Being a 2 stroke , they certainly have a sound of their own . I used to drive an Atkinson with an 892TTA @ 475hp . Man it had some power , back in the 80's it was awsome .
Before I started with the Operating Engineers I was a mechanic working for the Allis Chalmers dealership in Bakersfield. They were the dirtiest engine I ever worked on. I am sure it was because they were a two stroke. The dirt was not just dirty oil, it has a very high soot quality to it
