I found a Flame Eater Model 3 in the attic. The engine itself is here, but the fuel sorce/wick holder (insert fancy name here
) is missing. Is there a substitute for this, or where can i find the part to operate it?
Many thanks!

dman6903, The burner is just a simple wick burner for metholated spirits. Use a wick for one of those fancy oil lamps. As long as the motor is free running, turns a number of turns with the valve open, and the valve works ok, you should soon be making a bit of noise, just copy the lamp in the photo. Ian S C
