It appears there was already a "repair" done to the part with the speed selector lever. Near the bottom of the lever it looks like a small plate has been bolted on with like 4 bolts. Also, one side of the governor (the part that spins the 2 weights) is a different shape, and has a bolt sticking out of it. Mine's not like that. Was it to try to balance it after replacing that side? I've read that after a certain year FM started using very cheap metal on these timing governor parts... is yours cast iron? Edit: Just read your description where you mention evidence of other repairs due to cracks. Looks like there is another plate/bolt "repair" I just noticed behind the cam as well.

Now that is COOL!

i have a airport minibike from 1942 with a engine just like it. still starts first kick. was used to change lightbulbs and run messages to the fuel truck :)

S w eee t.

That's super cool! I'm definitely going to have to do this one one of my more common engines!!

Love it when people save a little piece of history and give it life again in a new way.

Great job! I have been thinking about making one of these from a V8 for a while. I was thinking of putting a crank size gear on the camshaft that might do the same thing. I never thought of double lobing the cam. You've got me thinking again.

Have you tested it to see what kind of power you are generating?

Are u supply steam or compressed air?

When was it retired from revenue service?

That is sweet dude! Nice job!!

Very cool. Now just mount it on a mower, add a boiler and have a steam powered lawnmower.

Thanks. Nothing as simple as the, at least what we called therm, Pincore carburetor, buy for any power at all they were useless. Good training for elementary school kids on what a carb is & works. Before B&S thought that aluminum bores & valve seats were a good idea.

Thanks, nice work. Could you try changing the intake to just a very light spring & no lifter so it's operating like a reed valve, just for the hell of it? Also much weaker springs for this low rpm range.

That is very impressive, and runs so simple. 😊

Looks great !! I have been thinking about that for a few years, so now I will try that for sure with your ideas!

That’s very slick. Nice work !!

I have a 1920 Z and you dont dare start it with the crank. It has a nasty kickback ocassionally and I could see it breaking a hand or finger! Wish mine would start that ez!

Champion 514 (heat range 14) - same as Autolite 3076 Champion 518 (heat range 18) - hotter plug than a Champion 514 (this is the plug that I use)

Can you tell me the correct spark plug please, I have a similar engine, yours sounds good,

Hi there, we have one of these but the spark plug hole threads are stripped off, what to do?

There WAS a show in Lehigh! I couldn’t find any confirmation of it.

In the small town of walbeno Wisconsin they do the steam up days which is where people show off their vintage tractors motors etc. it was started by my grandpa and his brother and my grandpa had a trailer with a bunch of hit and miss/one lunger engines that he would showcase but the motors sadly got sold off

Years ago my grandpa gave my dad one of those WM Briggs and Stratton motor along with an other one. I got the other one running but I can’t get the WM motor to run. The point plunger doesn’t go up and there is a key way on the crank shaft thats missing the key to push the plunger up, do you have any idea if there is supposed to be that key and if so what would it be called

And look how far they’ve come. I can’t get anything that last more than 5 years without breaking down.

No lid safety switch? 😂 On a serious note, this washing machine will likely outlast any of today's washing machines which have an average lifespan of 3 - 5 years before needing to be repaired/replaced.

This is awesome. I've always wanted to see one of these work

Do you know when it was made?

Nice

Great video. I got to see this in Wichita but never had the opportunity to see it run. Ellis Railroad Museum in Ellis Kansas has an Ottoway B20 Aerotrain in operation if you're ever interested in seeing that.

Nice job

Nice engine - after watching your video I decided to add one of these to my list this year. It has enough moving parts to keep me entertained for hours. Not sure but I think I've seen your stuff at the Goessel show before.

I have a random gear reduction that kind of looks like yours. I'm going to build one of these in the summer. Thanks for the idea!!

Very nice build, i love it. Its quiet, very effective and a joy to watch it work. Well done Dude.

Nice 👍

Sounds great

Visited a friend with a similar model to this in a scab patch. It's impressive how large the Holt machines were compared to other combines in that era.

I noticed an old International Harvester stationary engine for sale locally and the ad says it runs great. What type of price is reasonable, in your opinion? thanks.

Great Job! I have a Model K that is in need of some serious repair. You give me inspiration to start that project!!

so big for so small

How many cans can you put in

Just found your channel and Subscribed. Nice work. Beautiful engine

Wow, that old engine runs great after all the work you put into it! I love the way it sounds. Thanks for posting this.

Very nice! looks and runs pretty darn good! :)

What is that not for on top of the round headed dome on that machine there's three tound headed domes one had a nut on top what's that for

Dude that is sick!!!! Love it!!!

جميل جدا تسلم ايدك

Neat project! Won't it get pretty hot running without the front cooling shroud on it though?

DUDE that's bad ass

Hell yeah dude good shit
