This was my first engine same colour too in 1994 It was an ok engine didn’t like the cold if you were using it in the winter an electric starter was much needed , likes castrol straight to 5%, for a 40 size it has most power you will get out of a 40 pulls like a train, my engine was working ok flew it for 3 years on original carb, in fact I have another one here the same brand new it’s going into another model in the next 3 weeks

Thanks John. It looks like an older black composite Irvine .40 carb has been installed as well.@@johnchadwick3237
