2. Cox Models - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_Models

   Nitro- and gasoline-powered tether cars with .60 cubic inch miniature engines capable of speeds of 100 mph (160 km/h) were quickly becoming popular. Cox's first contribution to that growing hobby was a cast aluminum midget racer powered by a .09 and .15 engine by Cameron Brothers of Chino, California.

3. Cox model engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_model_engine

   The engines that used the early-style three-piece piston are any engines produced prior to 1957, i.e. Space Bug, Space Bug Jnr, Thermal Hopper and Strato Bug. Since the Space Bug, Space Bug Jr and Thermal Hopper were produced up until 1958 you will find versions of these early engines around with the later-style pistons. (and cylinders)

4. Jetex - Wikipedia

   The exhaust gas is not excessively hot, which confers a safety advantage. Motors are loaded with one or more solid fuel pellets and a combustible 'wick' is led through the exhaust nozzle to ignite the fuel. Fuel and wick were manufactured by Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI). The engine casing of the early motors is made of an aluminium alloy.

5. Model engine - Wikipedia

   After starting the engine can easily be leaned (by adjusting a needle valve in the spraybar) to obtain maximum power. Glowplug engines are also known as nitro engines. Nitro engines require a 1.5 volt ignitor to light the glow plug in the heat sink. Once primed, pulling the starter with the ignitor in will start the engine.

6. Stuart Turner (company) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Turner_(company)

   Stuart Turner Ltd was incorporated in 1906 [2] and started to produce model steam engines, gas engines for domestic electricity, lathes, etc. Stuart Turner went on to produce further model steam designs, and in 1906 there were nine models in the range. By 1907 more space was needed so premises were rented at Market Place in the centre of Henley ...

7. Mamod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mamod

   The firebox remained unchanged from the older Minor 1, and some SP1 engines were built with the old Mamod Minor 1 boiler. The exhaust system was a simple open port, similar to the Minor 2 and MEC1 engines. Despite their limited power and torque, these engines were capable of operating at least one or two miniature tools.

8. DeLorean time machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeLorean_time_machine

   Three DeLoreans used were purchased from a collector—one for stunts, one for special effects, and one for normal shots. [ 29 ] [ 31 ] They were unreliable and often broke down. [ 23 ] 88 mph (142 km/h) was chosen as the time travel speed because it was easy to remember and looked "cool" on the speedometer. [ 32 ]

9. Tether car - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tether_car

   Tether cars are often small (less than 1 meter in length), powered by a non-radio controlled model aeroplane engine (two stroke, glow plug, piston liner, etc.), and run on fuel supplied by a fuel tank within the car. Since 2015, electric motor driven cars, powered by batteries, have also emerged. [2]
