    I worked on and with these engines over 55 years ago. That is a boat engine. Meant to be mounted at an angle. These engines have splash lubricated rod bearings and tapered roller main bearings. They were also almost completely cast iron. Keep clean oil in the crankcase, a clean air filter and use clean lead free gas and these will last for years. They also cost about $80 in 1960 which was much more than a B&S.

    Magnetos often have an impulse coupling at the drive. That's what gives you the delayed "snap" just before the points get opened. It only operates at the start. Once the motor starts, the coupling has flyweights that prevent it from engaging.

    Good job, I do enjoy your videos. Neat engine. Wisconsin engines are rare in the UK -although - in the 1960’s my uncle had a Massey Harris machine for making hay bales & it was powered by a V4 air cooled Wisconsin engine, that had one speed - flat out. To start it, it had a starting handle that went onto the engine’s crankshaft but when it fired up the handle spun round on the crankshaft & everyone ran for cover until the handle worked it’s way off the shaft & flew - anywhere. I was young at the time but it was an impressive engine & exciting to start.

    When you mentioned that the carb was at an angle, I noticed that the tank fill was at the same angle. And I just couldn't remember where I had seen that slat/screen air cleaner in the past... it came to me. It was on an old Atomic 4 sailboat engine.

    While your here...... In New Zealand we have to cull the deer and Tahr goat populations as well, to reduce damage to the fragile native plant areas that prevent our mountain ranges from slips.And they also stop forest regeneration. Neither species are native to this country. Do you have a set method of how you cull? The West Coast of our South Island is having a population explosion. Large herds of both species have been spotted. The Covid-19 shut down was during the 'Roar' and hunters were not allowed to go out. (??I can't work that one out either??) The Tahr is approaching extinction in it's native country and our Department of Conservation 'D.O.C' wants to eradicate them entirely here. (??I know, can't figure that one out either??) They could turn it in to an extinction prevention programme, but that requires good management. (Facetious comment deliberate) Did you know we are the worlds biggest user of 1080 poison? Using 80% of the world supply! One carrot drop to target rats, dropped 104 tonnes of baited carrot over 3 days in an area with hugh tree and plant berry growth. The D.O.C mixes it in carrots and dyes the carrots green. Then they use helicopters to drop it in targeted, remote areas to kill the Rats. There are also pellets they can use to kill Possums. There are recently more effective and species targeting traps, now, that use a compressed air cartridge and garrotting wire, with scent as bait up a tube. It can take out up to 10 pests (rats, Stoats, Wessels and Possums) per unit. I rambled, sorry. Keep up the good work. If you want a decent day out, go to the South Island and join a Hunting Party. Hope your fit. Rugged, remote and vast high mountain ranges with nobody in sight for hundreds of miles.

I had to give up my Harley "48" Sportster last month due to Agent Orange from 2 tours in Vietnam. I couldn't feel the shifter anymore. Now I'm still running my 1949 Chushman scooter but had to switch to a new Subaru Robin engine. Couldn't get anything but Chinese points and condenser's and other parts anymore. You go thru 3 or 4 sets before you get any to work. I enjoy the "time travel" back to when engines were engines. Tom Boyte Gy.Sgt. ,USMC, retired
