I noticed this contraption a few times on vintage cars, and trucks. I had a name that I cannot grasp right now. I think it was called an aspirator, or something along those lines. It was a specific device used to lube/clean, the intake system, and clean the combustion chamber.
Do any of you remember the glass bottle mounted in the engine compartment? I think that marvel mystery oil was put in the bottle. Then the vacuum from the engine would bubble the oil, and inject small amounts into the intake.
At the time that I called Arrow Prop. I told them that I had a 25 hp engine. The prop was supposed to be a 40". I cannot say anything about the pitch. It is stamped 40P3A20, but I cannot make sense of the numbers. I must mean 40", 3 blade, 20 pitch. But you would have to clarify that...
4A032 fan motor
Saturn supplied the pto stub shaft. 24 volt starter from ebay. The prop is supplied by arrow prop. The pedestal is 2" aluminum pipe.

The bow fishing fan is a success. It will start with a spin of the prop. I have it rigged dual fuel. The float swelled, and I had to trim it. To this point I have not sealed the float. The coil on the left must be mounted upside down. It took a couple of days to figure out that one...
I am trying to get the plastic gear for the governor drive. I am planning a bowfishing rig. Should that fall short I will need the governor.
Also the alternator bracket.
