More Photos Are Below This Description. A few more to be added before noon Sunday (closing day). This is a 2 or perhaps 2.5hp, 2 cycle Detroit Engine Works vertical hit and miss engine, circa 1913. There are no breaks, cracks, or other obvious damage to the engine or flywheels. There are some slight abrasions on the outer edge of the pulley that is attached to the one flywheel, (the pulley appears to be brass under the paint, btw) It has strong compression upon spinning the flywheel; note that the cylinder has been painted and I believe the prior owner may have refurbished the top end as a start to an unfinished restoration. I believe the air intake valve on the back of the engine is installed upside down, on purpose, as all the air is being drawn through the mixer to pull the fuel into the cylinder – as on the original injection system (no longer installed on this engine) used crank case pressure and vacuum to suck the fuel from the fuel tank then pressurise the mixer nozzle which injected fuel as the intake port is uncovered by the piston on the way down. The engine would have originally had a dual feed oiler (one can install two single feed oilers in lieu of a double) Oil is not mixed with the fuel in these engines as the oiler feeds directly into the intake port. The other oiler feed goes to the bottom end of the connecting rod. Nonetheless it is an uncommon item, these 2 stroke verticals run like a top at low RPM. The grease cups are marked THE LUNKENHEIMER CO. The mixer is marked made by KOBAN marine? , which appears to have a threaded speed control dial. It weighs 158 lbs, stands 28″ tall, 21″ wide from the outer side of the flywheel pulley to the outside of the opposite flywheel, the wood base runners are 38 long. 4 Highland Rd Suite A.

Qty (1) Detroit Engine Works Vertical Hit Miss Antique Gas Engine. As you can see this item is in pieces, and a restoration has been started. I have no idea if it is complete or not, as I’m not real familiar with hit and miss engines. The crank does have some pitting, and the outer cylinder jug has a partially repaired crack. The crack does not go into the piston cylinder wall. This belonged to my dad, who passed away four years ago and now it is time for it to got to a new home.
