Thats odd

Is that a valve lifter on the out side of the motor:question: Its old maybe came off of a old mini bike or one of them bikes that you had to pedal to get it started. That about all i can think of.

Hey Kevin - That looks like the spark plug is in great shape. The rest of it might make a good anchor. LOL. Herb

My guess is it's a compression release. That box must be the air filter. Wonder what the RPM's are.

Perhaps one of the early gasoline engines from a washing machine???

No that has to be a valve if you look on the side of that one there is another one that don't have the spring and rocker arm.

the size looks right to be a wash machine engine. it likely only had the 1 rocker arm for exhaust the intake valve had a light spring used vacuum to open it. box looks like it would have been the fuel tank so the engine would mount with the cylynder horizontal.

Actually I'm saving $5.00 per month. I was just surprised when I logged in to TF.com using the new ISP that your pictures showed up. I don't know why, but who cares, it's working.
