My father gave me a Coleman that had a sticker reading "Powered by

there is not a single Honda part in it. The engine is Briggs and

Coleman has always used Briggs & Stratton as far as I know, which of
course has led to their reputation for being noisy and unreliable.

Sounds like the sticker took a walk on the wild side somewhere prior
to purchase.
