Timing issue
« on: June 13, 2020, 08:10:46 pm »
While running the Clarkson last night I was adjusting the timing .
I ended up with a fixed cylinder ,slide valve oscillating crankshaft engine
Yes i know i held the Phone wrong But there is no trickery involved.



Cheers
Dennis

As a guess, Dennis is perfectly capable of making that engine roll over, sit up, wag it's tail, speak, and without a doubt he could also make it play dead.

He did after all, bring it to life in the first place!!!
