ABC V 4

Ps
i have recently purchased a”Bee” not one of the 4 mentioned above, this engine was in a collection of a Mr Fletcher of Derby, ex RR man who also had various radial engines , a Wooler flat 4 and a Merlin, my friend Jim Anderson of Rosyth collector of unusual stationary engines etc managed to persuade mr Fletcher to sell, this was 30 or so years ago, I was with Jim when he collected it.
now 30 years later I have managed to convince Jim to let me take ownership!
in the 30 years of Jim’s ownership it has sat in his dining room and never touched in any way!
this morning I turned the engine over and managed to get sparks on two plugs fed by l/h magneto, I’m sure the other two will spark after a bit of work in points on other magneto.
i plan to drain oil, flush engine then refill and go for a start over this winter.
after that I was thinking of a motorcycle build incorporating the engine.
the engine has the original starter generator with it but will likely need another solution if fitted in m/c!
best regards 
Alex

How do I post pictures on this site?

Look below the text box, there's a called "+ Add files..."
Click on it and add your pictures but make sure these are smaller that 5MB (you don't want to fill up me disk or the website will eventually crush)
Once that's done, you can click on the button "Insert" which shows underneath the pictures.
I know it's a bit of a long way around butt his gives you the opportunity to load all the pictures at once and then insert them separately wherever you like in the text you're typing.
