Development
The F-33 was intended to fill the niche previously occupied by the now out-of-production 28 hp (21 kW) Rotax 277. The F-33 uses free air cooling, dual capacitor discharge ignition and reed valve induction, with a single Bing 34mm slide or optional diaphragm type carburetor. The cylinder walls are electrochemically coated with Nikasil. Standard starting is recoil start. A belt reduction drive system, fuel injection, tuned exhaust and electric start are optional.[1][2]
The engine runs on a 50:1 pre-mix of unleaded 93 octane auto fuel and oil. Recommended time between overhauls is 1000 hours.[1][2]
The F-33 produces 22 hp (16 kW) at 5200 rpm and 28 hp (21 kW) at 6500 rpm.[1][2]
