Hi all, well collected this yesterday from down Yorkshire way, first saw this engine make a good few years ago and have wanted one since that time but always thought asking amounts or engine condition was more than I was prepared to pay especially when you look at parts cost if any needed from over the big pond.

Got it running after a bit fiddle with the air intake bit, not sure how you would term this part correctly, it is oily, greasy, do not like the silver painted cylinders but after a good degrease it will be out with the paint BLACK of course.

There was a Maytag silencer ball type on exhaust, its in photo, but its too loud for me so my Marvil exhaust fits straight on as seen.
As wife says I will be a happy bunny, well that will be correct if the other engine I am hoping will come my way, so forum member are you listening but only answer via a PM as want to keep secrets at the moment.
Don
