My uncle gave me a small engine and have no clue to what make it is. He said when it was put in the shed it ran but i'm not sure. It kind of looks funny because from just looking at it looks like the crankshaft is way above the oil level but maybe theres a dipper and the cylinder is horizontal. The crankshaft is also horizontal. The Carburetor is bolted to a 90 dergree elbow bolted to the block. On the head is a name plate which has a lot of info. First on top it has the name Busy Bee and says its 5 hp and runs at 2600 rpm. The name plate also says its got a 2 3/4 inch bore and 3 inch stroke, and a minimum gas octane of 67. Theres no gas tank on it but says its 2 gallons. The crankcase is 1 qt and a spark plug gap of .025 inch but there's no spark plug in it. If you know the spark plug to it give a hollar. Its also got instructions to start it. First, to start open the needle valve 1 1/4 turns out, which ever one that is! To stop press the grounding strip to the spark plug. Theres also a warning that says to drain the oil every 50 hrs. At the bottom of the name plate is the model number which is model AB with a serial number of 3 - 10what looks to a weak stamped 5 and 05(Model AB 3 - 10 05). Below all that at the bottom it says Gladden Products Corp. Glendale 4 Calif. And yes theres a four in there. I'm not sure where the motor came off from but there's a 3 belt pulley on the drive shaft. Also the shroud that goes around the flywheel is missing and to start it there's a notched pulley bolted to the flywheel to pull with a rope. Any help would be appreciated! Mike

Sounds like a great little engine. I'm not sure what it is, but something you wrote caught my eye. You said the gas tank was off. Then I see it says to turn the needle valve. It sounds more like a fuel mixer that sucks fuel from a tank and you adjust your needle for fuel mixing. My guess is and I may be wrong but if it's what I think it don't have a float bowl on the carb. Just a guess you can tell me if I am wrong. I am going to do some research and try and find out what it was on. Thanks Jonathan
