Thought Id share the progress of my Rudy Traction Engine. Ive had it running on its own fire and water. Runs smooth and quiet, pretty happy with how its looking so far, and with the changes Ive made.
One issue im curious about is my fuel tank, after the fire is going for a few minutes, the thing will go up in flames, like the cups syphon the fuel out of the tank? Wondering if anyone else has had this? Am I using the wrong type of fuel? Ive tried camp stove fuel and alcohol. Or is it the wick material Im using? Thoughts and insites would be very helpful!
