Testing running the crude oil engine backwards. It's quite easy to change rotation on them. Here we call them "transportable" engines, when mounted on to a trolley. The idea was to transport them between the farms, and to do various jobs, like crushing stones (stone crusher), threshing, saw logs among other things. These bigger engines were more common in saw mills.
