The Kawasaki FX651V is a 0.73 l (726 cc, 44.3 cu-in) V-twin 90° air-cooled 4-stroke internal combustion small gasoline engine with vertical shaft, manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries LTd., for general-purpose applications, commercial mowers, heavy-duty industrial and construction equipment.
The Kawasaki FX651V has V-twin design with vertical PTO shaft. The motor uses overhead V-valves; spherical combustion chamber; cast-iron cylinder liners; metal engine cover with integrated cleanout ports; rotating metal grass chopper screen. The engine is equipped with electronic spark ignition and internally vented carburetor with fuel shut-off solenoid. The motor uses a high-performance lubrication system and single or multi-stage canister air filter.
The engine has an automatic compression release (ACR) system with recoil or heavy-duty shift-type starter. 13A or 20A charge coils, muffler, oil pressure switches, and shaft variations are available as an option.
Cylinder bore and piston stroke are 78.0 mm (3.07 in) and 76.0 mm (2.99 in), respectively. Compression ratio rating is 8.2:1. The FX651V engine produced 19.2 PS (14.1 KW; 18.8 HP) at 3,600 rpm or 20.8 PS (15.3 KW; 20.5 HP) at 3,600 rpm of maximum horsepower and 53.4 Nm (5.5 kg·m; 39.4 ft·lb) at 1,800 rpm or 52.9 Nm (5.4 kg·m; 39.0 ft·lb) at 2,200 rpm of torque.
