Well after looking at Teeks old school unknown minibike. I brought mine up from the chicken coop. I also pulled out a small 2.5hp Tecumseh and old belt driven clutch my old buddy gave me around 4 years ago. He gave me the clutch and a 1942 Briggs model N. He said he bought it new in the 40s for a yard cart he wanted to build, but never did. Well so i wanted to take it apart by the 2 screws on the front to see how it worked. Well i took off the screws but it wouldnt pull apart. So i tiped it over pulling on it and mercury came out the holes. I was like WTF. So i put the scews back in and did some research. The only numbers on it are FD 181-15, and 2 PAT NO. I couldnt find anything on the FD number. But i did find the PAT. (Im not sure if anyone has tried this on unknown stuff with a PAT NO) Heres the link. CLUTCH - Google Patents
Cool info. It gives the name of the guy who invented it, but not the builder or manufacture. Anyone know anything about these old clutch's?
