Theft of Bandwidth - eBay - Humorous!

[Harry]

A person selling an McCormick Deering M engine on eBay seemed intent on attaching one of my audio files to his auction page. First he chose the famous file and after I changed it to an alarm recording, he took it off. Next, he chose my Witte audio file.

When you link to someone else's audio file on the internet, you never know what will really end up in that file. This is THEFT of bandwidth - using another person's server to dish out pictures, graphics, or audio files for your own benefit. Not nice!

Edit: eBay finally took notice and removed the 3735715447 auction page. Fun's over, but you can still "hear" the six cycle GAS engine by clicking on the eBay numbers.

WOW! Just clicked the link and heard his engine run! I was laughing so hard that now everyone in my office has confirmed the rumor that I am insane! Great Job, you just made my day!

OH MAN!! that is just way to funny. Same thing started laughing out loud in the office and everyone had to come see. Harry, You are GOOD!!

Now that's a GAS engine!!

That's beautifull!!!

I would say his engine is "Sputtering" a little.

Harry, I hope you don't make this guy famous like the guy that was selling the wedding dress on Ebay a while back.

Harry: Dag Gone it, I just Bought a Fuller Johnson Engine. If thats how they sound you will soon see it on ebay to. But i am hoping its just a little extra lash in the valves that a rocker adjustment would clear things right up.

Harry that was great I'm wondering tho if thats the sound with a muffler or without

Heres something interesting to note, besides BSing everyone about how the engine sounds by stealing a sound file from Harry, he states the engine is a 1924 but according to the serial number it is a 1929, and I am also curious about the "RUBBER" diaphram that he replaced in the carb What rubber diaphram I might be nuts but I have never seen one of those in there anywhere. And I think his engine sounds like crap.

Harry That is great! Thats what happens when ya give it too much gas ! I like the added new spark plug WIRES and wilco mag too. BobRR

and a Wilco Magneto type EK 34216, I have been going to old engine shows from the Mid -west to Florida for the last 20 year

I like the above statement from his ad! never seen a wilco mag????????

Harry...Your the Man !!!!!!!!! Great job.

Harry You have out done yourself on this one. You must have stayed up all night comming up with that. Best laugh I have had on the stack in A long time. allen

Too cool, not much else to say. David.

I see it has a new owner. At least he got to hear it run before he bought it. I am wondering if that was a desiding factor for him or not. It certainly was Hiting and I never did hear a Miss in it.

Way to go Harry, sock it to them.. Do what ever you have to do to keep this page up and running. Jesse Z.

My ribs hurt from laughing so much...that was PRICELESS!!! Good job Harry!

HAHAHAHA!!!! I love it!!! It sounds like an old Allis Chalmers that we once had. :-) YOU MADE MY DAY HARRY!!!

BEAUTIFUL - SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL !!! You do nice work Harry. Now if only you could hit em with theft of services, after all thats what you are charged with here in NJ, when you steal gas!!! Andrew

Harry PLEASE SAVE THAT ALONG WITH YOUR ENGINE PICS/SOUNDS OF YOUR ENGIENS AND USE THAT MORONS INFORMATION ON THE ENGIEN (Do unto others as you would have them do unto you ) Second of all, thanks to you my side is hurting real hard! (It was worth it!)

Thanks Harry (please save it!)
