Re: A Model A that Runs on Wood?
Thanks for the video. The flame you see in your fireplace when burning wood is the gas from the heated wood. Mostly carbon monoxide with some hydrogen and carbon thrown in. You need to control the air/gas mixture constantly as the fire in the gas producer burns down. About 50% air and 50% gas from the gas producer. Wood chips work best. Synchro is right that the gas needs to be filtered. Along with the gas comes from silicon dioxide, which makes a good grinding paste.

Driving's a blast, a blast from the past.
