This engine is not very dissimilar from a Fairbanks-Morse "Z" engine.

Yes, this is a throttler. They are much more common in the UK than here in the USA. During WW1 gasoline (petrol) was scarce and cheaper kerosene (paraffin) was burnt in these engines. The kero requires a much hotter engine to burn so the engine fires every cycle. Hit & miss would never get hot enough to burn the kero efficiently. The hit & miss governor holds the exhaust valve open so the cylinder air just goes in & out the muffler.

Thanks for your help, but 'hit and miss' is still mentioned. Does the hit and miss do exactly that?
Thanks for your time.

This is obviously a throttle governed engine. It is built similar to a hit and miss engine except that this one does not stop firing. Instead the governer adjusts what RPM it runs. The smoke is obviously from either a bad fuel air mixture or the engine is just long on days. Most likely it is worn out and needs an overhaul.

Once again I'm completely puzzled by how these old 'one lungers' governed themselves. Does the moter simply miss power strokes? Is unburned fuel being exhausted? I see plenty of smoke.

hi there nice engine is it running on parrafin or petrol

It's running on paraffin when the video was taken. It tends to smoke a bit more because it's not under load and therefore does not get so hot to burn the fuel.
