RE: Can anyone identify this engine?
Thats a 1980's John Maloney 100 or 125 on ignition. That muffler is home made, the engine came with a bullet shaped muffler with two exhaust stacks that could be arranged to fit any particular cowl. These engines are very reliable, but dont produce a whole lot of power. I needed an electric starter to get mine to start, but it never quit on me once started.
