Wisconsin Robin W1-185 Parts Guide + Info
Hello guys, I recently bought a scrap Wisconsin Robin / Subaru Robin motor, it had no carb, or airbox, and was missing a few things here and there such as bolts, nuts, etc.
After hours and hours of research on this engine, and trying to find any parts (hint, there aren't any). I decided to share my research here to save the future Wisconsin Robin owners time and money.
The motor I will discuss is the Wisconsin Robin W1-185, or the rebranded Subaru Robin RY-20.
They both share 75% of the same parts and are rebadges of each other.
The first issue was the nonexistent carburetor or nuts. I brought the carburetor linked below as the original carb is not made anymore.
Original Carburetor Parts Number: 227-62333-00
Original Nut Parts Number: 002-38060-00
All the nuts are the same, but I included 3 links to purchase the one that gives you the cheapest delivery fees.
Next, the airbox was missing as well, so I had to dig online for a complete kit/replacement. Linked below is the cheapest and closest OEM airbox assembly I could find.
Original AirBox Parts Number: 227-32603-00
Next, the bolts that were held in the front cover and the recoil were missing. I had to search for hours for the bolts and even found some cheaper ones.
I will also drop the bolt specifications if you wanna try to find it in a local hardware store:
1/4"-28x 1/2" (Fine Threads)
Original Bolt Parts Number: 011-00600-30
Next, the fuel tank has 2 studs at the bottom that need nuts to hold it to the block. These nuts are the same ones used for the carburetor.
Original Nut Parts Number: 002-38060-00
All the nuts are the same, but I included 3 links to purchase the one that gives you the cheapest delivery fees.
Next, thought I would include the NGK Iridium sparkplug replacement.
NGK 3419 / BR6HIX
Finally, in parts, I linked below the oil I used in my motor (10W-30)
That's all I have for parts. I will include diagrams and general engine information below.
