    Have you had a close look to see if bearings have any numbers on them?
    Are you measuring in imperial or metric? Simply Bearings have a good website.

    Where have you tried so far? Have you tried a search on the internet, yellow pages etc?

    The original twin cylinder engine used on the Howard Gem was their own design. Earlier examples did use a V twin engine. Someone did have all the information on a website but I think they took the site down due to spam attacks.

    I knew I had something filed away, see attached. I have more and will email them all to you as the files are too large to upload to forum.

    Mine arrived yesterday. I wonder how many readers will spot the ‘Fake’ machine which will be the subject of an article for December issue.

    We are aware of the ‘fake’machine and a follow on article will appear in the December issue warning members of the perils of relying on unverified information on the internet or in print.
    It will be interesting to see how many spot the fake.

    The information I have does not list a 676B, it does have a 576B which was fitted to JAP 4/2, 5 & 6 engines. I have copied what information I have, see attached, it could be someone has fitted an alternative magneto.

    William, the click you are listening for is the magneto impulse. Not all magnetos are fitted with them, it nay be that it is the wrong magneto. There should be a small plate on the magneto giving type, if you could post that up on here it will help identify what magneto you have. Also which model of Petter A, and serial number as looking at the Wico magneto information I have several different magnetos were fitted over the years.

    It sounds like you have what is often called a shandy barrow

    An interesting question. I suspect the answer is no one knows as it is a scenario that has not come up before. I am sure there would be some interest. It is worth noting that a new machine would not be eligible for a prize in a vintage class.

    All I know relates to W L Bartrop. They were agricultural engineers and ironmongers in Highworth, the town I was born near to. Some photographs of the shop and works can be seen on the Highworth Historical Society website
    I also remember seeing one of the Greenfield tractors at a vintage rally held near Highworth around 2003.
