The similar Maytags we played with in my youth weren't hit-n-miss. They were the same as yours and ran constantly just like the generator motor.

They were single cylinder used on washing machines. We used them to power a 'go cart'. We didn't have any hit-n-miss engines like yours but many neighbors did.
