[SEL] FMZ Gear and Timing questions.

[Judge Tommy Turner]

Well, maybe its a 2 to 1 ratio in reverse.  The crank gear has 102 teeth and 
the engine is actually a 1/2 cycle?

Just kidding folks before someone believes me.  I remember posting once that 
I was going to unstick an engine by filling the cylinder full of popcorn, 
putting the head back on and then lighting a fire in the hopper.  The 
popping corn would expand and "pop" the cylinder loose.  I had a person 
seriously contact me and asked how it worked as they might try it......
