I found plans from scientific supply,for this beast! I'm going to make a ice sled with this PJ, I plan on running it on 50/50 gas and diesel,using 4 6gal per hour oil furnace nozzeles, it will produce 3millon btu's of heat! & give me a fun ride on the ice! I'm sure!

Hello, I will experiment with lp gas For starting & or pressure my liquid tank w/lp, or 4 elect.fuel pumps,as for liquid nozzles" (4) - 6 gph solid cone spray pattern oil furnace nozzles,I can run it on lp only,but I want to try liquid fuels,oils & or methanol,ide sure like to test it this winter on a ice sled,I'm sure it will keep us all warm" with three million BTU's of heat energy being produced!!! Nice bonus!!!
