That's a real buzzsaw of an engine you have there Charlie .... wonder what the top end you were getting in the video was.

Interesting question.  I have a tachometer that I have never used.  Sounds like a good excuse to try it out.  More to come...

Like that Charlie - I have looked at these engines for a few years now but never quite got round to buying one.  That is going to change!

Made from recycled materials. There is a full description in the YouTube Notes.

Apologies in advance for the blurry video. I forgot to change the camera to manual focus.
