WOW so many replies to answer. 1stly Thanks again for taking me in ,I was surprised  be on line here so soon at this time of year.I don't have a lot of hands on gasifieing but I had success on my very first build,there are three video's on youtube, our channel is ushillbillies showing what we accomplished with that build.Turns out that the gas had a very high tar content which seemed not to bother the smaller engines but plugged the Lister with tar to the point of no compression,My brother has several of these engines,he wanted the twin back ,so I traded him for a triple(he dose't no it has no compresson)...brotherly love ya know...HAHHAHA .  I am now half way through reworking an advanced version based on the IMBERT drawing..but I have been bogged down with making a living,we about 100 miles south of the the Alberta oilsands on the only highway to get there on.I have several pictures I can post & one video of the new shaker on our youtube channel .There are some pics on the yahoo woodgas site to if some one wanted see them there.I hope this gives some insite into me & where I'm at..

Thankyou for allowing m,e into the fold so to speak.I was directed here by Steve U. whom I've had much positive interaction with concerning wood gas & gasifirers.I met Him online through Victory Gas Works.Steve directed me here because I have ran the HRG 25 hp Listers mentioned on the forum on wood gas.
