?

What about the electric chainsaw? Does that plus the two stroke make two engines in the chainsaw category?

Kong · « **Reply #11 on:** April 03, 2011, 05:44:07 AM »

Tree Fiddy,

See how that first thing I listed has a number 1 behind it, and then see how that second thing has a number 2 behind it? Well, when you get down to the 6th thing, one of the Harleys, it has the number 6 behind it. We call that "sequential". It kind of like a trend, if you follow it to the end you can figure out how many things there are in total. Work on it, you'll get it.
