I just purchased my first marine engines and need help identifying make and model... please forward any information to aid with restoring or a contact for parts.

This looks like a "knock-off" copy of a Waterman copper jacket engine.
The crankcase casting, the intake and exhaust ports look the same, the water pump looks the same, the primer cup and location on the cylinder is the same, the flywheel and nut on the flywheel are the same.
But the cylinder and the timer are different. But it's headless engine just like the copper jacket engine.
The water circulates by being pumped into the water jacket , swirls around the cylinder, and the goes out via an over flow pipe inside the water jacket space near the top of the cylinder.
The Waterman copper jacket engines are fairly common and certainly not rare. Many are still in use in DisPro boats today.
Is the water jacket a copper or brass cylinder?
Like your St Lawrence engine, this engine will need a buzz coil type of ignition and needs a gas/oil mix ( 25:1) .

Hello Miro...
Thank you for your reply...
I believe the water jacket is copper... what size or type carburetor will this engine require...?
Am I missing other parts and who do you recommend to contact for locating these parts...?
How does the ignition connect to this engine...?
Thank You... Tom. |
