1932 Maytag 92 "Multi-Motor"
2 stroke, 3/4 hp, ~1,000 rpm, runs on a 16:1 mix
Decided to try playing w/ something different. I became fascinated w/ these after going to a fly-in that also had an antique engine show.
It is almost all original, but was missing some parts and not running when I got it. I took it apart and went through it, keeping as much of the original (or old restoration's) finish and patina as possible and sourcing some repro plug wire, an original type plug and newer points. After a carb rebuild and some effort w/ the timing, I finally got her running well today. Lots of smoke...
