re: threaded SCH 40 Pipe Pulsejet

Even after correcting the chamber size, i couldn't get it to work, but i put in a fuel injector using brakeline fittings threaded through the chamber to use propane. Normal USA propane valves, after the regulator, thread in to the brake line perfectly.

re: threaded SCH 40 Pipe Pulsejet

re: No-weld pipe fitting valveless

It's to late to edit my previous post, sry.
I used the fuel setup on page two, but when trying to start it all i got was a low rumble (about 4 a second), no thrust at all. Plus the metal, no red. What went wrong?
