RARE RUNNING 2 1/2HP KEWANEE HIT & MISS GAS ENGINE WATER PUMP (WITH VIDEO) L@@K

These engines were used to pump water from shallow wells, to storage tanks for home, farm or business. This engine was found in a Michigan barn in 1967 or 68 by another collector (who I got it from), and he NEVER ran it once, so theres a good chance this engine hadn’t run since the 1950′s. All I have done is trip the old paint job off, and run some new gas lines, and clean out the fuel pump. There are two welds on the engine, one is on the pump itself, and one is on the water jacket of the engine (see pictures). The only other minor issue, is a small chip out of the muffler, which isn’t original, but works fine. Engine has good compression, and everything works as it should. I have never attempted to pump water with it, but I’m sure it doesn’t need much if anything to start pumping water. These Kewanee engines are few and far between, and they are quite early I would guess just before 1910. Lots of monkey motion on this engine, that is really nice to watch! There is no gear growling on any of the gears, or bad noises of any kind, with the exception of a little wrist pin clunk which most engines have. Has the original cast brass nameplate which a lot of these engines are missing. This engine needs nothing but a new home, and some shows to display it at. If you’re looking to upgrade your collection with a desirable engine, here is your chance. Feel free to ask questions. VIDEO OF ENGINE RUNNING. 10 DAY LISTING – NO RESERVE!!!

RARE VINTAGE ATOMOTOR HIT MISS STYLE COIL ELECTRIC MOTOR 4 STEAM ENGINE TOYS ETC

During October, a swell collection of Vintage, hard to find Toy Motors have been selected for you.. Including this very Rare 1949 all-red ATOMOTOR power unit! We first discovered the ATOMOTOR 9 years ago and have been collecting them ever since. Motor’s original design placed it on top of a plastic D Cell battery box, where the. 4 metal clips underneath base would make contact and run very nicely. During the past 65+ years, boxes tended to warp outwards due to battery pressures, making electrical contact sometimes iffy.. Plus, it was difficult to power Steam Engine machine shop tools and other Fun Toys with motor so high up and not on ground level. The Good News is ATOMOTOR can be powered two different ways… Using the box or simply attaching a pair of. Battery wires directly to Motor’s base underneath… By-passing box altogether as with our Custom Built Power Plant here. The resulta smooth running, very realistic prototype looking Hit & Miss engineeven has that Pop! Are you a Mechanical Engineerhave interest in the Educational Scienceshome schooler or involved with Scouting? ATOMOTORS to Mechanical Engineering Universities for teaching purposes and will include this Torque Curve measurement FYI. Or, if you think that kind of Math is hard as we do, then just have FUN operating and experimenting with your ATOMOTOR! ATOMOTOR Features: Variable RPM Speed Controller3-6 Volt Ops. Diecast Running GearPTO PulleyRealistic Hit & Miss sounds. So, how does it work… The electric power Coil is energized once every revolution when contact is made by the Timing Cam on the main PTO shaft… These two brushes close together, providing instant power to Coil, thus pulling down the Die Cast Flywheel’s Connecting Rod. During all our years collecting the ATOMOTOR, we’ve only found one that still had its original 12 page Ops. While we can’t give this one up, we are including a complete printed copy, plus emailed enlargements for Full Screen viewing. We did extensive research into the History of this little known ATOMOTOR company, who started just after WW II in. Pasadena, California and are including copy of very informative correspondence we received from their local Library Historian. All in all, you’re getting a very Nice and Complete package of this Rare working ATOMOTOR survivor. Ready to see your motor in operation… Your ATOMOTOR has been lubed, carefully tested ensuring perfect operation… All will be packed in an. Oversized Box for Extra Protection… F A S T & S P E E D Y.

RARE 1902 STOVER 4 HP ANTIQUE GAS ENGINE, 1st year Stover engine with square push rod. Only 2 documented square push rod horizontal engines exist, with this example the most complete original. Original square headed bolts on cylinder base, back water jacket plate, timing gear bracket. Nicely embossed Stover on cylinder. I carefully cleaned all the parts of this engine and gave it a stove black finish. No serial numbers were discovered except a #2 was stamped on the rod, wrist pin brass bearings and the connecting rod. There was no evidence where a pinhole or screw hole would have held a name plate. Flywheel, base and cylinder are perfect with no cracks, breaks or welds. Cylinder head has 2 repaired freeze cracks welded and smoothed down. Timing gear has been repaired but is perfectly done and runs true. A period riveted blacksmith repair was done on the governor latch out arm and looks good. A later Stover ignitor is on engine, the original ignitor block will go with engine. The original was converted to spark plug so it will need some work. Cylinder oiler and compression release are original to engine. Original beaded pipe fittings on fuel lines, exhaust pipe and beaded elbow original to engine. Engine sits on black walnut runners, I last ran this engine 3 years ago at a show and it started and ran well except for a small water leak on the bottom of head gasket. A sealer would probably fix it but that is up the the new owner. This engine has been in the collection since the 1970′s and has never been offered for sale. Collectors have expressed interest in purchasing it over the years so now is your chance to acquire one of the most desirable of Stover engines. A very nice engine with historical qualities. The reserve price will not be revealed but is in line with such a rare engine. Flywheels 36 1/2 dia. 2 1/2″ across face, 5″ bore 10 stroke.

Fairmont engines are very common and almost every collector has one or has had one. Two cylinder fairmonts are extremely rare and this is the first one i have ever owned or had the chance to own. It is rated at 10-15hp. It is missing the carburetor, but other than that it is totally complete and in really nice, unmolested condition. It is not stuck, but stiff from sitting. I don’t think it need much to make it run other than a carb. As you can tell by the grease and original paint, this was never left out in the elements. If you collect rare engines, or fairmonts, here is your chance. Feel free to ask questions. 5 day listing, no reserve. I can deliver this engine to portland, in or coolspring, pa events this year for $40. I would guess $125-$175.The item “RARE TWO CYLINDER 10HP OPPOSED FAIRMONT RAILCAR ENGINE HIT & MISS FARM L@@K” is in sale since Tuesday, April 21, 2015.
