Make Yourself a THIRD HAND

There must be a mathematic formula somewhere that solves the problem of how much effort it takes for an old fat guy to start a 3 to 6hp engine all by himself! The older one gets, the harder it is to be in two places at once to close the intake valve and use both hands to hold a starter stick or turn a crank. I doodled around figuring out a mechanical motion that would reverse the pulling action of a rope into a pushing motion of a shaft to press open an intake valve. Fortunately there is not a great deal of force required to accomplish this. I made a mock-up from tongue depressors and old fashion round head paper fasteners bought years ago when we had real office supply stores.…

A Price Guide to Antique Tools, 4th Edition

“If the intention is to accurately restore an engine then the original quality of painting should be followed.”— Peter Rooke If the decision has been made to paint an engine, the first task is to decide on the type of finish. Depending on the manufacturer of an engine, the standard of paint finish will vary, both in the quality of paint used and the preparation of the castings and parts. Otto engines had a good finish to justify their expense whereas the cheaper Amanco just had paint applied on rough castings. Lining or pinstriping was also present on some engines although in some cases this was for “show” or demonstration engines rather than normal production. If the intention is to accurately restore an engine then the original quality of painting should be…

MERIDEN STANDOUT

This large Fairbanks-Morse gas engine is housed and permanently displayed on the Meriden Threshing Showgrounds in Meriden, Kansas. The following aged write-up is typed, framed and posted with the engine: “This engine was loaned to the Meriden Antique Engine and Threshers Association by Mr. Bill Hurtig, Silverlake, Kansas. Mr. Hurtig bought this engine from a grain elevator in Reading, Kansas, several years ago. He moved this engine to Mr. Lovell Boyles’ farm near Lyndon, Kansas. The association moved the engine to the showgrounds in 1980. We completely disassembled the engine, cleaned and repaired all [the] parts. “There was no radiator with the engine so we built one similar to the original. The muffler is original and if the engine was set up permanently it would be buried in the ground. The skids…

My Little Maytag

Why am I writing about Maytag when CPM has so many fine engines here? I guess its nostalgia creeping in. One day, I was thinking about some of my early engines, and the little two-cylinder Maytag popped into my mind. Gosh, I sure had fun with it way back then. “Then” was almost 60 years ago! “One kid had a two-cylinder Maytag and I bought it for $2.”“His is a great story of success, rising from such humble beginnings.” Beginning in 1957 When I was a freshman in high school, the science class had a section on engines. Many of the guys brought in examples and I was impressed. I had fooled around with a little old Briggs & Stratton that my dad had, but had never seen any of these two-cycle models.…

“I Finally Found Heer”

About 20 years ago my good friend and president of the Marshall County Antique Power Assn., Gary Shreve, heard a rumor about an old engine sitting somewhere forgotten on a farm in Ohio. On a whim, Gary contacted the owner of the farm, and although the land owner said he was unaware of any engine sitting on the farm property, he gave us permission to go ahead and take a look. We set off on our search and drove as far as it was possible to drive deep into the property. We spent most of the day walking along the old logging trails throughout the farm, and then I saw it – a twin-cylinder, horizontal-opposed hopper-cooled engine! I became interested in old engines and antique motorcycles when I was young and I…
