The engine is mechanically in very nice shape, excellent compression. The only welds I can find are on one main bearing cap, and the rocker arm (see pics). There are only a handful of these engines known, so if your looking to add a rare engine to your collection, here is your chance. The Webster magneto is very weak, doesn’t have enough spark to run the engine, so I have been running it with a battery and coil. The single bar Websters lose magnetism over the years more so than the two and three bar, so I’m sure all it needs is a good charge. You can see by looking at the pictures this engine has lots of unique features. The engine seems to run fairly decent for being such a small throttler. Feel free to ask questions!

The only flaws with the engine are, the head is welded, rocker arm is homemade, mag bracket is brazed, and the pulley side flywheel has a very slight (probably 1/8) wobble which effects nothing. This engine runs very good, and has excellent compression. Has the original belt pulley, also has the original nameplate. Crankgaurd looks to be correct as well. The 3 bar Webster magneto is nice and HOT, never fails to start the engine. Gas tank has no leaks. Muffler is not correct but works fine. Carburetor works just as it should, and doesn’t slobber gas like most do. I ran this engine for over 2 hours the other day and it never missed a beat. These Acadia engines are few and far between, especially in this small of a size. This engine is ready to hit the shows, need absolutely nothing. Feel free to ask questions!

The carburetor is not correct but works great, probably better than the correct carb, it’s an Essex which is quite a hard carburetor to find. This engine runs just as good as it looks. ONLY damage is one chipped fin on the head, hardly worth mentioning. This engine has been totally gone through by the last owner, new gas tank, new knife switch, new ignition wires, new battery box, new leather fan belt, new check valve, new nameplate, new fan, rebuilt ignitor, valve job, custom made platform on wheels to make moving the engine very easy, and I’m sure more things were done I’m not aware of. Paint job still looks great, flawless pinstriping. Absolutely no detent hammering, and the compression is very good. This engine is perfectly in time, both ignition and valve timing. Comes with a nice, hot, low tension coil that you can see in the video. This engine is ready for the shows, all you need is a 6 or 12 volt battery and some gas. Feel free to ask questions!

GREAT RUNNING 1 1/2HP JOHN DEERE HIT & MISS GAS ENGINE ON CART (WITH VIDEO) L@@K
great
Comments Off
The engine is mounted on a nice set of Fairbanks gas engine trucks, which I believe this engine has been on it most, if not all of it’s life. The engine has good compression, and starts right up every single time on the first crank after choke. The magneto on this engine is super hot, you don’t need to spin the engine super fast to get it going like most JD engines. The ONLY weld is on the bottom of the water jacket, right where most every JD engine is welded. The weld is a nice job and doesn’t leak, the water leaking you see in the video is coming from the worn out drain fitting. Both flywheels run perfectly true. It has the original flat belt pulley, the muffler however isn’t original but works just fine. Speed adjuster works just as it should, and so does the governor, this engine is ready to work, or play. If your looking for an engine in it’s work clothes that’s easy starting and will run all day, this is it. The engine is perfectly in time, runs smooth, coasts good, and is ready to hit the shows this summer and fall! Please see pictures and video, and decide for yourself. You can also pick the engine up here for no charge, we are 100 miles north of Detroit. Feel free to ask questions. VIDEO OF ENGINE RUNNING. NO RESERVE – 7 DAY LISTING!

This engine is in perfect shape mechanically, good holding compression, virtually no wear on the moving parts etc.. I have owned this engine a couple times over the years, and I always debate keeping it since it’s so nice. I didn’t do it myself because the welded one works just fine, and maybe the new owner will want to leave it alone. Good original gas tank with no leaks, and correct muffler. The thing you see by the flywheel hub is just the key gib head, both flywheels are good, with no cracks or issues, and they both run straight as an arrow.

GREAT RUNNING 1 3/4HP UNITED HIT & MISS GAS ENGINE FARM (WITH VIDEO) L@@K

This engine has been restored in recent years and done quite well. The engine has new valves, a new rocker arm pin with oil hole, a rebuilt ignitor, as well as a brand new gas tank with no leaks. Good working ball check oiler. This engine is complete, including the pulley, crankguard, and muffler. The cart this engine is on is homemade, but it is one of the nicest built carts I’ve come across yet, look at the pictures and I think you will agree. When the previous owner rebuilt the engine, instead of sleeving the engine, he knurled the piston which is another way to gain compression, and it worked quite well, the engine has good compression. The only negative on this engine is, the pulley side flywheel has about a 1/4 wobble, it’s the crankshaft that is bent, the flywheel has no issues, and the wobble hurts nothing.
