I have thoroughly looked the engine over and there are NO cracks, breaks or welds. Very unworn, zero slop in the detent, cam gear has no back and forth movement, no endplay in the crank at all… Flywheels run perfectly true. Intake valve has some crud behind it, just needs to be popped a few times or maybe lapped in, easy to take the valve chest off and do that. The freeze plugs are both out, just needs new ones installed before you put water in the hopper. NO water jacket cracks. Original tin crank guard. Original nameplate, battery box, and nice large correct pulley. Could use a shim added to the rod cap, the engine would coast longer, its a little tight how they have it. This was taken out of a barn down south in the 1970′s I believe, and I’m quite sure this engine hadn’t ran in 50+ years until today. If your in the market for a large Monitor, this is as nice of an untouched engine as you could ask for. Original skids and gas tank, which doesn’t leak! Feel free to ask questions. I can also deliver this engine to Portland, IN in May or August as well as Coolspring, PA show in June, or Baraboo, WI swap meet coming up soon. You can also pick the engine up here for no charge, we are 100 miles north of Detroit. The item “GREAT RUNNING 5HP MONITOR HIT & MISS GAS ENGINE BARN FRESH L@@K!
