So, a random question. I spent the better part of yesterday trying to put my first 2-stroke engine on my mountain bike. I noticed that the engine has a pretty strong "metalic/oil engine smell". Yesterday evening I was working on my bike and noticed I was starting to get a slight headache, and my stomach felt slightly funny. I decided to call it quits and clean my stuff up but upon standing up and walking around I began to feel even worse. It wasn't long before I lost my dinner , but afterward I felt pretty normal.
I normally am not affected by smells, and I rarely get to the point of vomiting. Has anyone else ever been affected by the engine's smells while working on them?
Mate,petrol smells good, but don't sniff it for too long....
I love the smell of 2 stroke
but people who charge heaps suck, Tell em their dreaming!
