Emma Anderson Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Hi everyone im in possession of a pap 1400 paramotor and thinking of taking up the sport and im trying to find out what engine is in it i cant find any makes or engine size written on the engine anywhere is there any other way of finding out? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Welcome to PMC. 1400 should be the frame size. Could be a Top 80 engine but I think there's a fair choice of engines to be had (I don't own one) so take a pic and post it here so we can identify it.

Emma Anderson Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Great thanks for that ive attached a pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 That engine is a Top 80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cas_whitmore Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Wonder why it’s got a separate diaphragm pump ‘ it’s drawing from the bottom of the bottle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Anderson Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Cheers for that and i have no idea what that means cas_whitmore is it a problem? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cas_whitmore Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 If it’s a factory carb on your motor, can’t quite see it clearly on the phone) you don’t need it on there ‘ I can just see a filter on the bottom pipe from the bottle, so assume it had fuel at some point ‘ put a pic of the carb on here ‘ might of had a different motor fitted at some point, float bowl type carb ?

Emma Anderson Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Right I'll get a pic all this is over my head lol what cc is the engine then? Again sorry if these questions are stupid or obvious it was my grandads and hes passed away so its my responsibility now and have no clue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 The engine is 80cc (as in the name). You''re in safe hands with Cas, he knows his stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Anderson Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Ah great thought as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 The paramotor world was quite small until relatively recently so I wonder maybe one of us knew your granddad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cas_whitmore Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Ok got tighter pic of carb , he converted it to a float bowl gravity feed carb , might have problem with petrol foaming in the float bowl could make the motor run uneven and probably lean due to the vibration I would think , but he may of found a fix for that, anyway it’s a perfect user friendly set up for a newbie . cas.

Emma Anderson Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Thanks, My grandad was hughie wright from guildford....i think im going to sell it to be honest how much are they worth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cas_whitmore Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Without knowing condition and any problems with it , I guess put it out there for offers . It’d be a good base for a back up motor . cas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Anderson Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 It looks in great condition it starts first time and it runs on full revs where would i start trying to sell it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
