Basic Q power - strictly utilitarian.  I like it, but recognize it is an aquired taste.

Now if I've got this figured right, the funnel under the oil spout catches drips/spillage from the spout and  runs it 150 feet underground to the an outlet near the photographers feet.  Have I got that right?

I always liked Q engines.  You couldn't drive around Illinois without running into one of their "peavines" with a homely little engine working it.  Loved their whistles.  Maybe it is an acquired taste, but I like it.

I agree. Something very distinctive about Q engines.
