GBS has explained it the way I learned it. An engine is a device to power a machine to do a job. whatever starts the engine gets the machine to start doing the job. Sometimes a complete inspection and overhaul can't be justified if a shot of evil does the trick- a $2 can will start something? 100? 200 times? I know an old Italian contractor that said 'what am I suppose to do? Pay a man -or 2, 20 or 30 bucks an hour to stand there and analize the weather on a cold winter morning?
