Hi Kevin,

When I was a wee lad of 6 or 7 years, I used to pull those things apart and put 'em back together just to get their two-stroke "operation" locked in my brain.

They are undoubtedly the simplest engine ever designed by mankind. You can make your gaskets out of plain old gasket material, run the oil/gas mix at about 14 to 1, clean the breathin' ports and ya can't keep the little stinkers from running. :>)

As I recall, their horsepower rating was about 1/8 horse or something like that? :>)
