hello phil nice engine,s here in holland you dont see much of them nice realy nice one day ill hope to find one my self keep the old engine,s alive greets from holland
Hope you find an engine, Just put out the word that you are looking for one and you may be surprised. Get on Smokstak web site, lots of people from around the world on it. Good luck. Phil
I ordered a new fuel tank from hit and miss a month ago but forgot to order the tank pick up. So waiting on that. I have installed new rings headgasket and valves, plus rebuilt the mixer. The mag has been charged so should be good to go soon. Phil
Yes it is, my first engine. Form 30+ years ago. I am waiting for some fuel line parts to show up. Hope to have a video of it running soon. THANK YOU. Phil
what kind of parts?. i placed a order for the last few parts for mine today and am just waiting for a responce with shipping cost. then its waiting for them to arrive and final finishing touches
I liked your engines and your enthusiasm directed to restoring older equipment. Watch out for that buzz saw...dangerous as you know! I see you enjoyed my little Carlisle and Finch engine with generator..engine needed a lot of TLC while dynamo came through all these years in perfect working order.
Best to serch Ebay or get on SMOKSTAK website and ask. Hit some of the engine shows. Good Luck.
