Chicken Motor

[Plinny]

Chicken-Power,== I know a lot about these ! They used the 1hp Ohlsson & Rice motor. Also, similar kits sold under the name Orline, [ see my Avatar pix ]. O & R were also famous for R/C airplane/boat engines. Tough, screaming little motors !! If it has sat awhile, they will almost always need fuel system cleaning & a carb diaphram. That part is available as a reproduction, but it's awfully hard to find other parts. These engine show up on E Bay quite often, powering many different tools, as well as bike motors. I wish they were still in business. Many won't like to hear me say this,, but quality wise, they put the Chinese motors to shame !

Moderators Note:

This thread has now been locked by me as it tends to drag up some really ancient artifacts, mostly from 2008 when the thread began and it's all about the very ancient "Chicken Motor" from the early 1960s...lol.

If I can remember them, you KNOW it's really ancient history...lol.
