Fairbanks Morse ZC three horsepower start up and run

Replaced the piston, rings, and connecting rod. No more clank! The other wrist pin had the slightest amount of free-play and made it clank while running.

Throttle-governed engines like this one will run much better with a load on them. They were not designed to just sit and idle like this, that's why it has a lot of misfires and missing. I need to get my fan set up to apply a good load to it...
