A lubricating oil composition and method of operating a boosted internal combustion engine with reduced low-speed pre-ignition events and corrosion resistance. The oil composition includes a base oil, one or more overbased calcium sulfonate detergents, one or more overbased calcium phenate detergents, and one or more overbased magnesium-containing detergents. A ratio of ppm of calcium to TBN of the oil composition is less than 170; a ratio of ppm of magnesium to total soap content in wt. % is greater than 700; and there are limited amounts of boron and molybdenum, and all weight percentages and ppm values being based on the total weight of the oil composition. The compositions give low LSPI ratios and pass the Ball Rust test.

A handheld engine-driven working machine comprises an internal combustion engine and an ignition control device; wherein the ignition control device can switch its control between a normal mode and a operation mode, wherein during the operation mode, the ignition timing within the high speed range is maintained at a second BTDC angle, and the ignition timing within the medium speed range is advanced more than a third BTDC angle between a first BTDC angle and the second BTDC angle, and wherein at any rotational speed within the medium speed range, the ignition timing during the operation mode is advanced more than the ignition timing during the normal mode.

Video event recorders are coupled to a vehicle power source via an on-board diagnostic system including its power bus, data bus, and scanner port connector. Video event recorders are provided with a power input arranged in conjunction with a standard ODBII type D connector. Systems further include an extension cable between the connection and the vehicle event record to accommodate mounting needs associated with each. In advanced versions, both OBD power and data networks are coupled to the vehicle event recorded such that data relating to vehicle diagnostic systems can be captured in a triggered event along with video data. In addition, some versions are provided with special detection mechanism to determine the use state of a vehicle and adjust application of power accordingly. Thus an in-use detector is coupled to the vehicle and/or OBD systems to provide feedback which helps to conserve power and regulate the power connections.
