Use the search above and search for Little Giant and Detroit Auto Marine there is a lot of info on here.
Hope this helps

I've seen the Little Major and Detroit Auto Marine engines, I think the name changed between 1907-1908. I've never seen the Major Jones, is this where the little Major came from? |

Thanks for all the help and Info. on the Major Jones Engine. Here is a pic. of the carb. that was on the engine. I do not think it has the right check valve (alum) in it. Maybe someday I will find a carb. to compare it with. I am having trouble getting the pic. up, so will keep trying. Thanks Harry |
