They are really cool......and far coolerish if they run.

Mine has a cracked top exhaust elbow and not all shiny bright.

All it needed was a spark plug. Mine is external coil.

I know of 4 others owned by members of this site, Peter Hunn made a video a couple of months ago of one pushing a dingy owned by one of our members, I think it's going to end up on youtube.

You know me Bruce, I'm a talker not a typist, you can exchange a lot more information in a 20 minute conversation than you can in a 20 minute email exchange, & you'll know if the guy understood you.

How are you connecting that V plug to your HT lead?

The Clarke Troller is one of my favorite outboards.

A bizarre design, no gears, no flywheel, water cooled without a water pump and water jackets, a spark plug from a model aircraft engine and a prop with adjustable pitch.

Maybe slightly overpriced but it seems to be all there...
