Vertical Engines

    These unusual engines were first available starting in 1905.  Only built in 1 and 2 1/2 hp, they were never popular.  They were not light either, the 1 hp weighing in at 540 lbs and the 2 1/2 hp coming in at 700 lbs.  The cylinder and hopper were cast in a single piece and the fuel tank was in the base.  Very few of these ignitor fired engines were built.
