My '03 had a Robyn engine in it. You might watch on ebay I have seen complete engines on there. I can't guarantee the quality though.

I stuch a Harbor Freight 212 in mine. Basically a knock off a Honda motor. Cost $99. Works great. Could use a little deeper float bowl on the carb if doing a lot of wheeling. Hardest part is tweaking w/ the steering to make it work. Way more power than the 120.

Contact RecMotor.com. Don't spend any money fixing the stock engine to stock specs. You can buy a larger bolt-in engine and possibly get a credit for the stock motor from recmotor.com. They know their stuff...period.

i stuck a harbor freight special in mine as well not that hard to do just take your time. the only problem i have is that it dosnt have a lighting circuit so no head lamps ar hand warmers thought about putting the lighting coils out of the stock motor in the harbor freight predator engine but do not know if the fly wheels will interchange. cheapest and best bang for your buck if it blows up again your only out 100 bucks and some time.
