a very strange combination of stuff.............
seems the front suspension is cuore and the rear is piaggio.
the engine is mostly under the cover (the one on the left in picture 07)
the distributor may have nd on it (nippon denso).
if the engine is daihatsu its turned over with some kind of piaggio cooling system.

a very strange combination of parts.
the distributor absolutely is one like used on the older daihatsu models (probably you wil find ND on it somewhere for nippondenso.)
the carburettor also was used on the old daihatsu models (2 cilinder cuore)
guess that the gearbox is a mix too.
i guess that the best way to go is clean it and get the thing running.
there is little difficult stuff, its just an italian engine with a lot of daihatsu parts.
any italian that is in the agricultural machines knows this engine.
proceed with taking apart what you need and use the fact that nowadays there are digital cameras and make pics.
a lot of pics and then more.

Engine is runing, only problem I have is difficulties witch switching gears. Clatch seems to work fine.
If this engine is known, could You write which oil I should fill to the engine (standard mineral 15W40 or something other)?
