In addition to the Marine version they also made the Midget (shown). They also made one called (I think) the Mite...don't have one of those.

Forgot to mention, those O&R .049's and one of the K&B .049's (Sky Fury, I think) used an extra short plug. If you used a normal short, you needed to add extra glow plug gaskets.

Not sure but the Mite seems to be the Midget without the tank.

I think the Mite had a shorter crankshaft too, but yes it was without tank.

Mark,
Thanks for displaying the Mite. When I tried to run my Midget it was a no-go. I had assumed that the induction system was too old to function but it may have been the missing intake tubing (restriction) causing it to not draw fuel. I may try again...someday. :-)
