This is a flat four cylinder 525cc engine designed and produced for the US military. They were used for generators, water pumps, blowers, and more. We got this one from a friend, then Ike went out and bought two more from the military surplus store! They sound like miniature Volkswagen Beetle engines. The packaging is very small on these engines, and they only weight 75 lbs. With a little more tuning, they could make the perfect oddball go kart or mini bike engine!

@goosenotmaverick1156 9 ай бұрын

I love all the different pony motors especially the weird ones, I think they made a small CI V4 gas for large diesel engines. Fascinating to have to start an engine, to start your engine. Using coolant from pony motor to pre-heat the larger engine was a genius move if you ask me. I love all old engines, small, large, especially the weird, and the small diesel stuff. My dream is to have one of the small Detroit's like a 2-53 I think? They're really rare, I may have to compromise for something like a 3-4 cylinder 53 or 71. But I like them all.

6hp Stock horsepower according to the manual that came with my 4a032 military engine. Mine was brand spanking new in the crate. In reality they are 12-14hp stock. With a modded or different carburetor you can get 16-20hp out of them fairly easy.

I think I have a few parts laying around for these. They made a single and a twin cylinder variant as well. I've had multiple of the twin cylinders and one single. They wake up nicely with a bigger carb if its tuned right. One thing to note, try to avoid over-revving these. They are near bulletproof until you start pushing the revs, which is their one weakness.

Those flat 4's were made by Continental Motors for the military. They also made a single and an inline twin version for smaller gensets, air pumps, etc. I have a twin cylinder version sitting out in my shop that I had modified for an off-road trike.The motors are very well built, but the magnetos on just about all of them were trash. Mine was points ignition, so I eventually converted it to battery ignition with a coil off of a blown Honda 550. The Honda coils are perfect because of the 'wasted spark ignition', as the Continental twin fires every 360 degrees. The intake runners are relatively tiny so they don't make much horsepower unless you make custom runners with individual carbs. They're also very low compression ratio (like 7.5 or 8:1), so good torque, but not much horsepower. The most you'd probably get out of that flat 4 is maybe 15 hp. or so on a single carb.😉

That is a 4A032 General Purpose engine, they were used for generators, water pumps, air compressors, and other places where an engine of that size was needed. A larger size titled 4A084 was also ordered by the military. It was rated for a conservative 6 HP. I have one still in the crate, new never had oil in it. A starter was optional. A BMW 318i starter will fit with some slight modifications. Really good engines with decent torque for their size, but limited on the amount of RPM as they do not have oil channels for the crankshaft.

@michaelsullivan2361 8 ай бұрын

I was a mechanic/motor sergeant in the 80’s. Had a lot of experience with those engines. They were part of “the military standard” series of engines. All sharing standardized bore and stroke, common: Pistons Rods Pushrods Heads Valves Rockers They were made in: Single cylinder (1hp) Twin cylinder (2hp) Four cylinder (6hp) They were purely industrial designs, made to run 24/7 at rated horsepower in all environments. Really well built to high standards. Being industrial, they were optimized for longevity and parts commonality over performance. In the 70’ the army did a study to improve performance and efficiency. Redesigned the heads with higher compression, correctly sized valves (the originals had the same size intake & exhaust valves) and improved cam profiles. Result basically tripled the horsepower of each, while improving efficiency. Without a reduction in longevity. By the time testing was complete, the army had decided on dieselization of the entire fleet, including small engines. So the improved design was never adopted.

@hensleyshobbies-doug7761 9 ай бұрын

Those engines were built by Teledyne, 32 ci, rated 15-20 hp but the military also had 4 cyl air cooled engines that were Willy's, but they also had engines built by other mfg'rs too. The military had another deal called a "Mule" , they had the 4 cyl Willy's engine, when I was in the KyArNG we had some that we kept at the Ft. Knox motorpool, our motor pool but those Mules were badass.

That new home for a refugee military motor has awesome written all over it; I figure you two for just the guys to wring the potential out of it! When you get all four cylinders firing, you might want a bit smaller gear on the axle- while you are in there, a .75 inch or 1.00 inch axle might also be a thought. And maybe a bit bigger gas tank to feed the drinking problem. You didn't day, but 1:19 for a sick motor and a cart not really gone through was pretty quick all things considered. Just under a minute will get anything on the board; three cylinders of this thing will do that!

Dont undo the vertical screw on top. The original carb is probably still good but dont leave gasoline in it, ethanol will rot the seals and arent really available. The original service and operation manuals are readily available online so you can preset the carb thats pretty sensitive about the afr and governor adjustment.

one trick my dad used to do with electric motors, which should also work on the starter. take it apart, get the windings out or get clear access to them. clean them via electronic cleaner. let it dry. then soak the windings with rattle can lacquer. about half the time it will fix the motor and make it like new. sometimes they get weak or stop due to the coating going away on the windings. but between cleaning them and recoating them it can make them functional again. that or if you have a local place the rewinds generators, alternators and starters, pay them to just redo it.

Hardly any of these have been used - not enough h.p.'s vs. weight. They're built like little tanks though.

Love to see this engine in a old murdercycle frame and turn up at a meet just to see people puzzle over what the heck it is 😁

You need to get rig of that massive flywheel for one. Strip it down to the bare essentials and make a good exhaust.

I enjoy seeing the wild things you 2 do. Would love to see ya'll do a tank build focused around that military engine. Possibly using a 6x6 as a jumping off point. Just a thought.
