Default RE: Small gassers not worth the investment!

ORIGINAL: Antique

Tried and discarded many years ago by Briggs and Stratton for some lawnmower engines...
Perhaps the large progress made in materials in the intervening years might change things a bit. Also Briggs and Stratton was not known for innovation. ( my spell checker wants to change Stratton to castration)

edit:
Take a look at this:

Research is going on. Piezoelectric transformers might make real small gas engines practical.
