This engine is in excellent shape mechanically. Compression is very good, and everything has very little wear. I have been over this engine and checked everything. I reset the valve timing, ignition timing, and both are now dead on. I also took the governor apart and replaced the original spring with one that is much weaker, so the engine runs nice and slow now. I also put a new return spring on the Wico EK trip mechanism. This engine has never seen the elements, you can see where they painted around the original decal which is very readable and still has good color. Only weld on the engine is on the Wico EK trip arm, and it looks like a very good weld, it will never give you any trouble. No gas or water leaks! This engine just needs a new owner and a show to take it to, NO tinkering required, starts easy and will run all day without trouble. You won’t be disappointed with this one. You can also pick it up here, 100 miles north of Detroit. Feel free to ask questions. VIDEO OF ENGINE RUNNING. The item “GREAT RUNNING CT-2 STOVER HIT & MISS GAS ENGINE FARM L@@K!
