That is a Bing engine. Nice model too. If you want to find out the specific model and get some help on running it, Contact the guy on that website (John) Tell him Casey sent you.

Thank you. It is definitely a Bing. Does anyone know of a source for replacement belts? Also, what is the best way to fill the small triple burner?? Thank you!!
