I have run it on air. It will run on less then 1 psi. Runs very smooth. For the money yes I would recommend it. They are really nice engines. He makes them with govner and with out. With govner its a S10 with out its a S10B. I like the govner and it is also a functional govner. Not just for looks.

Thank you Randy!

This is it beside a S50 I built several years ago. For size comparison.

I know it's a smaller copy of the Stuart S50 engine. But I decided I wanted one. So I got on Ebay and bid on one and got it. Just arrived today and I will have to say it is a very nice engine. Runs very smooth and on less then 1psi. If you been thinking of getting one go ahead. Don't think you will be disappointed with it.
