Hobart 12.5K Generator with Willys engine

Post by chucks_toy » Thu Jan 07, 2021 7:40 am

This is a 1942 Hobart military generator. Hour meter shows 117 hours. It has a cj2a Willys engine in it. One side panel is missing, all other sheet metal is good. When I purchased it the governor seal was leaking oil, so I by passed the governor. It starts right up and does not smoke. I ran this engine on January 6, 2021. The carb and fuel system needs to cleaned due to sitting, I am running it off of a portable tank. I sold my cj2a and now do not need this engine. I can't load pictures, see them here; https://stlouis.craigslist.org/tls/d/si ... 43282.html

Still have it. I have a short clip of a video of it running, I don't believe I can put it on this sight.

I will ship, payment to paypal. You must arrange for pickup and the pickup service must be able to load it by themselves.

The Craigslist link you posted is no longer available. Can you post pictures of current state? Or send to me?
