The media could not be loaded. This works very well! Looks very authentic too! I had to use a tinfoil covering to keep more heat going into the metal capsule.Some tips about this and important information you might want to know:I used cooking olive oil, but it is not good stuff to breath in while it’s smokes.It is not RC.Cooking olive oil is a little hard to Star burning, not for inside use.And it’s quite fast considering it’s size.Also I added a video for how I started it up.I do recommend using lamp oils or 95% ethanol.IMPORTANT! Do NEVER take apart the pistons! It is specially decompressed air inside them, if the air inside the pistons are not balanced or a bit decompressed it will not work and it means it is destroyed.Hope this helps, use olive oil or 95% ethanol. Olive oil makes a lot of smog and cogs up the capsule so clean it after every use.

I brought this for a Christmas gift for my husband he had one without the wheels but in moving it broke so I think he's going to love this

It took a little bit to get it to go.Once you get things aligned it is fun.

A+

Received a DISPOSABLE SYRINGE WITH NEEDLE inside of box. My son opened it, I control the fuel so it was no big deal to me but he found and opened it. Luckily he questioned it and I was able to take it from him. Other people may not be as lucky.

i LOVE this thing, i was amazed at how much compression capacity the quartz pistons have, and the overall power you can get out of the small pulley, this is truly a super cool thing to have and own and i highly recomend it for any science freak out there like me, im for sure going to do some home alone style pulley systems with this thing because it truly does have the capability of iton the dislikes side, i wish they could add in soem kind oif a magnetic weight for the alcohol lamp because at high rpm it does bounce aroud quite a bit, but does a good job not to leak everywhere, so all in all i call this a win winCare and knowledge: First off i am going to address something somebody stated earlier "Do not dissasemble the pistons" i did that, taking the power piston out of the glass sleeve, putting it back in, just rotate the engine a little and it will be fine after, mine worked fine after that.I am using 91% isopropyl alcohol, HIGHTLY reccomended to use alcohol, burns cleaner and outputs more heat, making the engine run WAY better than oilin conclusion, just keep an eye one the engine and be careful with the whole piece and i feel like it will last a long time, and again i am super pleased with this thing, it is cool!

Not really a "kit". Almost no instructions. (Those provided glaringly not from an English speaker).

Fascinating model and looks great on display
