Mamod TE1A Traction Engine

[NickJ95GB]

what fuel do you recommend for this, as i used mine today and is now run-in but have no fuel

i had the solid white compound but what works better please

[steamwally]

Well I used to use the solid fuel (metholtated spirit blocks) as suplied by mamod, but it's ruddy expensive. I bought a repro meths (liquid) burner from forrest classics for about £15. Quite expensive for what it is, but then a bottle of fuel is about two quid, so money well spent.

[steamwally]

[alexisdabest1]

nice, where did you get those tracks from ??

[steamwally]

Thank you, the tyres came from a website called forest classics, they make them. I think they're around £8 - £12 but well worth having.

[alexisdabest1]

@steamwally thank you.

[steamwally]

I'll have a look.....

Glad you like the engine : )

[805ROADKING]

Cool video!! Sound track made it even cooler!! ☺

[steamwally]

Thank you.

All the sights, sounds and smells of the steam rally!

[MrSteamdan]

right two tickets for the steamwally rally

i enjoyed that nice music and a nice te1a!

[steamwally]

Ha ha! I'll have to have a big crank up in the garden, five stationary engine and 7 steam engines, pluss all my lighting display. That would be fun....

[MrSteamdan]

@steamwally im going to make a video of my model cars and ships later i think!

[steamwally]

I'd like to see that : )

I think when I have the Ruston's magneto sorted out I will do a video of the the Wolseley with it, they are basicaly the same engine so it would be an interesting comparison.

The Ruston will still start but won't run for long don't think.
