| Dean W:
Yes, it's a good explanation of the burner, John. Thanks. Makes a nice soft flame, and is quiet, too. Being quiet is nice, as some are kind of loud. |
| saw:
You are making a wunderfull engine, the 8th wunder of the world? :lol: |
| Stilldrillin:
Crisp, clear explanation John. Lovely, gentle burner operation. :clap: A similar design would be perfect for the Robinson engine. Hmmmmm...... :thumbup: David D |

Thanks for the detailled explanation, John. I've always wondered why the flame doesn't travel back up the tube where the gas and air first mix... By the way, how difficult is it to blow out the flame with this type burner? Chuck |
| Bogstandard:
Gents, many thanks, but I think you must remember, I didn't design this burner, I just made it a lot easier and cheaper to make than the one described in the plans, as no materials are supplied with the kit for either type of burner. Chuck, Looking at the burn marks on a picture I have of this engine, it looks like the burner is run with a largish flame, maybe to stop it being blown out when the cylinder exhausts at the end of stroke. I never tried to blow it out, but I suppose I should. I will have to put my teeth in though, otherwise all I will be doing is blowing raspberries. John |
