I have a post ( deux chevaux) on the "non vw projects" of a friend's 2CV. Back in the 60's , he purchased a 1957 DKW Monza at a Toronto car lot- the same make and model (talking about the car) in the above photo. Another power house sporting a 900cc. 3cyl. 4speed. These were 2 cycle engines and one of the sales pitches was they claimed that because the 2 stroke fires on every revolution as opposed to every second revolution of a 4 stroke , the 3 cylinder is just like a 6 cylinder. Wikipedia has an interesting write up of the short but glamourous life of the Monza. Marty said one of the problems with the car was when you were fueling up , you had to remember to mix your gas.

My 2 stroke Saab has a spring with a tag on the gas cap that tells the user to not forget the oil with every fill-up   |
