It may run as kind of smooth turning etc......I may just give this one a miss as it is really a museum piece ?

It is over 80 years of age but complete. I have a large coil that seems to fit it.

I have filled the sump with oil and turned it around over under and every which way but I think let the Old Dear rest in retirement for now.

I just posted this for Charles as He likes a 4 Stroke or two ?

I think I have worked out the uploading of pics in my case anyway.

Select what you want to attach and WAIT! before attaching. Must be my RAM or a buffer my Lappy.

Next suitcase has more engines and Cox stuff wrapped up...............they are cool!

More to come.

I am buying again so.....

Taipan Marine 1.9 unused. I seem to be concentrating on Marine engines by the way.
