I just got a mini cam, it's about as big as my thumb, anything on a 750 Honda you guys need to see in operation?

Maybe can do points and chain. Install a window in your combustion chamber and I'll record it!

Nice carb shots and yes Sam I've seen film of combustion process before, if I remember correctly it was of an A/C engine and it was from when I got training as a fitter.

I have a little gadget called a Gunson Colortune. It's basically a see through sparkplug that lets you see combustion as your engine is running. Great tool for setting your mixture too.

I think orange is too rich. Bunsen blue just right. Whitish blue too lean.

Awesome video Sam!!! It's the internal combustion equivalent of watching electrons flowing into and out of an ignition coil. Got to go watch it again, and again....
Thanks! ;D
