you need to genarate a pulse of current, just use a old clicker type lighter,(piezo), check through spud wiki, great place to get info

u need a 9v motor inside the chamber, that will give you tiny sparks
or you can hook it up to steel wool

A 9v volt motor? Where abouts are the sparks? Inside or on the connections?

9v motors use brushes.. motors with burshes in them create sparks...

they are so small that I doubt they would be a reliable ignition

well you could just turn one on and wait... eventouall its bound to make spark and ignite the fuel...
