Warning

Just a warning to all members:

Do not drink too much lager and then decide to steam an engine. Do not do this in the kitchen. Do not ponder the steam escaping from the cylinder, then further more do not think it might be funny to lubricate said engine with washing up liquid instead of oil just to see if you get any bubbles.

But should you do this: No you don't get any bubbles, yes the engine does pick up in speed. Yes you do get a lemony fresh smell.

Another run with proper lubrication proves no damage done fortunately.

I'll certainly keep that in mind mate.

I'll stick to vodka and that might get some bubbles.

Yet another reason not to drink lager.

Real ale and malt whisky for me.
