The term 'box of frogs' springs to mind

Very clever though

Bit slow i thought

I was thinking more like: "another crazy English guy with too much time spent in his garage over a rainy winter", but that hits a little too close to home for most on here.

hows the flame sucker engine work then ?

On the induction stroke is pulls in the hot gas from the flame. This gas then cools, which sucks the piston back up again ready for the next induction stroke.

Works well, until the cooling fins get too hot to cool the charge down.
