Martin 45 1985.024.002
A vertical-block in-line twin from 1951, popular with fisherman. This engine has mechanically-operated poppet valves which allow it to idle slow for trolling. Has both idle and high-speed richness adjustment through the front casing, as well as choke/run and fuel valve. Ignition is through a slot in the top of the case. Like most Martins, this engine has a knob in front between the mounting screws which can be turned to trim the engine while it is running. Nice decal in back.Collection
