Hello all.....I've been having fun testing various liquids ... Heet, and Ever clear appear the best so far ...but still not enough to pull the trolley on the track ...run the motor yes ..but dies once on the track ...new fiberglass wick no better then old cotton one ...looks like ordering some Methanol ..is the next step .... here is a video of the motor running ... there is some wear in the shaft with the fly wheel ...so the slop may not help the situation ... unique sound ....Cheers Carey
