New Way Stationary Engines

Aim - To serve and support the New Way Stationary Engine restoration community.
There was a New Way Stationary Motor inclined to Hit and Miss. It was designed that way but intermittently it would missfire and this in the confines of the beekeepers shed fired my imagination, grabbing my senses. I just loved the sound of the New Way 3.5Hp working - likely fuelled by a too rich mixture.
With each missfire came the tell tale puff of blue smoke and via the old sawbench, the beekeeping manufacturing business was underway, alive and well. Alf was in his element. Romance, nah, hard work but Hoots the New Way went a long way in firing the imagination of times past running in the present. The present, after all, that's where life is, it's not in the past, but romancing the past, that's the present if you're living it.
The priveledge of life. Present and past is now!!! - alive.

New Way Machinery - LIBRARY NEWS

New Way Motor Company Documentation

LIBRARY GROWTH
Recently we have added another 3 documents to the library. These are all in excellent condition and cover various aspects of the "New Way Motor Company" range of engines and their application. It brings the total available for download to 90.

Obviously the library continues to grow, but the throttle governed instruction for the 8 and 12 Hp twins continues to evade us. We trust that one day we will be able to make it available in watermarked version to enthusiasts.

COMPANY OPERATIONS RECORDS
On the matter of documentation we have recently contacted the Michigan Libraries in the hope they had received updated material on the company operations etc. Often this occurs when estate material is bequeathed to public institutions. Unfortunately " New Way" company records are very scarce with nothing further available.
We would love to find some more exhaustive actual company records especially related to the specifics of their factories and plant development.
