Hi John.Sadly, the link to the video is broken.Cheers Graham.
Finished the Swan from Maurys stable earlier this month and got it to run reasonably well. A few problems along the way were a sticking exhaust valve, the hot tube not getting hot enough and getting the fuel mix right. The exhaust valve problem was solved by boring out the port and making and fitting a sleeve to fit with a narrower valve seat. I intended this to be a press fit but in the end used JB Weld. It seems to be holding up OK.I used a commercial burner for the hot tube but it didn't get hot enough, so with advice from a fellow MEM member a burner was made along with a needle valve. Problem solved. Fuel mixture was just trial and error.John
