Hi all, being a newbie, and somewhat proud owner of an M-10 junk yard turbo, I need to ask where I might find technical info on the web for this unit....
Hi Mike A happy new year to you and yours. They're interesting sizes you're running for your flametube, those many years of experience " in the trade" are...

Check the pics from "Mattoe_ca" The first turbine is complete and running a 2.2 litre dodge turbo using the "flow through " type combuster, about 18-20 PSI...
John - I appreciate your thoughts and words of wisdom as always; you make me think and I like that. Let me see if I can remember some of the factors that the...
OOOOOOWWW -) a new way to get the shells off all those tough Christmas Nuts. Does it get the shells off clean? Does it do it without mashing most of the nuts...
I think i would agree with Mike.....since his input was crucial in getting an engine to work with very good performance levels....When i first looked at the...
Hi I'd like to fit either an LED or a bulb onto my control panel, next to the ignition firing up button, to indicate that a spark is actually occurring (rather...
I tried a neon bulb on my system and it indicated the presence of voltage. I am using 1 leg of a center-tapped neon sign transformer (~6kV). I wrapped 1 of...
I was thinking in terms of a wire wrapped around that feed, leading to a neon, or buffered LED, or even a bulb, the other pole of which would be connected to...
spark devices should be pretty reliable... we don't woorry about indicating spark plug function in a car... and the pressures here are much lower, too! jay...
That's right, but I'm a little concerned about turning on the gas, and awaiting ignition....... and nothing happens........ do we keep trying, or turn off and...
As Jay said, they're pretty reliable....however, it only takes a moment to unplug the lead and plug in a screwdriver to check the HT across to earth prior to...
Did I ever tell the story about the Beechcraft King Air that a guy was starting up one morning, turned on the motor, let it spool up, started feeding fuel,...
There is an easier way to confirm spark before start. I turn on the spark and confirm by listening (in the area of the combustor), then I turn on the rest of...
I could also hear the spark when I used my 13000 v neon transformer, but I'm running autonomously now, from a 12v car battery, using an ignition coil...
Hi Mike Higher HRR are certainly achievable by us DIY'ers , the model aircraft guys have made great leaps in this direction , but as you said more holes to ...
Hi Nick Could you elaborate , please :-)) It might help when I get around to making my smaller engine up, I've got a nice little Garrett in the shed that only...
I'm wondering if you might be able to put a small neon in series with the high voltage output line, before it goes to your iginition. Neon tubes do not have a...
Actually you could do this inexpensively. Just get an older style inductive pickup timing light. Then, use the circuitry from it to drive an led circuit. You...
Good point - I wanted to suggest something similar while reading the daily digest ;-). Only insulation of the neon bulb might be an issue. Another option would...
I won't hear it over the noise of my starter blower. Incidentally, could you tell me the starting sequence that you use ? Do you get the gas burning before you...
Sure, we start the oil pump and the start air at the same time. (When everything is cold N1 is too low for starting so we use a momentary push button to stop...
