Who knows what type of engine a Crosley had?
2 responses total.
The book I have says that from 1939 to 1952, Crosley used a L4 12Hp (1939) and a L4, 44.0 25.5hp in 1952. L means that it was a straight, inline engine as oopsed to a V-block. I have further stats, if you want them.
I believe you are essentially correct. However, the engine block was a metal stamping ! ! ! Can you believe that. I know this was true at least in the war years and post war years. I have heard that the engine had a durability problem which was mostly attributed to galvanic corrosion from the different metal types used, although I don't know if that is accurate. When I was a tyke, my dad had a (new) Crosley, and I know that on more than one occasion, a wheel came off while he was driving it.
