The Zongshen ZS 168FB(E) is a 0.2 L (196 cc, 11.96 cu·in) natural aspirated single-cylinder four-stroke air-cooled internal combustion small gasoline engine with a horizontal shaft, manufactured by Zongshen Power Co. for general-purpose applications.
The ZS 168FB(E) engine has a single-cylinder, overhead valve (OHV) design, and recoil starter (168FB) or electric starter (168FBE). This engine used a carburetor fuel system, transistorized magneto ignition system, splash type lubricating system, and forced-air cooling system. The ZS 168FB(E) is equipped with a 2.6 L (0.69 US. gal. 0.57 Imp. gal.) fuel tank.
This engine produced 5.2 PS (3.8 kW; 5.1 HP) at 3,600 rpm of horsepower and 10.7 N·m (1.1 kg·m, 7.9 ft·lb) of peak torque.
