I'd like to have a record of anything different from the Honda GXV160 that most of the chondas are copied from, Rob. I'm not sure there is much that is visibly different except the control linkages for the governor and choke - which you have already posted. As was reported in another thread, there are detail differences in some chonda flywheels and crankshafts which keep them from being interchangeable, but it is a whole study in itself to line the parts up beside Honda ones to show that. If you could show the ignition module mounting, we can see whether it follows the GXV120 design, or the one used on both GXV140 and GXV160. If you have the carburetor off, you could show the air cleaner housing, the carburetor insulator, and a general view of the carburetor.
Thanks for the offer.
Post edit: Note that this Sanli chonda is 140 cc displacement and is quite an accurate copy of the Honda GXV140. The plastic camshaft is the same as the GXV140 one and may be interchangeable with it. Note also that unlike Honda's design practice with the GXV120 versus the GX120, and the GXV160 versus the GX160, Honda designed the GXV140 separately from the GX140 and they do not even share the same stroke. Do not expect GX140 parts to fit a GXV140: some will, and some won't.
