H74 abuse
« on: December 26, 2021, 01:41:09 am »
An H74 video that was difficult to watch…  https://tinyurl.com/yw6bnu8x 

One or two finger taps over the intake as a choke would have fired it up quicker.

No water appears to be circulating through the cylinder sleeves. It seems to be dripping from the drain hose onto the wood base.

If no oil was added to the naphtha fuel, with those revs that burst of smoke may have smelled like burning o-rings.

Watch the H75 engines on eBay. I got one for $475 less than what Stirlingkit is getting on the website.

May have been the one I got. It was sitting at $850, so I put $860 on it and got it. Thought I would get outbid for sure. Lol
