What the number itself says

Reading 9HALX.197A4V left to right: 9 is the model-year letter for 2009, HAL is the three-character code the EPA assigned to Pacific Rim International West as certificate holder, X marks an off-road certification, .197 is the displacement in litres, so 197cc and A4V is Pacific Rim International West's own sequence for that year. Nothing in the number names the factory — that comes from the certificate itself.

The engine, as described on the certificate

The certificate describes a four-stroke, single-cylinder engine with 2 valves per cylinder fed by carburettor, run by an ignition control module (CDI-type ignition). There is a catalytic converter in the exhaust, recorded as "oxidizing catalyst only". The head carries a pulse secondary-air (PAIR) valve.

Rated power on the record is 10 kW (about 13 hp) at 7,500 rpm, driving through a 4-speed manual gearbox.

Filing history and where it was sold

Pacific Rim International West filed one certificate under this family, for model year 2009, sold as 50-state, California included.

The vehicle itself is recorded as built by Yongkang Haili Industrial Co.Ltd. in China, while the engine came from Chongqing Zongshen. Chassis parts and engine parts therefore have different origins.

Certified emission levels: CO 6.9, HC 0.36, HC+NOx 0.8 g/km.

What this configuration means when you shop for parts

Pacific Rim International West certified this engine with a carburettor, so the fuel-side wear items are the carburettor, its jets and float needle, the intake boot and the choke. The record gives no carburettor part number — measure the intake bore and the mounting on this engine before ordering.

Pacific Rim International West's 2009 this engine drives a manual gearbox, so clutch plates, chain and sprockets wear first — count the sprocket teeth on the HL200AE before buying a chain.

The PAIR valve Pacific Rim International West lists on this engine is an emissions part; its hoses perish and are the usual cause of popping on the overrun.

The exhaust on Pacific Rim International West's 9HALX.197A4V carries a catalyst, so a replacement silencer without one changes what this engine was certified with.
