the problem is it may forward or backward in the first start...

@Lego5ful The Magneto needs alot of current (amperage) to move that electromagnet. (Pull the solenoid)... The Magneto only outputs less than 1 mA, probably around the same amperage as a static shock.

İs power enough for driving bicycle ?..if the power is sufficient, it's perfect !..we want see it soon !...

35 people put their finger in the flywheel.

In addition, your setup and so the one that I have...suffer from the same issue, when the piston is going up...the air trap after the exhaust port can not go anywhere...hence, it is a back pressure that the flywheel must compensate for (reduce efficiency) but for only $ 10.00 worth of parts (the swing check valve and some fittings for the air connection), I will keep it like this !!!

Dan, what is the weight of your flywheel...or the tire that you are using as a flywheel ? I'm curious, I have a similar setup but I'm using a 12 inches sewing wheel (from an old sewing machine) as my flywheel...I need to spin the flywheel hard ...so that it keeps going. In my setup; the air goes through a swing check valve and there is a small wood rod that pushes the valve open every time the piston goes TDC. I think I need a heavier fly wheel.

Why couldnt you use the magneto to run the solenoid with a reststor? Its a pre made timing system and you said that it would give it more power from the solenoid being open longer? Im only asking because I'm doing the same thing and before I buy all the stuff I want to know if its possible?

@ejearpi he uses compressed air which has oil droplets flowing within the air. With steam is a similar principle, steam air has steam oil mixed into steam droplets.

And how will you run this engine for longer time on steam?not just 1 minutewhere is the oil for lubrication?the engine will stuck

how does it runf if you advance the timeing |
