originally they were used on mowers in the 1920's - 1930's on golf courses and estates of the wealthy

That thing is sweet....i dont really know what a hit and miss engine is...but it looks cool! I would like to mow my lawn with it! Probably would stop traffic!

@mickeydamon
a hit and miss engine fires every other four stroke cycle. every time it fires right after the rocker holds the exhaust valve open allowing the engine to coast until the speed reduces then fires again. on some engines they miss against compression or cut out the spark. there are some videos on here of the mowers in action.
