5HP Goodyear Engine

[Holeshot ETF]

Hi all My first Post, I had a guy on my Board refer me to you Guys, said yall may be able to help me out.

My dad had someone give him a 5 HP Goodyear Motor, which he gave to me to try to fix, well after tinkering with it for the last few days, I realize I need to get a Carb Kit for it, I think the Motor is 1949 - 1950 twin Cyl 2-stroke Engine, from the Research I have done it was originaly made by GALE a div of OMC, Does anyone Know where I could get parts for this thing online? I did a Compression Check on the engine & I got 55# on the Bottom Cyl & 60# on the Top Cyl. is this normal Compression on a 1950's Engine? I am getting Good spark @ both Cyls, just not getting any gas to the Cyls.

The thing that blew my mind was it had an Accual CORK float in the Carb. did they come from the Factory back then with a Cork FLoat? or has someone done some redneck engineering?

I has a Gas Tank that mounts on top of the engine, probably Holds 1/2 gallon of gas.

If anyone know anything abuot these motors Please enlighten me. as I can find very little on the Web about this.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the Links!

I have already Send a few Emails to some of the Companies, just waiting for a response back.

Does 55# & 60# Compression sound to Low for a Motor that Low? or is that in the correct range?

Thanks again for your help!
