I bought what I think is a marine engine that I have no idea on who made it. I would guess it is from the early 1910's but I really don't know. I know it was listed on Ebay before with no guesses. I can tell you it is 2 cyl, has a Bosch mag and an Air Friction carb. It also has what I think is a later added Delco Remy distributor from a late 20's, early 30's Chrysler. I am guessing they added this because the mag no longer worked? They did do a nice job adding it. It has an unique, at least to me, camshaft drive setup. The waterpump is driven from an idler gear on the crankshaft. The waterpump looks like it could be a Lobee gear pump but I am not sure. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.   |

Looks like remains of a two-feed DeLaval oiler there. I have a spare if it's needed. |
