Define Tecumseh Meaning

1.) Gen. Sherman's middle name.
2.) The great Shawnee leader who rose to power to lead the Native tribes of the Old Northwest (Midwest today)against continued pressure by the Army, frontiersmen, and new settlers. He is most well-known for his efforts during the War of 1812, in which he fought a series of engagements with the US Army in battles such as The Thames in Canada. He was eventually killed in 1813, and was a martyr to many Native Americans.

Tecumseh was a manufacture of air cooled small engines used on equipment such as lawn mowers, generators, and snow blowers. These engines were very popular on snow blowers and push mowers on all makes and models up and were in direct competition with Briggs and Stratton, Kohler, Honda, and Kawasaki.

Early models of engines rivaled that of Briggs and Stratton, and were considered to be a good engine. However by the late 1990s, Tecumseh's reputation had been tarnished by the fact that their later engine designs have been less than perfect. The most common problems with these engines was a poorly designed carburetor and some models had weak connecting rods. They are somewhat unloved because of these faults which caused Tecumseh to file for bankruptcy in 2008 and production of engines was seized.

These engines were very easy to work on compared to a Briggs and Stratton's at the time and they could last a long time if the oil was checked and changed regularly. Tecumseh engines were a popular choice for go karts and mini bikes, and engines can still be found today in limited quantity for cheap. Today, people either love them or hate them, depending on your experience.

Tecumseh engines can still be found today under the LCT (Liquid Combustion Technology) brand that mainly produces engines for snow blowers. These new engines are essentially Chinese Honda clones.

A sexual position in which one participant kneels over (usually a female)with their face low to the ground, and their anus in the air, much like "presenting". The other participant then masturbates, ejaculating on their own big toe. The foot is then pulled back and forcefully inserted into the other participant, implanting the big toe firmly in the anus. This is best done by curling all of the other toes under, so that the big toe is prominent, thereby ensuring maximum penetration. This can be used as a punishment or as a way to "let the bitch know it's time to go".
