I really beasted this saw today and it seemed to run like a champ! It'll do for now.

Not bad for free parts and an hour or so smashing some other old left overs together.

Yeah - water injection is a method to reduce cylinder temperatures and detonation.

Yeah, and bitty-bits of water remain intact in a HEAT engine at 9000 rpm under load, retaining sufficient mechanical integrity to silently micro-machine metal.

If anyone buys that, you'll know you've hooked one. Haul him in and get the fillet knife.
