Here is picture 1 of the carb. My photos take up memory so next message will be another picture.

I would still get the spring from wall fish because im new to small engines and this one, but I will put photos on here today, right now I have to shovel snow. After you see the pictures, you can give me what you think it's worth. I'm most likely going purchase parts for the engines I'm buying and have bought. I'm trying to buy some unused engines and have a small collection for parts in the future for when they are no longer available.

Ok. Give an address and I will mail it out to you.

I have the complete carb with filter attached which came from my broken tiny tiger minus the diaphragm which I will be using for the engines I didn't break.

I didn't win the helicopter. Last time I bid on it, I was the only bidder, and I had asked before the end of the auction what the reserve price was because I was the only bidder and wanted to see if it was affordable. He wouldn't tell me, and I didn't like it so I raised the bid until I found out, then lowered it 25 dollars, which I shouldn't have, I just thought what he did was stupid. This time I was the highest bidder again, but someone must have contacted him because there was a fifth bidder. I was still the highest but he won't sell it to me, and that's ok, I have a couple of engines to work on. I also found out the later engines take a larger spark plug, which I didn't know until I tried to insert an older extra spark plug I have into a later engine. Learning something new every day.

Photo of my carb, doesn't look like anything is cut, maybe I'm missing something. I can only add one photo.

Thank you for the info. I guess the carb will remain a mystery has to who made it, but I will need to take it apart to replace the o ring which is brittle. Then I will clean it and see If it runs.

Yes, I have a bid on it, and not sure if I will win, but if I do, I will post pictures of it.

Hello. Does that helicopter look like it can be serviced? It has some rust and the seller said the engine is gummed. Can the engine be cleaned? Sorry about my stupid questions, it's a learning process for me,mike right now I'm cleaning the ohlsson rice military engine.

Some more pictures. The carb fuel pump doesn't move, but I want to clean off dirt before I take that apart or the points.

Hello again. This is the second military engine I just bought recently, hoping it wasn't a mistake. I found dried dirt or dust, outside and inside the engine cover. Attached are pictures. Any recommendations on cleaning it? Does it look salvageable? The recoil was stuck, but working better after I lubricsted it, but not sure how to tackle the dirt.

Here are some pictures of the top of the spark plug hole, and the top of the piston

Nothing, it was removed. So then I would need a glow plug, fuel, propellor or something to turn the shaft, and it may, or may not run. There is an o ring under the carb that looks like it needs replacing. I'm not sure I have it, but I have a cal-hawk 407-pc o ring set and I might have one that fits. Does the carb look identifiable to you in the picture?

I just purchased this engine, missing recoil, flywheel, tank, and other parts, has another carb for rc control, a fuel port( I think ), and different shafts front and rear, I'm guessing for an airplane, but I would like an opinion on what it needs to attempt to start it. It turns but I dont have any lubricating oil yet so I don't want to turn it till its lubricated first. I will start with these photos, and will be adding photos of the military and red 1hp engines I have.

Thank you again, you o&r guys are very knowledgeable on these engines, and I don't know how you find out about the specific model and type numbers, I can find very little, other than pictures and YouTube. The rc toy is a helicopter, and the engine can easily be swapped with a gas engine if needed. If I win the auction, that will be the first engine I take apart, and this time carefully. One more question: is there any aftermarket electronic starting and ignition circuits for the 1hp to reduce weight?

Hello again. I recently saw a 1hp engine converted by a company to a glow engine. For an rc toy. The engine is gummed up as written by the seller, and I was interested in this one to tinker with, and post on this thread to find out if it could be repaired. From the outside, all it looks like was that a glow plug is screwed into the spark plug socket. If any modification to the inside, i guess i will need some help in identifying any changes. If I win the bid, I will post pictures and ask for help in the disassembly of it if it is possible. I will start slow with cleaning it. My order question after seeing the tiny tiger rebuilt, was how do you clean these engines and make them look new?

Thank you both for the info. I couldnt find any info on the 276 either except someone had it connected to a boat that was sold. I missed an auction not too long ago for one of those orline bike kits, I didn't wan to spend as much as the winner. I decided to try a friction wheel that you could connect any small engine to, and swap out quickly if the engine went bad. I want to use an ohlsson rice engine first. I also like the bike machine, and will try it around my home to see how well it runs. I like to ride the bike without the engine, but sometimes I may need to make some time, and I can't ride fast like I used to. I will put some pictures up of the ohlsson rice engines I have.

Dumb, I didn't even think of the points, thank you.

I just purchased another Ohlsson rice 1hp type 276 which doesn't have the gear reduction. I'm looking to use it for a bicycle friction drive unit, just wanted to get some past experiences of shunting a magneto motor to shut down the motor. Can the magnetos handle that, because I will be shorting out a coil. If I can't get the gears, I may use it to replace the old motor I have for tiny tiger generator. I have a k&s rear friction motor, called the bike machine. A small Mitsubishi engine 1.5hp t15 m-2c, that I cant find any I formation about on the internet about it, with a larger float carb looks like its from the 70's, when safety wasn't an issue.. It has a stop button attached to the engine itself that I will remote if I decide to use it. The instructions mention not to use the front brake when the friction drive is in use so stopping is unsafe with a front brake. I also have to remember to pull the lever up, which is behind the seat, hoping releasing the throttle control will slow it down to stop. I will post some pictures because it is in like new condition, the former owner smart enough not to use it after reading the instructions I guess.

My broken tiger generator has an ohlsson rice 111 engine. The connecting rod is broken, crankshaft ok, just missing the other half, still looking. I believe I was trying to unscrew the head at the time, couldn't. I thought at the time the engine was unrepairable, and parts not replaceable so I wasn't careful. Also, the governor is bent, not sure that's salvageable, maybe.

Factory, I have the manual and put it away, but am looking for it, and I will be able to provide more information. Right now I am using an iPad 1, the first one that came out with no camera, but for some reason, I can down load pictures, but having trouble sending pictures but will send pictures soon. I can tell you it has the older style spark plug connector, the clip on version.

From what reading about preservation, I'm guessing there is some preservation oil in the engine itself, and the spark plug removed to pour it in there. I haven't removed anything yet because I haven't started anything yet, and I'm interested in getting the tiny tiger running first, if that's possible. If anyone reading, does that sound right, because it's military, Ohlsson rice, or the military poured preservation oil in the engine through the spark plug, and it has to be removed prior to cranking the engine? Is there any special cleaning of the engine after this preservative is removed, or do you just empty it and put in fresh oil?

Hello factory, and that's the engine I purchased, and just received it today. I was surprised at how small the gas tank was, I always thought they were larger, it looks like a toy, but all the parts look new. There is a notice on the engine that it's preserved, do not crank. Does that mean it just needs oil, or did they add some chemical preservative?

Thank you for the reply. Yes, when disassembling the generator, I tried to separate the magnet from the shaft, and damaged the shaft, plus a corner of the magnet broke off. Also, I would need the ball bearing from it to. The motor I purchased was recently on eBay, and I haven't received it yet. The photos of it on eBay, were a darker color green than the regular army green, but the number on the box in the picture was 2805-939-6818, and another number above the serial number was DAAK01-67-C-1182. Not sure if that helps.

Thank you factory and twin sport. I broke many important pieces of the 3/4 generator during disassembly, one being the crank, lost some bearings which I may be able to find with a magnet but not sure if they will be usable if scratched, so I might need new bearings, I damaged the shaft that the magnet was connected to from the generator, and I would probably need a new shaft and magnet. I don't know if that fuel tank is usable, if the fuel lines in the tank can be serviced, it seems to be one piece that doesn't disassemble. Im not sure where to look for the type number yet, all I can say is it's either marine, who the former seller provides a copy of a marine 3/4 hp manual he advertised as military, but after a couple of messages says he doesn't know. I will send some pictures, I have never seen a marine version in dark green, only red so I will send some pictures after I receive the green one I just purchased. You might have already seen pictures of it on the internet, it was recently advertised as a 1hp military unit. It was different, it looks like some paint was missing from the fuel tank, so I'm not sure it was painted either. Maybe you saw it already and can provide me some info.
