You could run the motor on the bench, running for a set amount of time for a-b-a-b-a testing. Although your neighbors may prefer if you were to cut the lawn..
Hi ecomodded,
When you add water or steam the flame speed slows including increased ignition delay. You'd need to be able to advance the timing, which I can't do on any of my small 4 strokers. Is there a way?
