we found you can similarly put a spark plug in the head of a changfa type without mod of the head. the injector is a much smaller hole than the lister, but there are smaller spark plugs commonly used in chainsaws and other small equipment that fit near perfectly. i think they are 9mm, but am not sure. you can repurpose the injector bolt down clamp to hold the spark plug. and yes, the changfa buries the governor and injector rack inside the engine. you can't really get mechanical access to it to repurpose it for your wood gas butterfly speed control. it seems you need to build up another speed control system. or, somehow take your "signal" from a small in out pin that is protruding from the crank case, which controls the injector. this only has about 1/8" movement, so not terribly easy to use for butterfly control (though admitedly not impossible). j > Ken Boak >> >> Principal Electronic Engineer >> All Power Labs >> Berkeley >> CA 94710 >> >> 510 684 2640 >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Gasification mailing list >> >> to Send a Message to the list, use the email address >> [email protected] >> >> to UNSUBSCRIBE or Change your List Settings use the web page >> >> http://lists.bioenergylists.org/mailman/listinfo/gasification_lists.bioenergylists.org >> >> for more Gasifiers, News and Information see our web site: >> http://gasifiers.bioenergylists.org/ >> >> > > > _______________________________________________ > Gasification mailing list > > to Send a Message to the list, use the email address > [email protected] > > to UNSUBSCRIBE or Change your List Settings use the web page > > http://lists.bioenergylists.org/mailman/listinfo/gasification_lists.bioenergylists.org > > for more Gasifiers, News and Information see our web site: > http://gasifiers.bioenergylists.org/ > > -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jim Mason Website: http://www.whatiamupto.com Current Projects: - Gasifier Experimenters Kit (the GEK): http://www.gekgasifier.com - Escape from Berkeley alt fuels vehicle race: www.escapefromberkeley.com - ALL Power Labs on Twitter: http://twitter.com/allpowerlabs - Shipyard Announce list: http://lists.spaceship.com/listinfo.cgi/icp-spaceship.com
