It just dawned on me that the tiller handle is backwards... I assume that it can be flipped over.

Looks suspiciously like a 'modernized' Japanese "Cruise 'n Carry".

I suggest that its made by Shindaiwa Ltd. the mfg. of the CnC. (or a copy-cat) as it has all the common elements of the original Shindaiwa design, although somewhat modernized.

Their ebay ad is interesting. I have no knowledge of these engines, but my gut tells me that they are reliable and have excellent customer support.

I was kinda thinking the same thing ..... but, it really probably shows the tiller handle being swung around for reverse motoring.

Maybe it's a puller and not a pusher?
