That was a lot! thanks. my father used to mix old rancid french butter and cooking oil in what we could by for diesel oil and the thing ran and provided us with power to saw. He said it extended the life of the fuel and the engine. sawed a lot of logs with a similar machine.

Talk about a sweet sound! Why do the intake tappets move with an extra movement up and down, is the cam worn? The cam has probably earned the right! If you watch carefully you can see the two intake cams moving twice for each cycle. Is it designed in?

i kindof understand but im still a bit confused how it "fires", so its got basicly a built in shark plug, or is it like a light bulb coil or somthing?

is valve clearance moved when running instead of a throttle?

Very, very nice but I see no spark plugs or injectors. Is it spark or compression-ignition?

[41Zman]

A set of points like what is commonly found in a car is placed in the cylinder and makes a spark igniting the fuel. one point is insualted and does not move while the other point moves. The little arms that flick the ignitor thus moving the point and making the spark.
