I saw Banggood's video on it a couple days ago.


Interesting little engine and I agree it is a 2 cycle.


I wasn't interested enough to buy one but who knows? One day I might need one!


I did just order (pre-order) Jin's new vertical hit and miss engine.

Why the 2 cylinders? Is one just to act as a water pump?

I think the driven cylinder pushes fuel and air into the power cylinder and may help with exhaust extraction too. (a little like a Reid oilfield engine)

Gil,

Do you have any information on the vertical engine they are offering?
