R & B Gas Engine

[FMESParticipant @fmes]

Hi Gents,

I would like to build a gas (propane) carburettor as illustrated by John Olsen on the Rina Project some time back.

Could anyone provide the dimensions for the Rina unit, or a link to a magazine article? I think the R & B is quite a bit larger (2 1/4 bore x 2 3/4 stroke) so would be able to scale up ok.

Many thanks in advance

Lofty

There is going to be a gas regulator published in the next issue of ME.

Model Engine Builder also had one a few issues back

Also there is one online here

You may also want to visit MEM forum as two members there have R&B's on the go, they also both occasionally post here
