  3. Az eye recall the diesel engine twaz a horizontal single cylinder

    the operator turned the flywheel to just past TDC

    a copper plug @ top of cylinder head twaz heated by useing a blow torch th@ normally twaz used to strip paint off the outside of house

    or a modern propane gas heater, after bout 5 minutes of heatin the copper plug a shotgun type cartridgr with out shot twaz loaded into

    cartridge holder n locked down then a hammer twaz used to hit the center bolt th@ hit the detinator in said cartridge

    Where by the force sent the piston on its way, and the old beast came to life @ a speed U could count each firing of the diesel fuel

    LOL

    I've never ever had a set up like the swan neck

    I have only seen m bein used

    the Tail gate is called a 2 way it will swing like a barn door or tilt out @ the bottom

    just by removeing/replacing pin @ hinges

    the swan neck I did C twaz on a sub frome th@ slipt into tippr body n twas held in there by the truck rear tow hook jiggr

    they lift the body to raise the swan neck then lower landin legs then lower the body till no weight on body to slide the subframe from the tippr body etc

    or just wind down the landin legs on trailer

    the advantage of this set up it duz not take weight from the front axle like a tag trailer would
