My father just asked for my help trying to locate as much info as i can regarding an old gas engine that he has. It was my great grandfathers and it ran up until this past year. A couple parts have broken and rusted due to neglect and we cant find anyone who can help with a diagram of the motor (engine) . We know it is from Witte Engine Works out of Kansas City, MO. probably in the late 20's early 30's. it is a 6hp 1 cylinder flywheel type engine. please, if anyone has any info that might help it would be much appreciated.
