4 cycle water cooled single cylinder engine . I do know

| The three images above were sent in by Dave Otto at: dotto@micron.net Dave describes this engine as: "It is about 3 hp and almost appears to have been shop made. Not that all engines weren't built in shops but this one looks like it may have been a one off type of deal. Except for the major parts, block, water hopper, flywheels, and head, all of the parts have been machined from solid bar stock." | ||
