Small Fairbanks Combustion Engines
Small Fairbanks Combustion Engines
(OP)
Occasionally a customer wishes to install a small Fairbanks Morse combustion engine on our product and they want to know which motor mount they need to use. As you may already be aware, any small FM combustion engine a customer is wishing to use is almost assuredly used because FM quit mfg the small engines 30 years or so ago. We have contacted FM for bolt settings and their response is they have not produced small engines for so long the bolt setting diagrams for the small engines are no longer available. So far all my searching for long lost copies have turned up nothing dependable. The latest request is for a FM209. I would greatly appreciate any direction anybody may wish to offer about where to look for old catalogs, diagrams, etc that may have FM engine bolt setting information. Thanks, K.

(1) Your customer gets a reality check and upgrades his equipement with new stuff.
(2) Your company charges outrageously exhorbitant prices for chasing this thing down for lazy customers. Usually when this happens, the customer reverts to (1) above.

They do not have too much on Fairbanks Morse.
But they may know people who do.

As posted above checkout the antique engine people, especially those in West Texas.
Also there is someone in India or Pakistan makeing replica of the FM engines,saw it on TV.
I think the old Audel books a section on the FM Engines.
