I’m thinking of selling my RMC flame engine. Any ideas on value of this? I’m in Canada but will be going to Lebanon PA in Jan and may take it there to sell on consignment. Wayne

Just got this up and running. I bought it at auction a while ago with some other RMC engines. I can’t say it was easy though. The micro switch that controls ignition was broken, then the pin out the intake valve fell out and the valve ended up in the cylinder bending the valve and the...

Thanks Everyone for all the feedback and great ideas. I will give some of these a try on the weekend so hopefully I can get this engine up and running reliably. Really appreciate all the help! Wayne

Thanks Alan! I will give that a try. Hopefully I have some small locking nuts to fit. Wayne

Hi, looking for some help. I am getting this nice little RMC engine up and running that I bought at an auction. The eccentric for the exhaust valve rod pusher is held by 2 grub screws so that you can adjust the timing of the exhaust valve. The issue I have is they keep loosening off in use and...

Couple of engines I picked up recently. Just got them up and running.

I sent you a number you can reach me at. Thx

I have some small engine castings. No plans. Monitor vertical hit and miss I believe $150 Rowland’s RMC engine castings $50 each. Located in Caledonia Ontario Canada but can ship at buyers cost.

Hi Loren, after a lot of messing with this engine I did finally get it to run. Using an Automotive type coil and after a lot of messing with the timing I got a spark at the correct time. The needle valve is quite sensitive but after I started using a rubber wheel in a drill to turn the flywheels...

Thank you so much! I will contact him Ro see if I can get the plans. I really like your 4 stroke conversion. I may go that route. Did you have plans for that or develop it yourself? Thanks again Wayne

Hi does anyone recognize this engine? I have no idea what engine it is and I need to find plans for it. Thanks Wayne

Yes I’m going. I’m from Caledonia and going with my friend from Burlington.

When you use an automotive coil does the negative on coil go through the points and the top connector on the coil go to the spark plug? Thx

Hi, yes you sent to me and thank you very much!!!!

Thanks Peter!! That confirms what I was suspecting. Having limited knowledge of these engines I could not get my head around how this could produce a single spark at TDC. It was sparking at too many points in the 4 strokes. Now I just have to figure out how to set up a single spark coil! My...
