Here is my first message

It's been a good year that I have been spending regularly on the site and forum and now i'm going into the concrete
So I found a 33 KWa generator with an engine Honda GX200
It's great (unleaded), it's the big brother of Michel David's test engine
Here is the state of my knowledge:
Please note: this message will evolve, depending on the progress of the project
the reactor
It is largely inspired by mini reactor of Michel David (the one with the matchbox, at the end of the page)
Here is its diagram, in configuration 3 (with the ball valve fuel)
And here is the exploded view, before welding:
The rod is made of steel with a diameter of 8 mm and a length of 16 cm (like the generator Honda 2,2 kw). Ideally stainless steel series 310, but:

The rest is recycling.
The fuel is a Dellorto SHA 1412 recovered from a scooter repairer.
The bubbler (optional)
It will consist of a 5 liter plastic container (container of coolant).
Depending on the pressure, the container will deform. A properly adjusted motor drives a half-crushed container.
Interior design
The idea is to be able to test the maximum posibility. For this, I will use high temperature hoses to replace the copper pipes
1, Water doping
The advantage of this solution is that the "engine" is touched as little as possible.
This solution will work with the water bulb, as described above
I think just put water in the bubbler and send the outlet of the reactor in the air intake of the carburetor, with a valve at the outlet of the reactor and another to manage a "pure" air intake towards the carburetor when the first valve is closed.
2, reactor + bulb with mixture
This corresponds to the mounting of the tutorial
In my case, I remove the original fuel and connect the reactor directly to the engine inlet. The high temperature hose, giving me this flexibility
3, Ball valve + reactor
At the entrance to the reactor, the plug fuel that will have to be found
Advantage: being able to use fuel oil, diesel or alcohol
What do you think ?
My questions:
Where to find high temperature hoses? In the breakage? Are the coolant lines suitable?
Thank you for your remarks.
Sincerely,
Bruno
