My use is going to be for heat and electrical. My main design is a large unit that uses cordwood (split 16 inches long) the great thing about the design is that it is self lighting no need for an ignition. The refractory gets hot enough to ignite it.
In my smaller units on my page they both self ignite. The ash chamber gets hot enough to light the gas!

I added more air to the unit than I allowed to escape.
Therefore the launch. lol

I just noticed your question on my carburation.

I made an intake flange out of plate steel and made it fit right onto the head of the engine. I had the genny running a little with the carb on, but, it wasn't perform how I wanted. I made a set up using air line fittings and a ball valve to control the air mixture. After that, my genny fires up, almost, whenever I want.
