I did a search/replace with MS Word. Came up with 2700 colonsOriginally Posted by Darrel Taylor
With 64k in 2100 lines, there's just too many colons to "Optimize".
If I don't have to kill any trees. I'd take a look.

Maybe I'll clean it up a bit and tack it onto the end of that other optimzation thread...
Well, let me rephrase that a bit...
I didn't blow it up...it blew itself up!
Amazing chain of events...
As far as I can tell:
Starter gear hung up in the 'start' position, chewed up the flywheel gear, bits and pieces flew out, parts got hung up on the governor shaft, got the engine stuck on high speed, over-revved it a bunch, broke a connecting rod, which flew out the side of the engine block, which must have bounced off the side cover and back onto the hydraulic pump drive shaft, which broke apart and flew up into the bottom of the battery causing it to spill acid everywhere. Also, the whole time the starter must have been trying to draw maximum current, which melted the main wiring harness and a few other things.
The whole time (only about 10-15 seconds), I'm standing about 25 feet away waiting for the whole thing to stop...
I'm a fairly meticulous maintainer of pieces/parts...but I think somehow this was completely beyond my control... (I should've let the wife do the driveway that day, that way I could blame it all on her).
