I think the point is more to show the engine loading up and working. More of demonstrating the torque in the old girl than truly trying to make it stop.
Typrus is correct, but if you'd want to stop it, in case of a runaway for example, you can plug the air intake that sits between the flywheels in the back of the crank case. It's a spring loaded leather valve 🙂 Take a look here on another engine intake valve th-cam.com/video/WADhpqHISX4/w-d-xo.html
Power: minimal by modern standards.
Torque: yes.
The legends say that the engine is running to this day.
Like that snappy exhaust note 👍👍🇺🇸
Sounds great!
Is there a single point were it breathes the air in you could plug up and stop it that way?
