    Dang !! That engine smokes almost as bad as my 1978 Peugeot moped. I take it is "2 cycle" , or at least the Wankel version of 2 cycle ?

    Hello.

    The shots of the mobile home add just the right touch.

    Huh, I though it was penguins who blew the seals...
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Modern snow machines are amazingly quiet. The old ones were loud. Did you ever drive one ? If not give it a try. It's an awesome ride.
    Oh, I'm sure it's fun for anyone riding on one. To others.....well..... And, of course NOBODY ever takes a muffler off a quiet one to make it a LOUD one, right?

    Wankel's are by definition 2-stroke. Don't recall ever seeing one smoke in a Mazda unless the seals were dead, though.

    Well, my old 2 cycle moped smokes like a chimney but thats only when it hasn't been run for a long time and its burnin out old gas & oil and its a regular 2 cycle 50 cc piston engine. I agree, I never saw a wankel smoke like that unless the seals were toast. A friend of mine had a Wankel in an old Triumph Spitfire and that engine used to SCREAMMMMMM !!. It delivered a loit of power and acceleration. It. never smoked though.
