    Not an awful lot without a huge fan (air cooling) I'd imagine... And from the sound of the tickover at about 18 seconds I'd say it took none of it :(

    You should NEVER subject ANY Small Engine to Red Lined rpm's ... without being Under LOAD!

    You risk:
    • Throwing a Connecting Rod.
    • Spinning a Bearing. (Having a Big-end Bearing Half-shell dislodge and exposing the Crankshaft Journal and Big-end Cap to metal-to-metal contact.
