Fairbanks Morse Jack of all Trades Question

[Jack H]

Help oh well of engine wisdom !
I have a Fairbanks 2 HP Jack of all Trades that has me wondering about a couple of things. I unscrewed the oiler from the cylinder of the engine and I check ball fell out, is this the check ball that is part of the drip oiler or does this kind of engine have a check ball in this location? My second question is are there any more magnetos floating around for this type of engine? It has a bracket with 2 holes drilled in it 2" on center. Thanks for any info, I am a Newbie on this type of engine!

The ball is from the oiler, Never seen or heard of a magneto on a Jack of all trades. I would imagine it would have been a dynamo type if there were a mag. There is no mention in the Fairbanks book by Wendal. Here is a photo of the 2 hp that I have.

Denny,
Appreciate the wisdom. Your engine has the pedestal and the origional gas tank, nice! I'll have to post some pictures of mine, if I wasn't at the office I would put them on right now, I'll have to wait until I get Home tonight.
Thanks,
Jack
