[SEL] Old iron to the rescue!

[Ed Herreid]

Thats great Mike.  Are you the merit badge counselor?  
 
Jacob took the Regimota / New Holland model engine to school for a demonstration speech.  I warned him about engines and their ability to show their true colors and be a pain to start in front of a crowd.  He said it started and ran perfectly at the first flip of the flywheels.  I guess I gotta get some lessons from him before I dispense any more advise.
