Operating Instructions for Enya engines

Operating Instructions for Enya engines
A few months ago, I purchased these engines that Ken Enya had (for remanufacturing),
but the project for his company to do it fell through when Enya got bought up.
So, I made a deal with Kento purchase about 150 Enya engines (from poor to NIB condition).
One problem is almost all of them had no brochure/instructions with them.
I made a list and contacted Ken to get instructions on the engines on the list.
Below are of the two "Operating Instructions for Enya Engines" Ken sent to me:
page #1
page #2
Below is the "General Operating Instructions for Enya Engine"
usually on the other side of the Enya engine brochure.

Re: Operating Instructions for Enya engines
Wait, what? What company bought Enya?
I picked up a .18, but it sounds funny running. I briefly thought to hand it off for repair...sigh.

Enya's parent company (who purchased Enya around 2007) is Shioya Manufacturing Company Ltd.
That is why ENYA METAL PRODUCTS CO., LTD. old address (553 Araicho Nakanoku Tokyo)
is now:
ENYA METAL PRODUCTS CO., LTD.
16-3 CHIKUMAZAWA-HIGASHI, IRUMA-GUN, MIYOSHI-MACHI, SAITAMA-PREF.
A suburb of Tokyo in the town of Fujii City.
The Pref. in the address is a rough translation to a location outside the city of Tokyo.
Attached is a web capture of Enya's old address at Nakano and their new address at Saitama.

Re: Operating Instructions for Enya engines
SS, thanks much. I visited and found an email address. Now to find out if they offer a rebuild service. This engine is no longer listed on their site so I have only slim hopes. By the chart above, this engine is anemic at best. It only developed 50% of the rated speed using the appropriate prop. Sigh.
This one broke me of buying.any more used engines...my last four have been duds (2x Torp .19,.Fox .35, and this Enya .19). I'm half-afraid to check the previous couple of engines.

Re: Operating Instructions for Enya engines
Jim, your's is the first I have heard of an Enya .18, they exist?
Yes, a little more cautious and wiser, I've been careful about buying used engines. However, my last score with a K&B .45 Sporster new with muffler and additional bulkhead mount back but without box made up for some of the other bad purchases.
Sometimes wanting a particular engine, there is not much choice, but, a bad purchase would tend to sour a purchaser.

Re: Operating Instructions for Enya engines
I too was scratching my head as he said that he had an Enya .18?
I think it was just a slip of the finger on the keyboard and he meant to hit the "9" key?
Which Enya .19 is it?
An Enya .19-III or IV, or V, or VI?
Or a 19X engine?
Maybe you just need a new piston/sleeve if the compression is low?
You can email Ken Enya ( sales@enya-engine.com ) for parts (like I do) and see "if" he has a piston/sleeve for your Enya .19?
If he does, then don't forget to order new gaskets as well.
With the new piston/sleeve, it should be like a new engine.
The Enya is very easy to tear down. Just use a little heat on the engine and this will loosen up the screws and other parts that are tight.
I have rebuilt hundreds of Enya engines and the 4-strokes are the most tedious because of the many parts (big and small).
Your .19 have very few parts. Just mark the parts so that you can reassemble the engine back to the way it was.
I looked up the MECOA site for an Enya .19 piston/sleeve and they have "in stock" some piston/sleeve parts for an Enya .19-IV.
Hopefully yours is a .19-IV (good luck?)

Re: Operating Instructions for Enya engines
Bob Brooks aka Shtterman on Ebay has more than likely what you need. I wouldn't give Linsalato from Mecoa the time of day. Bob Brooks 954-234-0863 Control line Store. If you call him direct vs Ebay he will give you 10% off.

Re: Operating Instructions for Enya engines
Ken,
Thanks. Bob is in my contacts list.
All, yes .19. Fat fingered the smartphone keyboard while waiting for an appointment. I'll doublecheck what I have.
Thanks all. This is one I'd like to resurrect.
