Mister, your video quality is second to none . And the steps shown explain themselves. Thank you for such a thoroughly professional presentation. Greetings from South Carolina!
A couple of things about the assembly. A drop of oil on the timing gear where it runs on the shaft would help. The connecting rod caps are aligned and only go on one way, same with the main bearing caps as there is a right and a left. You also lubed the wrong side of the rod bearings, but you did lube the crank, so it made up for that. There is an alignment on the flywheels. The counter weights should be across from each other and away from the piston which should be at top dead center. When you tighten the flywheel down on the governor side it changes the distance from the slide to the gear, you have to adjust for that. You did not show the valve clearance adjustment made at the push rod and the rocker arm. If you mount the fuel tank 180 degrees from where you mounted it, there is more clearance to fill the tank. You have the filler close to the valve train. Finally, there is a way to route the wiring through the frame to tidy it up. Minor things, but there is a right and wrong way to assemble engines.
@@beulahalestick8297 That is what I did, but they still wanted to come out. I finally got it though. It took a while to get the carb tuned, but it runs great.
They have a hit n miss engine show in my area every year... They have a 125 h.p. engine.. its as large as a freight train... Very nice video.. thx for sharing...
I love hit and miss engines. I go to a festival here in the town in. It runs one weekend at the end of every April and September. There's a LOT of old hit and miss engines on display, and also old diesel engines and old steam engines. I love it.
It would work but it would take a very long time to recharge a cellphone. It's very cool engine but the simple fact is it probably doesn't put out enough power to charge a cellphone in less than 24 hours.
I bought this same model, which is still in the box. I also have a Stuart 10H steam engine hooked up to a dynamo that fits in a cigar box. The goal is a steam-powered cell phone charger.
for mounting the fuel tank, I think it would be easier to mount the inside portions first then put the fuel tank in the grooves then fold the straps over to the outside and mount there, that way there won't be any hassle
Thanks for sharing your very nifty engine. I have a couple "one lungers" , that were used in a saw mill and for water pumps in AK. I wish you all the best in all future endeavors.
I use the bottom valve to shut the engine down, I actually have no idea what its used for. Feel free to use my link and coupon, gives you extra discount. bit.ly/49OPPXk Discount code: AJRESTORATIONS
The bottom valve is the Intake valve. It has a weaker spring on it that the piston will suck open on the down stroke. My full-size Sattley you actually hold it open with your finger to release the compression as you spin up the flywheel.

That engine doesn't produce enough power to run more than a 2 lumen LED. You would be better off with a candle. Even better an oil lamp with a glass chimney. Seriously.
Well if you want to hit or miss engine and you don't have a lot of room this isn't that bad way to go. Buying a fully restored engine will cost you about the same plus it takes up a lot of room. That little guy you could hide in your sock drawer away from the wife.😂

I hope you got some satisfaction out of assembling ready cast and machined parts. Surely the joy comes from MAKING the parts from plans. I've got a lightbulb that needs changing, do you think you could handle something as complicated as that ?
@@AJRestoration Sure am Buddy. I was an amateur machinist, and made everything from scratch, scrap and my own sketches, working things out as I went. I made mistakes, who doesn't, but when I got things right, the sense of satisfaction was heart lifting. All you are doing is putting Leggo together and claiming it as your own work.

Hear hear! (to the NO MUSIC!!) Just out of interest..... 1. Why did you fit the tank with the filler on the right? Would it not have been easier to have it on the left away from the valve gear? 2.Also why not screw the straps to the sled BEHIND the tank first. Surely less fiddlesome. 3. PLEASE tell me where I can buy this kit. I'm too old to go lugging full size H&M engines round rally fields, but I miss my Bamford 'Tulip Top' like crazy. I'm in the U.K. Many thanks.
@AJRestoration Exactly. There's plenty to be gained by building such a kit, fun, learning, satisfaction, etc. Like you, I would buy a kit over a ready built unit every time.
The fun is in assembling the engine. Ask any model-maker. At school...13 years old.... 1960.... l actually machined my own parts from stock material to make a steam engine and boiler in the metal work class.
Wow, the sound of a shop! No blaring music, congrats on a well made video, please make more.
I can't believe it .a video without ridiculous annoying music ! well done 10/10
Thank you, yes I don't do the crappy music and sped up videos.
I agree. I abandon videos with awful noise, posing as music. Total spoiler for me.
Completely agree. No annoying music.
Yes, great video with really nice background sounds! Well done!
Yes, I just subscribed because of that!
I'm impressed. I've restored 17 antique cars, but I'm getting old.
I've found a new hobby.
Its a great hobby.

Take a hike.
@@UT-CLANS I do every day, thanks.
I believe he used the lube to hold the bearings in place during installation.
@@beulahalestick8297 That is what I did, but they still wanted to come out. I finally got it though. It took a while to get the carb tuned, but it runs great.
@@UT-CLANS this is good criticism, feedback like this is stupidly important when doing things like this. I dont think he should take a hike at all.
They have a hit n miss engine show in my area every year... They have a 125 h.p. engine.. its as large as a freight train... Very nice video.. thx for sharing...
Wow imagine putting this small one on top of the large 125hp for comparison.
Glad you got that put together All of those small parts can get lost real quick Glad they sent it with the tools to help you get it put together
I did almost lose some of the small parts. Had to go down on my knees to look for it haha
@@AJRestoration well at least you found them to get it done otherwise you would have to get more of them from the company that made it
All the way from china, that would be sad to wait a week for parts.
@@AJRestoration you got that right AJ 💪😎😁
Steady and deliberate. And, as always, have the right good tools helps greatly,
What an impressive kit. It appears to be of high quality parts and the paint is beautiful.
It is full stainless steel, really good build quality.
I love hit and miss engines. I go to a festival here in the town in. It runs one weekend at the end of every April and September. There's a LOT of old hit and miss engines on display, and also old diesel engines and old steam engines. I love it.
If I had this, I would attempt to turn it into a generator to charge 5V devices just for the heck of it. Nothing like a working engine.
It would work but it would take a very long time to recharge a cellphone. It's very cool engine but the simple fact is it probably doesn't put out enough power to charge a cellphone in less than 24 hours.
@@bradbergman3673Little motor could probably get a little generator to put out 20 watts
I bought this same model, which is still in the box.
I also have a Stuart 10H steam engine hooked up to a dynamo that fits in a cigar box.
The goal is a steam-powered cell phone charger.
Wonderful video. Beautiful craftsmanship, a work of art. Thank you.
A big thanks to you buddy!
For all of us who love motors, it's gorgeous.
for mounting the fuel tank, I think it would be easier to mount the inside portions first then put the fuel tank in the grooves then fold the straps over to the outside and mount there, that way there won't be any hassle
I saw that.
Yes I agree
Ok Smart*ss next time
The tank looks mounted backwards.....fuel filler cap should be on the less obstructed side. Fuel outlet hose is centered below, either way.
Great video! It's possible that a light interference bearing shell fit in the con rod big end will keep it from rotating yet leave crankpin clearance.
Nice to watch being assembled. And the engine was beautifully designed and manufactured ! 😊❤😊
Where do you get these kits,would make a great gift 🎁🎁.
That's what I want to know also
Yes but 400 eur
Wonderful mechanical masterpiece! Excellent assembly job. Enjoyed this video very much.
Good video, Is it important where the counterweights on the flywheels go?
Thanks for sharing your very nifty engine. I have a couple "one lungers" , that were used in a saw mill and for water pumps in AK.
I wish you all the best in all future endeavors.
Now you need to put it on a tiny pump jack like they use on a oil or gas well 👍
Oh man that would be awesome! That might happen in the future.
Nice job!
I love the sound it makes.
Glad you like it!
Cool little project. Nicely done.
Glad you like it Mark, its was a lot of fun building it.
Great video, what an awesome build!! 👍👍
My hit/miss is a little different, like 500lbs heavier. 😉😅😅
My grand dad had one on a tractor you could hear it coming from miles away.
I've always loved these kinds of old engines, they have a certain charm.
That is cute, they even give you a syringe of Lubriplate 105 as assembly lube.👍😎
Dropped the clutch too quick at the end 🤣
That thing is nice, man. Good video.
And it will run slow, like they should. Very good video!
What kind of grease did you use? Looks like a lithium grease? I couldn't find any direction in the manual on this.
I used molybdenum disulfide grease, but you gan use general purpose grease.
Beautifully machined and assembled; ran perfect! What?? No whistle? lol
what fuel are you using? I tried The zippo lighter fluid like the instructions say, but that does not seem to be working.
Neat machine , good job building it .
Thank you! It was a lot of fun building it!
Retired Mech Eng here. Great post!
Awesome! Thank you!
Where did you source the fuel tank, base and spark plug? Or does the kit now come with these parts? 🙂
Do they have anything to belt up to this motor to run like a little pump or something?
I think they have a small little pump that works.
If it rotates, oil it; if it slides, grease it.
Good tip!
What a beautiful little masterpiece 😍
Nice! I know what I want for my birthday this year.
You won't regret it!
Amsterdam
Wauw what a pretty little machine ❤
Beautiful Job, thank you. I need to get one of those.
A beautifully presented model, cheap at twice the price!
Merry Christmas AJ, and I hope you have an awesome new year.
Happy holidays Racheal! Happy new year to you!
Yea! no big bang music, looks like a 10-18 year old assembled. sounds and runs great.. sounds like a 4 banger.
if you fixed the inner end of the fuel-tank straps first, it would be easier to put the second pair of screws in.
I was thinking he had the fuel tank in backwards....filler neck should be on the side with fewer obstructions.
Even better... bend the brass straps into the desired U shape by wrapping them around the fuel tank BEFORE setting the tank on it's pedestal.
Nice engine but how does the rod bearing get lubercated?
It is lubricated before each run, with a little bit of oil. Some user use grease.
It's adorable! But it looks like they used a single rubber O-ring in place of their piston ring, which seems awful.
Cool engine, but what is the extra valve used for ? I'm definitely going to buy one. Thanks
I use the bottom valve to shut the engine down, I actually have no idea what its used for. Feel free to use my link and coupon, gives you extra discount.

It's the INLET valve! "Schnüffelventil"
The bottom valve is the Intake valve. It has a weaker spring on it that the piston will suck open on the down stroke. My full-size Sattley you actually hold it open with your finger to release the compression as you spin up the flywheel.
I cannot believe that anyone could create a video without a commentary! Looks a nice project though.
@@philipemmans2001 not everyone likes to talk on video, I like to let the hands do the talking.
From India. Nice work. Very fine.
This little thing is pretty cool
The inertial governors on this small engine are really similar to that of a go kart motor that is driven off the cam
What I love is the valve clearance 😂 "How many thousands does it need, boss?"
"your gonna need a measuring tape, not a feeler gauge"
Hahaha pretty much, I kinda went by the eye.
Something's wrong with the con rod journal. Should not be that tight.
You should have used power tools, lol, I'm only kidding, beautiful engine,excellent video.
Haha thank you!
Great job. Thank you 😊
I want one, where can you buy them ?
I honestly loved your video.
Every boy needs a hit n miss engine once in his lifetime
Love it!! Great video!!!
Glad you liked it!!
Éstos son los juguetes más geniales que un viejo como yo necesita ☹️🕶️👍
would i be missing something i could not see lubrication for big and small end on piston con rod
Those are lubed before every use.
A beautiful little engine nice interesting video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Very cool, great job!
Thank you! Cheers buddy!
Now make a fan next to it powered by it😊
This is quite therapeutic
I am glad you liked it!

did it come with the base?
Yes it came with the base. If you plan to buy one make sure to just double check.
@@AJRestoration im buying from engineDIY. Im wondering why the pre built version is cheaper than the kit version.
great job my friend
Thank you so much!😊
what a cool lil engine powering a lamp at your cabin while reading a book.
That engine doesn't produce enough power to run more than a 2 lumen LED. You would be better off with a candle. Even better an oil lamp with a glass chimney. Seriously.
