aero nut thanks for replying I read that 140@ before in another thread but I didnt know if it was duration or timing. thanks for clarifying it . I wont DO anything with that info just yet .I want to exhaust all the bolt on upgrades before i modify anything permanently.
as I understand this glow\ gas concept you are using ,I was wondering ,isnt this kind of a hybrid diesel engine ,you are just modifying the fuel and its octane no? or is the fact that you are still using something to ignite the fuel mixture(glow plug ,whether from heat or catalystic action )negate it, and make it a glow engine ? just wondering what your thinking is on this
and while I'm on this subject ,has anyone tried to convert to diesel fuel ?just curious. compression would probably be to low no doubt. just a thought .
poco 242 thank you also I will look for a carb within those parameters. the lawn mower shops locally want an arm and first born for just about every thing, 30.00-40.00 for carbs.for another 20.00-30.00 i could get another engine from harbor freigh! any suggestions as to what kind of equipment to pilfer a carb from ,or where to look for a carb would be apreciated.
