Good looking engine - didn't realize you could run them on citronella oil which is a slick idea. Kind of makes me want to keep my Weedens - maybe there is shelf space for them after all.

just the kerosene lamp wick ones.  its the same setup as a lamp too.  I dobt know about the alcohol burners I doubt it would work as well.  In fact i tried denatured alcohol in this engine and it almost removed the paint!! so oils only now.  i enjoy how it smokes I hose it off gently in a dishpan to make sure parts dont fall off.  mainly just chimney soot.
Love steam engines, especially older German made.  Love the more clockwork style.  Addicted to this stuff!
