Needle valve for your air valve would work better.

Can turbine engine run on wood gas? just a thought

[iwantosavemoney]

this look great and has a use i would like to see it with a load will it stay running? 5 stars

Have you tried leaving the carborator on and supplying the woodgas to the air intake of the carb? I thought this would allow the generator to regulate engine speed to keep the frequency at 60Hz.

Can I compress the wood gas to store a cylinder?

[jimprice09]

what the price range ?

Interesting, What you say about the old cast iron engines. With the cash for clunkers many of the old cars with the solid old engines that would be ideal for running of woodgas are being destroyed or scrapped. If the economy goes down as many predict, imported gasoline will become far too expensive for many. I wonder how the newer more complicated auto engines would cope running off wood gas. All the vehicles I see running off wood gas are older models. What do you think?

I've heard you can't run a two-stroke generator on woodgas... is this true or just difficult? The reason given was there's no way to add the oil to the mix.

[SasquatchOverlord]

It depends on the two-cycle engine, because some are oil injected, therefore, you don't have to mix fuel/oil

for the sweet spot on the air intake, you could make a simple plate with a "set screw" and adjust the set screw to where the sweet spot is,,, so in essence you have a closed or off position and a open (sweet spot) or run position. to save yourself some aggravation of having to find that sweet spot each time.

just a thought,,,, do i win the booby prize?

ROFL  *poke*

@evcrawfish If it were me, I would use a globe valve in series with the ball valve. Adjust the globe valve to find the "sweet spot" and then you could leave the ball valve full open or full closed.
