Flame Licker Engine

Got it Today! Getting it out of the packaging already a pleasant surprice! This little machine is not only nice looking it is also very well made with a nice finish. After a short look at the manual i filled alcohol in the burner and oiled up all joints and set the burner in front of the cylinder. 10 sec. waiting and I could start up the Flame Licker with ease and absolut no issue, It and is amazing to observe the engine running. Can only say buy one and experience it. It is really worth all the money it's cost!

Great affordable little vacuum engine :)

Great running engine with nice attention to detail. I have dozens of runs on mine to the point the cylinder is very blue but it only runs better & better. Some pointers I've learned are to only use a bare minimum amount of light oil on the pivot points, and ONLY a dry graphite lube for the piston/cylinder. Any wet lubes are too heavy and it won't run. Also, keep an eye on the crankshaft halves. If they become misaligned you'll see it as flywheel wobble. And be sure the set screw on the crankshaft intake valve actuator is aligned w/ the timing mark when at piston tdc. Otherwise it's just a matter of playing with the flame distance once running and periodically thereafter. Mine will usually start great cold but then stall and take some patient flipping to get warmed and then it will run the whole tank out. I don't doubt every one is it's own quirky animal but so fun to learn from and a great feeling everytime it hits a running harmony.
