Yes of course your post says 1400 rpm. It was papaone who said 600 rpm. My mistake.

Still, that is exceptionally good. I assume the throttle response is amazing.

If the plug fires on every rotation, that certainly makes things easier from an electronic standpoint. That probably wouldn't work on a gasoline engine as any unburned gasoline could reignite and burn in the exhaust system. I guess this isn't a problem with methanol?
