Hi I've come by a 1943 aircooled two stroke. Attached to an Eclipse radio power supply (Generator). The plates state that it is Navy avation. It has a bildge pump built into the set up. Most unusal is the oil feed pump which is attahched to the crankshaft. This injects oil into the mouth of the carby. All very well made. mostly aluminium. Any ideas on where it was used.
It is in original condition with a little surface corrosion. Most unusal spark plug. Help.

Just for info.The motor has been identified as coming from a PBY Catalina I guess you could class it as marine as it has a bilge pump attached.
