Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

In my prior post, I was looking for a honda clone engine. however, now I am thinking that I may be able to use a tecumseh h-70 that i have lying around instead. I have an older rol-air compressor. It is basicall just a small engine that has a belt drive to a pump to fill the tanks. The tecumseh will bolt right on and the pulley will line up perfectly. The only issue, is that the compressor has a idle control mechanism that makes the engine idle down when the tank is full and idle up when the tank gets low. If I use the tecumseh rather than the honda engine that was intended, I wont be able to use this. I am not super farmiliar with compressors and I dont know if this would be a very bad thing. Any help would be welcomed and appreciated.

thanks in advance
