I like the way that the exhaust valve definitively ends the combustion event.
Fascinatin stuff, this here internal combustion engine, someone ought to design one for a bicycle or one them auto mobile things.

Does it actually "end" the combustion reaction, or does the reaction continue in the exhaust system?

I enjoyed seeing the "wasted spark" from the magneto system. I always thought there would be a LITTLE occasional combustion event from those setups, but not here. Thanks for sharing!

I meant that it defines the end of the pressure pulse. I loved how the flow changed direction at the opening of the exhaust valve.

A testament to the engineering that it can still drive.

Well, I was doing fine all the way to No Cylinder Head Deflectors. There are no cylinder head deflectors.
Wish I could work that quickly.
