On the test day, we ran the engine for a total of about 45 minutes. We started and shut it down several times, made a few adjustments, and ran it at various power levels.
This clip is edited out of the parts of all of those runs that I was able to capture.
We fuelled it with propane vapor, which is a convenient substitute for natural gas, because we can store the liquid propane in a large tank, and vaporize it as we need it.
To deliver natural gas in quantity to fuel the engine, we would need to build a pipeline to our test cell.
