  Thanks Jim.
  I had a lot of trouble posting the pics however. First they were there, then not, then small etc. I kept trying to
  Use the modify feature, but never got it right. What's the best way to post multiple full size pics?

  2 click this to add second, third and up to fourth image in the one post.

• Nick, you don't have one?? Fodens are fabulous. I think mine was unfired when I got it off eBay. Really good deal if I remember. I fired it but ironically didn't drive it yet.

  Nope, I came to the point where I had too many Mamods and told myself "no more", but Paul is not making this an easy rule to follow

  Mamods might not be the most sophisticated engines but they are fun.

• Oh, I agree that it's a fun engine, just that my shelves are beyond full and these take up a lot of space

• Thanks guys for all your replies. I enjoyed the video too. I bought a blue SW1 in December and
  fired it but I didn't get it run as well as yours did in your video.
