Kawasaki FX751V

Kawasaki FX751VThe Kawasaki FX751V is a 0.85 l (852 cc, 51.99 cu-in) V-twin 90° air-cooled 4-stroke internal combustion small gasoline engine with vertical shaft, manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries LTd., for general-purpose applications, commercial mowers, heavy-duty industrial and construction equipment.

The Kawasaki FX751V has V-twin design with vertical PTO shaft. The motor uses overhead V-valves; spherical combustion chamber; cast-iron cylinder liners; metal engine cover with integrated cleanout ports; rotating metal grass chopper screen. The engine is equipped with electronic spark ignition and twin-barrel, internally vented carburetor with fuel shut-off solenoid. The motor uses a high-performance lubrication system with high-efficiency oil cooler and double or multi-stage canister air filter.

The engine has an automatic compression release (ACR) system with recoil or heavy-duty shift-type starter. 13A or 20A charge coils, various oil drains, oil pressure switches, and shaft variations are available as an option.

An 84.5 mm (3.33 in) cylinder bore and 76.0 mm (2.99 in) piston stroke give the motor a total of 852 cc (51.99 cu-in) of displacement. Compression ratio rating is 8.2:1. The FX751V engine produced 23.8 PS (17.5 kW; 23.4 HP) at 3,600 rpm or 24.9 PS (18.3 kW; 24.5 HP) at 3,600 rpm of maximum horsepower and 62.0 Nm (6.3 kg·m; 45.8 ft·lb) at 2,000 rpm or 60.2 Nm (6.1 kg·m; 44.4 ft·lb) at 2,200 rpm of torque.

  1. I have a 24.5 or 25 hp Kawasaki motor for my Toro Z 3000 series. Is it ok long term to use 10 % ethanol long term in the motor if I use an additive that is good to keep the fuel from causing problems when storing the gas in the lawnmower over winter, or is this a bad idea? Thanks
