For fun I put one on the test stand the other day and It probably the finest running glow 4 stroke I have ever operated.. The induction and fuel systems are true genius.

Any thoughts on how they would convert...
I really would not know how that ingenious fuel pressurizing system would work out on gas, since it contains YS specific parts made out of silicone, for which I would not know an alternative.

The engines themselves should be fine on it, albeit due to their "supercharging" they might benefit from high octane rating fuel.

I have never owned an YS and my budget won't allow me to in the foreseeable future...
