The Roadster just had a small weep on its gauge glass and worked OK. Repairing the weep took a lot longer than it should have and went a bit OTT!

This runs so much better than the stock mamod. You have done such a nice job

This is astonishing. You’ve completely re-engineered the whole thing. It would be interesting to run a side-by-side speed comparison to see if your V2 engine generates more speed than the original single piston.

Hi Aidan, It travels about the same speed as a standard Roadster, probably because it is a lot heavier. Take care Tony.

If you wanted to sell a few pre made versions id consider buying one! Great ideas to apply though, I have been meaning to do something similar to one of my Mamod traction engines, but lack the high pressure/heat copper braising skill, let alone on on such small scale

You should work for Mamod and get rid of their crappy pop rivets and nylon bush bearings.Then their models would be better value. What a great job you did on the Roadster, thank you for showing, enjoyed watching that.

Just wondering where you got the chain drive and gears ? I was thinking of doing something similar . More torque to the wheels .

Hi Michael, Both the gears, sprockets and chain are Mecanno products. Take care Tony.

Hello! Wonderful modification so cleanly done. I was hoping you could tell me where you purchased the valve for the gas tank? I have been looking high and low and can not find a nice small flow valve like the one you used. THANKS!!!

Hi, I made the gas control valve so cannot help you regarding a supplier. Take care Tony.

Hi Tyler, Alas I only made two of these engines over four years ago and have gone on to do other things. I don't think a standard Mamod boiler and burner would make enough steam to power one of these engines. Regards Tony.

@@tylerunderberg955 Hi Tyler, Both the Mamods I played with had hard soldered boilers so gas was OK. I don't know if all the Mamod steam vehicles are the same. The other conversion I did is at kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGSukoFqjL9-lZo Take care Tony.
