Fairbanks Morse Z 3hp 1920      

This engine was actually restored by us but belongs to a Local fellow enthusiast.  When obtained the engine was in bits and had some quite nasty repairs, the piston pin which is normally held by a small screw inside the piston had been welded into the piston at some time,  This had eventually broken loose and put four nasty scours down the bore. The engine still runs but requires a new liner some time in the future,  The engine is a petrol paraffin model and has a HT Bosch flick magneto.

Engine No.437740   3 Bhp @ 450 rpm
