could it power a go kart

[antiquengine]

@MrLangley59 it could but not much power, I think these were only rated a little over a half horsepower.

[graffie]

what's the engine displacement?

[antiquengine]

@graffie it should be about 150cc

[SuperKONR]

Is this an offshoot of the maytag? Looks very similar.

nice little engine. i just bought two "parts" engines hopefully enough to make at least 1 complete runner

Where is the gas tank?

[antiquengine]

The oil and the gas are both located in the base in separate chambers. The gas is pumped up to the carb and excess is drained back to the tank.

That engine's a beauty, and it runs so smooth! Did you have to rebuild it, or just clean it up?

[antiquengine]

got this one this way, previously restored.

cool

[woofernl]

would it be possible to make a kickstarte by your self ? i got a mower i got to pull it :\

[antiquengine]

sounds like a fair amount of work. all the early engines were cast iron and had a substantial mounting point for the pedal, most of todays engines are aluminium and lack an area strong enough to support the pedal assembly.

[douro20]

I thought about doing it one time, using the integrated flywheel clutch found on most Briggs & Stratton engines. I personally don't think it would be much work to do so.

[douro20]

They did do it on Tecumseh Enduros for a while.

[KFCHambone]

it's so quite for the time. wow

[andruha1123]

cool the valves of the engine are outside, never seen that before

[carmasterextreme]

actually those that you are seeing are the rocker arms the valves are actually inside

[ews66]

cool kick start

[bill88thesledman]

haha, wonder if it would work in a snowmobile

[MAZDAMAN666]

i <3 it

[douro20]

That is the most unusual Sattley I've ever seen. I'd imagine they tell you to oil the rockers before every run.

[antiquengine]

And once again before the washer hits the spin cycle!
