I'm wanting a little petrol engine maybe 3Hp. Building a battery charger. Any ideas where I can get one cheap?

If only there was an auction internet site, for the public, where one could literally find ANYTHING ...

What you really want is an old Lister CS genset. Big slow and fairly indestructible!

You got a generator to hook this up to? Might be simpler/cheaper to pick up and old genny instead? No where near as fun as bodging something together in a shed though!
