This paragraph from Herbert Clark's 1911 publication regarding controlling speed of two cycle engines is of interest.

BCM, thanks for posting this info. I learned about the two cycle engines running much hotter when retarding the timing to slow the Rpm on my Detroit stationary engines a few years back. I would adjust the governors on them to slow the engine while trying to leave the timer lever at 12 clock. They have no throttle control like most marine engines. |
