 Kickback!
A kickback is a case in which a cylinder of your engine fires before the piston reaches TDC (top-dead-center) and the piston tries to go backward.
Kickbacks can be momentary: Cylinders 1, 3 and 4 do the right thing and keep the prop going the right direction, but that #2 cylinder trying to go the wrong way sends a shocking impact to the whole engine and especially accessories - most namely, the STARTER.
This type of system relies on a set of points on one of the magnetos that is set to fire at or after TDC and a vibrator system to generate multiple high-voltage sparks when this set of points is enabled.

 The Comics Journal - Kickback
In David Lloyd's new crime thriller Kickback, Joe Canelli is a cop on the take, just like every other cop in Franklin City.
His art is moody and evocative, composed of shadows as much as shapes, and his ability to frame an image for dramatic effect is second to none.
Alan Moore took full advantage of Lloyd's skill set when he illustrated the dystopian thriller V for Vendetta, but as Kickback effectively demonstrates, Lloyd can pull it off quite nicely even without the direction of fancy, critically acclaimed writers, thank-you-very-much.

 Government Takes Aim At Kickback Schemes
It's one of American real estate's seamier practices, and it's almost impossible for consumers to detect: kickbacks and sweetheart payoffs among real estate agents, title and escrow companies, lawyers, and lenders, all for referrals of home buyers' mortgage or closing services.
In the Prudential case, real estate agents who referred at least $1 million in new mortgage business to Wells Fargo Home Mortgage Hawaii LLC allegedly were given free trips to Thailand and Las Vegas, and even a free three-year lease of a Mercedes-Benz.
For decades, kickback prohibitions were largely ignored by the industry, in large part because the federal agency enforcing the law mounted only minimal efforts.
