As someone just thinking about starting a rebuild on my lawn mower engine, I find this one of the most fascinating things I have seen in a long time. What the hell were they trying to burn in that thing?

Fuck me no! Large engines are the greatest. It's self mocking.

I am a steam/boat/plane/diesel/electric geek fan. The worst kind.

This is one of my major unfulfilled dreams.
