About This Activity
Small Engine 101 | Ages 12–18 Small Engine 101 is a hands-on class designed to teach students the basics of small engine operation, maintenance, and repair. Students will learn how 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines work, proper tool use and safety, engine components, preventative maintenance, and basic troubleshooting. Throughout the class, students will work directly with engines, learning how to take them apart, inspect and identify components, diagnose common problems, and properly reassemble them. The class is designed for beginners, so no previous mechanical experience is required. Instructor – Gene Ledford: Gene is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran with a background in fleet management, diesel mechanics, and business ownership. He holds an MBA and enjoys teaching practical, real-world skills to students from elementary through high school. Gene and his wife have homeschooled their children and have been involved in the homeschool community for many years. Supplies needed: Safety glasses, closed-toe shoes and clothes that can get dirty.
