 Years ago my car club attended a combination car and steam show, there was a hit and miss engine running all day, when we were about to leave, I commented DANG! you'd think that guy would have gotten that Harley started by now. I'd bet his leg is really tired.

 I still get quoted for that one.

Don, have you ever see a person at one of those County Fairs where they have the 'hit or miss' engines;do they ever hook one up to power/turn some resistance,like run a rotortiller or some other type thing. Do they still chug.., then idle? or run full-on ?

 My cousin and her husband make ice cream with them, it takes shafts and gear drives. It looks crazy but it does put a small load on the engine, it does hit more often but still misses too. Maybe a big load would have one hitting every time. The flywheel is the secret.
