Smith-02

that i forgot that i had. it's a model AB, made from 1936-1949. 3hp@2600rpm. magneto ignition, horizontal shaft. cast iron block. 13.5ci/220cc

anyone ever play with one of these or know anything about em? other than whats typed above. i think itll make a nice project engine :1

Scott-EP

post pics. What are your plans for it?

Smith-02

dunno. i need to overhaul the magneto, it ran at one point but its full of gunky ----. either that or ill make up some sort of points for it and let it waste spark like all the small 4stroke engines do

I just get the resident "Old guy" at work to deal with people asking for Wisconsin parts. Same goes for all pre-WWII farm equipment.

i like going to antique power shows where they got those old motors just banging away for the hell of it. ask old farmers as they tend to know the most about that kind of stuff

Wisconsin engines are expensive to work on, but they are great. Lets see this bitch.

Smith-02

alright, im gonna go get pics. ill just not so ninja edit them into this. it's torn down, but the carb/magneto wont be in the pictures. i dont feel like bringing the camera to em.

Smith-02

overall. briggs 12hp carb and crank in background

lol flathead

internal shot. cam driven by the crank, magneto driven by the cam (you can see the housing on the left)

ab99-b-1, ab is the model, the rest i can't figure out or find somewhere that explains the coding.

it was FULL of water, yet is ------- rust free internally. i guess 70 year old engine gunk is one hard bitch

looks like i can do some port work to clean em up, shave a little off the head, and deck the block to bring the piston up flat. 7:1 comp now, maybe ill see 9:1
