<p>Yeah, as long as it isn't a BIG moose, unless it is a downhill
pull all the way. 😁</p>

Being used as a moose puller, I think MP is more appropriate. MP
stands for Moose (it can) Pull. Clearly this thing could only be
1MP.

<div>Using SAE values: if this engine of 24 cu in
displacement was capable of 1 ft-lb torque per cu in (a
good rule of thumb for modern engines) at 3000rpm it
would be making 13.7 HP. I'd bet torque is not up to
modern standards and peaks well below 3000rpm, so 8.9PS
(=8.8HP) seems the best guess; whereas 8.9KW is over
11HP.<br>

several things and can be used in several ways. One
meaning is the height that a horse can jump. Several
meanings are for “POWER” of various types, including
mechanical. So I would assume that the 8.9 means 8.9
horsepower.

<div dir="ltr">I wondered the
same thing, Phil. "Puissance" is
Power and the dataplate gives 8.9 with
no units. Now IF the correct units
are KW, that converts to 11.9HP.
Another guess at units would be PS
("PferdStarke") aka "metric
horsepower" amd 8.9PS converts to
8.8HP.

<div>"Alesage" is bore, so maybe
"course" is stroke. The numbers in

appears to match the stated
"Cylindree" of 400; I guess this is
a single-cylinder engine. <br>
