I have acquired a model stationary engine with a name plate calling it "Quintet".
It has five oscillating cylinders with all five pistons linked to a central crank.  Before I attempt any restoration, I would like to obtain information about the design and if possible, plans of this particular engine. Can anone out the help please ?
