Question is 800cc just too big for the two cylinder engine? Having got the 795cc Alquati engine back together and running for the first time since about 1985 my initial observation is that the engine runs so hot. I have the engine running on a wobbly table top and so far I have had it going for about 2 1/2 hours in 4 different sessions. The ignition timing is spot on and I have fitted a standard 126 carb at this stage. Put a gas analyser on it and the mixture is spot on to slightly rich. The thermostat will open fully after about 25 mins on tickover with just a couple of brief blips of the throttle. A proportion of the cooling air from the fan is lost due to the gap by the alloy sump so I am going to look into making a cover panel but I am not sure if this or fitting an oil cooler will get the temperature down to a reasonable level.
