Tiger Jet petal valve

Post by arpiem72 » Fri May 15, 2009 4:21 pm

I need a petal valve for a Japanese Tiger Jet pulse jet that is somewhat smaller than a Dynajet valve. I realize the engine has been out of production for many years, but thought maybe someone may have a spare they could sell. I have the dimensions for the Tiger Jet valve and I recall reading at one time where one could be made at home with the petal outline being etched with acid(?) on .006 spring steel.
Thanks in advance for any information and would be appreciated.

Francisco...thanks for your reply. If I don't receive another response to my question, I'll contact you and possibly we can make arrangements for a sale.

Arpiem 72,
I have a few Tiger-Jet reed valves that I'm willing to sell for $1.25 US each plus postage for up to 25 pieces. Be advised that they don't, normally, endure for more than about 15 minutes, total running time. If the Tiger is run lean, they can burn out very quickly, like all similar engines.
