Answer
That Odyssey engine is almost an antique, probably worth more to someone restoring one rather than someone trying to build a go kart, they had some problems and parts are hard to find, the 340 gx on the other hand might not be as fast out of the box but there are performance parts in the karting world that would blow your mind, plus there plentiful and relatively cheap, in either case you will need to know how to work on engines, repairing and finding parts for the 2 stroke of modifying the 4 stroke, the 4 stroke will have a better more even power band and torque, where as the 2 stroke will be faster and make more HP as long as you keep the RPM up, lose that and you lose the HP and torque, as in stalled on the side of a hill, the 4 stroke will have more grunt but not the top speed so to say, if your looking at the stupid fast 2 stroke engines I'd ditch the Odyssey idea and start looking at the multi cylinder snowmobile engines like Rotax, Bombardier, Yamaha or the likes.

I have a pressure washer with a 5 Hp briggs& stratton engine. The pump is made by Water Cannon. I've searched




joe b


engine by Briggs & Stratton is model#133432. Pump is made
by Water Cannon ,model 3205. Searchall I can to locate info on this engine & pump. Water Cannon made the pump but did they ever put a 5hp gas engine with this pump. I think it's pretty old and wounder if someone swaped something . Water Cannon is primarily with Honda engines. Funny though, it runs but weak on water pressure. Help!!!



Answer
Check the regulator, it should be a rectangular box with adjustment screws all around it. You may have a store that specializes in that kind of equipment that may be able to help you figure it out exactly.
