I love these Tarot engines, I think I bought mine because of your suggestion Jim, they are just an amazing value & good runners. Nice to see you making a video again. :)

Great video Jim!

It was a perfect showcase for that wonderful and surprisingly powerful Tarot Stirling Cycle Engine, as well as your nice work on the Jensen workshop.

But mostly it was fun watching your one-handed fumbling with the drive belt ..... looked just like something that I'd do and have often done!!!

A very handsome engine is the Tarot and a surprisingly useable one too - mine powers a full Mamod workshop with ease.
