Can anyone help? I bought a couple old Champion motors. Where can I find the identification marks ? I really don’t know anything about them.

Definitely a Champion. But, since you said you have a couple of them. This site has about anything you need to bring one back into service.
I have one of the little 1.25hp air-cooled singles. One of the best running small engines I have ever run.

I went to AOMCI and couldn’t find a search function in the ask a member section. Even tried to join but couldn’t answer the spambot question.
 
The current AOMCI site is not the most robust out there. They are in the middle of getting a new format, software, whatever.....to make the site more up to date.
In the ask-a-member section simply introduce yourself and ask away! You do not have to be a member in that section.
 
Let me ask to see who the Champion contact is and see if you can get some help that way......

Found it.....once in a while I amaze myself.
Contact is Jess Cooper and his email is [email protected]
Let me know if this works for you.
Would just introduce yourself, let him know what you have and what you would like to do with the engines and go from there.
 
That email for Jess cooper must be outdated. I received a message back saying that email address is no good

Okay.....
I am heading to an antique outboard meet in Suwanee starting Thursday.
One of the directors will be there. I will ask that they refresh their listings.
Have you tried the ask a member section again? If not please do.
Yes I have with help from one of the administrators I finally Was able to access and post in the asking member section thank you.

Okay.....are you getting the help and answers you are looking for and has anyone straightened out the email issue with the Champion Guru?
Yes lots of help. No contact with champion guru. I checked for spark and looks like I need points, condenser and coil. Anyone know where I can get new parts?
