O.S. Engine® Video Update: GT55 Gas Engine

Over two years in the making, the GT55 offers 10-15% more power than any other engine in its class — plus the high-quality fit and finish that distinguishes the entire O.S. lineup. The front mounted Walbro® carb ensures instantaneous throttle control and consistent fuel flow at all times. The O.S. IG-01 electronic ignition system adjusts timing automatically and assures quick starts by compensating for wet plugs. The system also signals low-voltage conditions. The front-induction, rotary-valve crankshaft, coupled with the IG-01 ignition, delivers optimum timing at any throttle setting. Other performance advantages include right-left throttle lever mounting, a factory-installed diaphragm vent nipple, massive front/rear bearings and more. In this video Steve Kaluf gives you a guided tour of the GT55 gas engine’s features. You’ll also see the engine in action, demonstrating its effortless starts and incredible power when installed on the beautiful Great Planes Pitts M-12s. This 55cc powerhouse is the first gas engine from O.S. — and it easily lives up to the quality and performance standards that have made the O.S. brand famous worldwide!
