World's smallest V12 engine

Amazing work! Proof that there is no such thing as too much leisure time. :)
Music is distracting though...

Is it really an engine or is it just turned by compressed air?
Perhaps it's a diesel of some sort?
I don't see much in the way of mixture control, (injection) or ignition.
I probably missed something.

I love it when people turn to creativity in boredom, as opposed to just constantly spilling their political (or religious) guts all over the Internet. This guy - the tiny engine builder guy - THIS GUY is inspiring.

Is that thing running on fuel? HOw is it cooled? Air? I saw no lubrication system either?

Amazing. Totally.
 
It has an air filter and manifolds, and I think the devices at the front are coolant pumps and a coolant tank (google translation). Not sure how the system is supposed to actually work though.
Lubrication is by the old "drops from an oil can occasionally" method I think. :)

I don't think it's actually an engine but it still earns 4 stars from me. :)
I'd like to be wrong but it really doesn't matter that much.
