>>>Oh, I've got a camera that can easily do that job already.   I must 
admit, I'd be fascinated to see that too.   I'll try to remember to do that!

Even without the gear drive, I think it would be fascinating to see the 
fuel pump eccentric at work.

One thought--what does the oil flow pattern do?   I'd hate to turn the key 
and coat my entire interior with oil!
