leech~~ Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Was in FF the other day and noticed a set of Coleman small motors-made in China! Anyone buying one of these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leech~~ Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 I heard they run on White gas, have a pop-up propane lantern and you can cook hot dogs on the exhaust! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbymalone Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I'm guessing that the only thing "coleman" about those engines is the label on the side. whether that means they are total junk or just regular junk is open to speculation.I wouldn't be surprised to see briggs & stratton or something else stamped on the whatever is going on underneath the shroud.

jellio Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Can't say I've ever seen one on the water myself but for a guy on a budget it might be worth looking into..not sure being made in China is a big deal these days as most all outboards are made offshore along with about everything else.
