Need help identifying needle valves

Need help identifying needle valves
Does anyone know what engines they are for? The two in packaging seem to have female threads and the unpackaged one does not seem to a Cox-size thread.

Bernie: The first one looks like a McCoy-Testors or a O.K. Cub needle. Or maybe Wenmac. I would wait for Mudhen or Rusty to reply. They are the pros.
If the 3rd one has a flex spring it may be an Atwood needle. One of the Atwood designers worked for Cox for a while. It looks like the one I had on my Atwood-Wenmac Outboard Marine Engine.

Re: Need help identifying needle valves
I would suggest that the first is either Atwood Wasp etc. or Holland Hornet. Definitely not OK Cub and incorrect knob design for Testors/Wen Mac .049.
The middle picture, having an internal thread, looks more like OK Cub. The third one just looks like a sprung version of number 2.

Rod: I have had a couple of McCoy Testors engines with a very similar needle to the 1st picture. That's the only reason I said McCoy testors, and the 3rd on is very similar to the Atwood marine needle which flexed in the middle. Could be someone used a different 0-80 needle on the Atwood. And none of the several wasps I had used a needle with a plastic knob attached.
happydad something happens when you get old, but... I can't remember what it is. anon.

Re: Need help identifying needle valves
Thanks for the replies.
We have some OK Cubs and Testors at the office and I will check on Monday.
This is another needle we inherited:
http://coxengines.ca/cox-.15-conquest-rc-needle-valve.html
which someone identified as being for the Conquest engine, although the Conquest we have at the office seems to have a smaller knob. But hey, the needle fits.
