The Taylor Vacuum Engine "REGISTRY"

for the:
TAYLOR VACUUM ENGINE
TAYLOR ENGINE COMPANY
ELGIN, ILLINOIS, U.S.A.

On engines with 3-teardrop flywheels, the date that the engine was manufactured should be stamped on the base, on the magneto side of the engine, somewhere below the crankshaft.  You will have to look through the holes in the flywheel to see it. 

On Taylor Type A engines, the serial number is stamped on the face of the non-spark side flywheel.  
On Taylor Type C engines, the serial number is stamped on a raised boss on the spark side of the water hopper.

Current engine count in this list: 132 known!
