Right, here we are, a decent run with no fire to put out, or excessive waterfalls/fountains.
Videos are too dark, they were already too dark, then got much worse with the photobucket encoding.
Running fast (it did go faster)
Running slow
Running slow and fast and slow again

A bit dark, but still nice see these baby's running, Chris. I have a PW203, but
I've been slow getting around to fix it up. Your vid gives me some incentive! _________________ -Chuck

It was a bargain price for that engine! Ive seen them do well over 80 unboxed . Its a lovely engine Chris! Can't think of anything better for your first stationary...well maybe an SE3  _________________ Solid Fuel tablets explode

I was waiting to buy a stationary until I saw something that appealed that I could afford. Would have liked an SE3 but they always seem to fetch so much money, and was very tempted by an SP5.
Figured with this that if I didn't like it I could sell it and make a bit of money on it...but I think I will keep hold of it for a while now.

Not a bad plan Chris if you like it then keep it.
SP5 is a good engine very fast runner  _________________ Solid Fuel tablets explode

| If I had one of those I'd keep it forever. They're a classic engine! |

Will do a better vid outside on a nice day and rig it up to the mamod workshop.
It is pretty powerful. Will be interesting to see what you think of your Luton when it arrives. _________________ Chris

Great engine -- good videos but a bit dark as you said. Look forward to some more vidoes. We would like something special enough to video --
