A friend asked me to try and get this engine running for him. As far as I can tell, it needs a new magneto?? but I can't order one until I know what engine this is. I was told it is a 26cc but thats it. Help please!!

It's a Quadra, It was one of the few Gas burners from the Late 70's early 80's

Yep, a quadra probably manufactured in Ontario 70's -80's . The muffler may be stock or
made by Tatone Products ..........

Hi 72:

If it is indeed a Quadra, B&B Specialties in the U.S. should be able to help you out regarding parts that you may need. I have dealt with them in the past and was always pleased with the service.

Thanks for all the replies. Can some one explain the vent on the bottom? My DL50 is sure a lot different that this!!

I think that it might be larger than a 26.
The smallest quadra I have seen is a 35.
They also made a 42 and a 50 and some other sizes too.

Quadra 35, I have the same one sitting in the garage

Ramz · 08-20-2008, 10:59 PM

it could also be a quadra 42 as the 35's and 42's look almost identical from the outside.

Ya Ramz, you are right they do, I'll have to put the 2 of mine side by side and take a look.
as far as a mag goes, stop in at your local small engine repair shop and show them the engine, I know one off a Ryobi is the same as is a lot of chainsaw engines
