Universal Utility Four
Hello Atomic 4 enthusiasts,
I am building a model of a fisherman's launch from the '40s that was designed with the predecessor of the Atomic 4, the Utility 4, in mind. I'm looking for photos or schematics of this earlier engine and am wondering if any of you could point me in the right direction. There is very little online about this engine! Thanks, Michael |

Hello Michael.
The top left photo on this page claims to be a Utility 4: http://progress-is-fine.blogspot.com...tors-1938.html Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the port side of the engine. Hope this helps some. Jack. |

Utility 4 info ...
Jack and Bill,
Thanks so much, those are very helpful and I have also found photos of an engine on sale (ebay) as well as a restoration log elsewhere on the web. Considering the engine's popularity and use during WWII I'm surprised there is so little information! It does appear to share a lot with the Atomic 4. Michael |

Michael,
Found these on an E-Bay ad: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1940-Univer...-/154050119534 If the ad is gone, I downloaded the full-size images (1600x900)

Fabulous! Thank you so much. Now, to finish up my current project .... I do wonder if any of these are still in service somewhere?
