I am ready for more O&R training. My brother and I are headed to Daytona swap meet. We will have circus bike and sidewalk surfer on display with O&R wanted sign. With his extra engine and my extra motor I will have an engine to rebuild train on. My first ride on Skateboard went as expected. 10ft(less than) skinned my knees and it took off full throttle, Had to run and tackle it. Would have been on America's funniest had it been filmed. I have new needs and questions. My original carb had a forward fuel line inlet, but has pad style float. New has rear facing fuel line inlet, but has ball float. need one with front/ball ?? Also ruined my new diapram with my multiple times getting ball to stop sticking and adjusting float rod right. Am waiting to go to Daytona next week and make a list of parts needed to get everything up to snuff. Thanks for all the help again Jon.
WOW, what an excellent display and collection that is!
That's the kind of display which always attracts lots of attention over here at our shows too. Lots of interesting engine stuff to see and watch it run plus all the supporting tools and information too.
Shipping is kind of expensive but not too bad. The 2 drills I had shipped from there in 1 box were about $85 if I remember correctly. send me a PM about it and maybe we can work something out
OK if you have a spare one can you send it over please !!
Trade a couple for that Turbair Tot!
I can probably collect a few and send them over if you guys are serious. These and the Tiny Tiger 300 generators seem to be the most common O&R tools available over here.
This is a pair of type 106 engines. The one on the left appears to have been used in a boat. The one on the right has a centrifugal clutch and an odd muffler.
I fired up the Sea Queen over the weekend and wow, I was impressed with the power that the Octura rotary valve and carb put out. You can see, feel and hear the power. My neighbor actually came over and told me that it was the loudest boat that he has ever heard, including full sized boats! It makes a very loud crack or popping noise. I'm curious as to how much power that the performance parts really add. It might have too much power and noise for a cabin cruiser and I may switch the engine with the White Heat.

This one has a throttle control which must have been an option, because these are also seen without it
