Correction : For the record.....the Honda 2 HP/4 stroke is _essentually_
air cooled [ as far as the cylinder, cylinder head, etc... ]
BUT....BUT....the exhaust is _water cooled_ and does indeed have a water
pump.

I do agree however with other comments that this engine [ depending on
hours and conditions run ] may not need any dealer service.

PS: The cooling method for the 2 HP is the same for both the " old "
version and the " new" version...ie the later has the centrifugal clutch
and twist - grip throttle.
