Rebuilding Coles Corliss Engine and Looking for Tips/Help

(1/2) > >>

George:
Hello All - I am rebuilding a Coles Corliss Engine and would like to know if anyone has any tips on where I can get the best components for it.  Things like oilers, screws, belts etc.  I have all the original plans but need the instructions to tune and time the engine.

Thanks - George

George people will need to know where you are from to be able to identify possible suppliers for you.

Small belts are always difficult to find  :-\

This might sound a bit radical, but have you tried Coles?

In UK these geezers are worth a try  for small rubber belts :

According to his profile George is in California...and btw...welcome to MEM George. Maybe you can post a short introduction in the Welcome section and tell us about your model engine interests.
