That's running your Baker fan without a care in the world Bruce.

What's kind of neat Jim was that I am running it right now & went through a tank of fuel (noticed the flame was burning out) took the pot out , filled it up again & put it back under without the engine even stopping , & I wasn't trying to finish before the engine quit running, that thing has amazing sustaining ability.
I consider this engine one of the best values per funds spent.
What should I use (if anything) to lube that brass cylinder assembly ?

G'day Bruce, I'm really tickled pink every time I light the wick and fire it up. Its just so well constructed and looks really nice.
I'm impressed too how long it goes when the wick goes out, neat idea to refuel and keep it going 

So far I have only put a few drops of 3 in 1 oil on the mechanical moving parts. I'll use graphite on the other moving part.
