I love to listen to them. I used to have a link that gave very short clips of them running, only a few revs each but...

I don't have one but if I did I'd fire it up just here it run...

If you have broadband give this a listen...

I like the hit and miss engines. I am also kind of partial to these.

Those sound nice!!

I sometimes Google Diesel Engines India. They have many different plants making Lister/Petter type engines and I enjoy just looking at the pictures.

Hmm...did not notice that when I revived the thread. There were pictures, I do remember seeing them when the OP started the thread.

My brother and I owned an old one yard concete mixer with an IH hit-and-miss engine. It helped put me through college in the 60s. Our lunch would be hot dogs boiled in the "cooling" water.

Gives a new meaning to "dirty water dog". Scary but I think your method might be preferable to some of the roadside "eateries" I have seen.

Boiling water in cast iron, what could be wrong with that... A little concrete dust for seasoning, sounds like a good lunch...
