The son of the original owner knew little about the engine, other than to say that it came from a cattle operation the family once owned in Capay, California. Other than hosing off bird droppings and mud-dauber wasp nests, using a degreasing agent, I have not altered the engine from the condition in which I received it. I did liberally spray WD-40 into the crank case to drive out moisture that I feared might be there after cleaning off the exterior. Not in running condition. I think it is pretty complete, but not knowing much about these engines, I must sell AS IS. Please view photos carefully. Contact me with questions and I’ll answer as best I can. The piston and gearing all moves easily. The push rod and valves all seem to work properly as far as I can tell. I do not see any cracks in the cast iron, though I must admit I have not cleaned all the years’ accumulation of muck off the engine. I believe the most likely place for cracks is the water hopper, and it shows no cracks or repairs. POSTED 9/2: I noticed while hand-cranking the engine that there is a lot of slop at the main bearing on the crankshaft. I have posted two videos of the 1923 engine on Photobucket, but I have had no luck figuring out how the heck to link to them from this page. The item number is 291553394577.
