Forest Classics makes Bix Burner Kits.

I think you could find one that would work well with your 3/4" traction engine.

Forest Classics is one of the best quality bix burner distributers.  Phil and Dee run the shop.  email them and ask them what you need and they will tell you. email takes a day or two.  they are great to do business with and I highly recommend.  the options typically include a 1.burner.  the 2.tank.  the 3.line.  and the burner/line 4. jet.  you will need to order a kit or those 4 items seperate at which they can advise your best option.  seems the website will goof the shipping i like to order direct via email for a personal touch and invoice.  these guys are amazing like i said.  good luck!  let us know the outcome.
Love steam engines, especially older German made.  Love the more clockwork style.  Addicted to this stuff!

Great advice.

They are nice people and provide high quality products.  I own a box full of their burners.
