Wow, they used to use timing belts on outboards back then. Is that a 4-stroke? What would a t-belt run on a 2 stroke. That engine is way before my time, just curious, always willing to learn. Thanks.

Cricket Too: Back then, they drove the distributor, or magneto, depending on what the engine used. On some model's, they also drove the generator.
