Engine Converting
« on: January 22, 2021, 12:28:05 pm »
Hi.
Here, information about my work over the past few months.
A motor system Hot Bulb engine from Germany transformed into Hit & Miss.
I used a mixer provided by Pm Research, a regulator of my stock and an electronic ignition with Hall sensor.
I built the muffler and installed the spark plug.
It works with synthetic gasoline "Aspen" (gasoline for mower, brush cutter, chainsaw.)

Regards Christian.

Nice work Christian,  I like the deep Ker-thunk sound it makes ,just like the big boys.

 The belt operated hit and miss governor with different size pulleys for different speeds is genius!
Very nice engine!
