I have a 1 cyl. air cooled diesel that I don't know a thing about, there is a sticker on the fuel tank that says "Hamilton engine sales" located in Oregon I think Salem, it is covered in tar or something like it so is hard to read, it also says they sell these engines but I can only read Perkins none of the others, it is electric start and has a hand start option and a decompression lever that you flip then crank five turns and it engages, I am not able to start it this way, the compression is too much, but if I run it for a while it will start by hand. it is painted yellow, is about 3 feet tall and weighs more than two men can carry very well. what I would like to know is, who made it, how old, how many horsepower etc. the guy I got it from said they used engines like it for running generators on repeator towers too far from electricity, they were hooked to a 1,000 gallon diesel tank and let run 24/7 and only shut down every other year or so to change the oil and refuel. I hope somebody has some info on this engine, it runs too good to not use but I want to be able to get parts. any info on what this might be would be appreciated, thanks.
