Hahahahaha! LOL
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Thats how they did the old boats, before reduction gears. You had to time it just right though. If you misguaged it, you just killed your engine with the boat still headed for the dock!If you could get them to though....
Would be good for rail service. They have old single pistion inspection cars, you would kill the ignition, flip a lever to reverse the timing, then on the very last compression stroke of the engine, turn the ignition back on and it would run in reverse, then you could go back.
Could get a deucomotive! all gears forward and back. Could you tie in an electric pump, like what lots of guys did for prelubers?
It's impossible for the multifuel to run backwards because the tachometer only runs forward. Lol.I was about to indicate that soon a whole bunch of shadetree mechanics were going to appear and explain with great specificity why the multifuel CAN'T run backwards. You beat me to it. I'm also on the shortlist of folks who have run their multifuel backwards. If any naysayers want to stop by with their title, I'll light mine up backwards so you can see!
I believe it would become an afterburner. To get the deuce supersonic.Flame heater make cold air?
We get it, advertisements are annoying!
