Extereme low idle wmb engine

My entry to gasman7777 "how low can you go?" low engine idle challange. This is a 40's briggs and stratton model wmb washing machine engine. It burns a little oil but as you can see it runs just fine. i tried to count the power strokes and got about 36 in ten sec.36X6 = 216r.p.m. roughly! MY FAVORITE ENGINE!

Actually thats around 432 RPM If im figuring right/

36 power strokes per 10 seconds

2 Crankshaft rotations per 4 cycles

36 X 2 = 72 X10 = 432

Yea I caught but for got to edit it, I was doing the math for a 2 stroke.

I used to be into high revving engines but I do enjoy a slow running one now its so relaxing, I perticularly like the hit and miss engines.
