Check this out.
My Dad and I were unrigging his boat in the boat house. We decide it's time to put the boat on the trailer and pull it into the shop so we paddle it to the ramp which is only a few hundred feet away from the boat house.
When we get to the ramp, I look back and enjoyed the rainbow trail of gas and oil we had left. This, with an engine that hadn't run since last fall. It was so pretty. :D

I once started a 55 hp Homlite/Bearcat by pull starting it the "wrong" direction. It must of kicked back just right to run.....cause 3 of us pulled on it for what seemed like hours.
