Well i was playing around with my mini combustion earlier (aka 2 inches of 1/2" pvc that i fill with a lighter, and spark with a piezo) and i saw that once i got the timing down, i could keep the lighter "on" (continuosly filling the chamber) and get it to ignite nicely each time i clicked the piezo
Now, i know that that's some pretty obvious knowledge, but why not take it to the next level?
The hardest thing to get this to work would be a constant spark (maybe stunguns can keep a spark going for a minute or so...I dont know though)
Other than the spark, all youd have to do would attatch a barrel with a hopper on it, to the comb. chamber, turn on the propane pretty low, and start the spark up.
i know that the combustion wouldnt be the most powerful that you could get with propane (because you'd be igniting it at the lowest fuel-air ratio that it burns at) but can anyone see any reason why this wouldnt work?
Also, if this has already been discussed, sorry. I skimmed thru the site pretty fast, but didnt see anything like this
Hope you all like the idea!

Auto Combustion?
rambo made one of these, he is a combustion/hybrid genius
in the upcoming presidential election, there will be several candidates who will be running, one of whom is Hillary Clinton. Now WAIT A SECOND!!! I though there was some sort of rule that prevented someone from serving more than two terms in office. Vote Against Hillary: Presidential Elections 08

prolly right, i guess a nice big chamber fan going nonstop would work for that
damnit, did he really? I though I had a brand new idea!beebs111 wrote:rambo made one of these, he is a combustion/hybrid genius
