I have this engine which was brought to Ireland in 1922. It was the first engine in a Lough Neagh commercial fishing boat. The only number I have is 23101 stamped on the carburrator side below a stamped circle with the letter "M" in it. I have started to dismantle it as it is siezed but don't want to go too far as is very precious to the family. Does anyone know anything about these motors like where to get parts etc? I want to place it in a museum as a part of Lough Neagh history. So she needs to look good and original. HELP please. Stephen. |

Thanks Richard. I will do that in the morning. Too dark now - 20.30hrs. I have a really good story to go with this engine between 1922 and now. |
