Saturday Morning Fun with a Black Widow that thinks it's a Tee Dee
More run time with this Ebay "Black Widow" that arrived with a Tee Dee Cyl/Piston. Still haven't changed out the crank to a Tee Dee/ Diesel...just didn't feel like messing with it. Pretty good natured little engine that's only giving me 1 1/2 minutes from it's 8cc tank!
If I stick it on a sailplane, I'll have to not mess around down low, but point it at the moon instead !
Prop is a Cox 5-4. Fuel is Glowplugboy 24/17. Added a Tee Dee Glowhead since the last runs. Teflon Reed.

Re: Saturday Morning Fun with a Black Widow that thinks it's a Tee Dee
When my BWs are running really good I only get 1:40 out of 8cc too. But that's really cool to get a surprise combo like that. Get a Tee Dee head for it when you order the crank. You'll only be restricted by reed float. Try a steel one.

Yes, Boys and Girls...you DO need an intake gasket if you expect your little engine to run!
Oh well...anyway, I actually lost a bit over the teflon reed, so I'm going back there!
