I have a question
Mark,
Sorry your engine is just too old. we have no 'real world' data on it.
Those old engines which we know we have parts for are listed in the parts listings at:
http://www.osengines.com/parts/discontinued.html
http://www.supertigre.com/parts/index.html
If your engine is not listed here, we have little or no information available to assist you.
These gentlemen rebuild old motors and stock large quantities of older engine parts. Either of them may be able to assist you:
