Isn't it just amazing how some people are either incompetent or blatent you know what? The gas for a revolution of a 4100 is not going to be adequate for a revolution of a 5700, and don't tell me the mileage is the same with no gear change. Maybe I could prove that wiring isn't interchangeable between these engines, but I have better things to do. Anyone who wants to persue it might ask if they checked the complete range of performance with a WB Air/Fuel meter.
