Hi Jazz,

I like your avatar but shouldn't the pistons fire each time they reach the top? Each cylinder misses each once a cycle....

That's not happens in real life is it? :?

yup ....that is why they are called 4 strokes.........a firing cycle every 4 strokes.

even the valve animation is correct

I knew what a 4 stroke was, well I thought I did, but actually seeing it makes it more clear.

Seems like a wasted opportunity to me!

I prefer the smooth relaxed delivery of the fore stroke, far preferable over all that messy frenetic nonsense where everything happens far too quickly and makes yer eyes bulge

:confused w/e - well endowed :confused

sorry, spent too much time on dating sites.
once couldn't think of a user name so i decided to call myself Henry's Cat, after the cartoon character.
but the site didn't allow caps, apostrophes or spaces so it read henryscat.
i kept getting very strange messages for some reason... :think:
