Dropped another video onto youtube for you guys. 1911 engine, rebuilt by me about 2008/2009. This is start #2. If you think you know how this is possible drop a note in the comments - "old guys" please don't spoil it for the ones guessing, could be some interesting answers!

Free start for a correctly tuned rebuild. Probably not the initial start. I like the timer control on the test stand!
