i made a similar engine. nico71s design. it jams and i know that it is because of the switch that is closest to his 40-teeth gear (watch his videos and you'll understand which gear) but i dont know how to fix it. all pneumatic parts are unmodified and the switches are kinda stiff if that's the problem. i dont want to take the switch apart so how do i solve it?

[Allardio]

@WpA09 just add some grease to the switches, i used chain oil (normally for a bike)

that is like a steam engine running on compressed air!!! Great job

[5deiomma5]

great work how many rpms does it have

[PowKa154]

great engine  how much psi are you using

[TheIceychill2]

awesome id really like to see those yoke guides in more detail i have a brick scotch yoke engine and i use brick for the guides and that design would really reduce the friction

[headshot965]

how much power has it?

[ds777fighter]

Are those legos on steroids? Performance enhancing drugs? Crack?

[jorhoerst]

that's almost the design on LPEpower isn't it? do you have any pics of the valve side?

[techbricks]

@jorhoerst : I have made a web page and a video about opening and modifying pneumatic switches. Check my web site and my youtube video's!

[funkaybones]

Do you know how much horsepower or torque that gets at certain psi?

[Rick0rz]

0.01 horsepower lol

[legomaniacman]

love it! and i liked how you made it all yellow, looks like a CAT

[bellinivernon]

Exelente !

Well done! The pictures were a great deal of help when it came to the valve mechanism. I was too making my own LPE 3 SYS, however the valve mechanism troubled me. Thanks again!

[SpeedyGonZohan]

How fast is that going?
