If I understood the owner right, while trying to keep tabs on my 4 yr. old grandson and through the noise of the engine. It was built in the 1800's for steam and converted for gas and it was a 2 cycle. NEAT !!

Thanks everyone, if I can found the carb that will be the main thing, I would think I can make the rocker parts , just another project to ad to the list.

Hopefully this is my first one, the next one will only get BIGGER
