Can anyone tell me exactly what model this is ? Year of manufacture ? Anthing really.



Thanks in anticipation

PS. I have managed to lose all previous replies - Sorry can't cope with modern things like computers !!


Fascinating, haven't a clue though! It seems to have glow plugs as well as provision for starting papers.

No mention of a small engine like this from McLaren in the 1946 edition of 'Modern Oil Engine Practice', though it must be from that sort of period.

Cheers Tim
