1st, I know nothing about the proper operation of a hit an miss engine. How, why and what of their design.
I am aware however, from reading that they are supposed to maintain a load if applied to them
I just watched Jin from Microcosm new vertical version engine in a boat, and it almost seemed like it had a working throttle. The engine speeded up significantly, as well as slowed down again. I asked how is this engine throttled? Another viewer commented "changing the prop pitch".
So in other words, it was putting a load on the engine and the engine speeded up quite dramatically.
My engine, on the other hand, with a light load as in barely putting a finger against the flywheel, will pop pop a tiny bit faster a few times more, slow down and stall out.
What is wrong with my engine? How do I fix it so that it speeds up under a load?
Thank you.
