Selling a 6 1/2 HP Acadia, restored but haven`t ran it yet. Can see no reason why it will not run. Cylinder is great shape, no cracks or leaks, water jacket filled with antifreeze. No scores on cylinder. Bearings are tight. Comes with shaft, blades, stuffing box and coil. Selling for $1500 Canadian funds. Located in Newfoundland, Canada. |

It will not run, until the water pump plunger/ignition breaker is connected to the crank. |

It has been disconnected to prevent the pump from discharging the antifreeze when the flywheel is turned. Every now and then I turn the flywheel to help lubricate the cylinder. Good eye! |

You may also notice the tripper spring is missing, but I have it. Two actually, NOS. |

Now that it's been explained it seems like a good idea. |
