I agree Bruce.
I remember being at a Victa school back in the late 80's and asking the question as to why the full crank was discontinued in preference to the 1/2 crank powertorque, and the answer given to me was they could not get the 160cc full crank to comply with noise regulations.
I prefer the old G3 carbs too, but I am showing my age with that!
And the 125cc engine used to last forever . . .
