Well, that’s not encouraging. The best I’ve managed is some backfiring, which gets pretty exciting when you are directly attached to the flywheel with a rope.
On the plus side, I think I solved the mystery of what year the motor was manufactured. It appears that the MS47D was only used on the Master Twin in 1941. That would make this one of the last Master Twins produced, which may explain why there is no serial or model number stamped on the rope sheave.
