Honda gx390 model and serial number info

[lee]

I bought a few GX390 engines that came off of pressure washers and was wondering what the manufacture date was and the amp rating of the charging circuit on the electric start models. Here are the model and serial numbers:
GCAET-1160593
GCAKT-1280705
GCAKT-1638399
GCAKT-1638409
GCBCT-1324007
Thanks in advance to anyone able to share the info of these engines.

Lee,

Honda doesn't make this info public on the production age. As for the stator outputs it would take having the type code to narrow these which they are as some the model type had no stators for charging batteries except the electric start types. Even then you might not get the output ratings.

You can try Honda themselves as they may have ready access to this info. It just not available in the public domain.

Not to mention if they came off HONDA pressure washers, it probably won't really matter as you usually need the pressure washer frame serial to get parts lookup for the engine. just like with generators. Honda power equipment is a different animal from Honda Engines.

Tnx AJ that much info.

Now on the GCAET serial there was only 3 versions that Jacks found and neither one show an electric start version. All were recoil start so no charge coils used.
