I think it's BS, no way carburetor jets and fuel line that small work, just look at what is required to run a model plane and car engines.

I'm not so sure. I have seen models of V8 engines that small that actually did run. It's amazing that some folks have the skills to do this.

Re: 1925 Model T Ford scale model running
I've seen this scale model Duesenberg in person & running. If this guy can make a running Duesy on this scale, then a Model T should be a cinch. Every last detail of this Duesenberg is complete & accurate, right down to working hydraulic shock absorbers.

He says in the comments for the video;
"Hola la maqueta tiene un motor a pilas que simula el sonido del motor."
This would translate to;
"Hello, the model has a battery-powered motor that simulates the sound of the motor."
A great and very detailed model, but not a gas engine.

Wow. Thanks! He had me completely fooled, (not that he was trying to, just that I no hablo espanol).Pep C Strebeck wrote: ↑Sat Feb 20, 2021 7:22 pmHe says in the comments for the video;

I was most impressed by the low speed idle. Very difficult to do in a scale model engine, but not so hard when using an electric motor I guess.
