I agree MM and Lewis, fantastic engines. That large flywheel is great.
I think mine needs a bit more running in before I can get it to tick over on it's slowest setting. Here's a vid of mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3dEcUcVd_k Note the homemade meths burner
Where's a vid of yours with the workshop Lewis??

With a bit of running in the SP5 now ticks over nicely and flicks from forwards to backwards very nicely :
