What's your cylinder index?

In other words, how much internal combustion do you have around?

I'll start
***************
non automotive active

Wheel Horse Tractor
Lawnmower
Wheeled string trimmer
Wood chipper
chain saw
************
automotive active

Dodge minivan
E350 based RV

*******
non automotive inactive

2 Wheel Horse tractors -- one being rebuilt
string trimmer

***********
automotove inactive

85 Ranger
84 Fiero

***********
We could make this more complicated ( number of cylinders, displacement, etc), but that's probably too much.

Whattdoyagot?

So this is a how many cylinders ya got eh?

Truck 8cyl
car 8cyl
van 6 cyl
Ford 260 V8 on engine stand 8cyl
Turbo bike 4 cyl
tractor 2 cyl
scooter 1 cyl but this one belongs to the kid, he is starting his own cylinder index.
0.35 airplane engine, this is the kids too. 1 cyl
mower 1 cyl
weedwhacker 1 cycl
blower 1 cyl
tiller 1 cyl
2 generators 2 cyl
now we get into the tiny stuff...
4x4 RC car 1 cyl
RC racer 1 cyl
0.5 engine 1 cyl
0.25 engine 1 cyl
0.4 engine 1 cyl
2 Wenmac airplane engines .049 2cyl
3 *** airplane engines .049 3 cyl
1 Pre WWII Imperial airplane engine .049 1 cyl
1 0.019 Wasp engine 1 cyl
2 *** 0.010 airplane engines 2 cyl

Oh forgot the chain saw 1cyl
Pressure washer 1 cyl
Chipper shredder 1 cyl
every cylinder counts

Didn't count my air compressors, 6 cyl in all, since they are not internal combustion.

So I have an index of 59 and almost all of them run with synthetic oils.

Wonder what it would be like to fire them all up at the same time?
