Modified 15-Level Methanol to Gasoline Engine Generator DIY Bare Unit
The DIY Power Core: Modified Gasoline Engine Generator
This is the heart of your next project. We have taken a robust 15-level methanol engine and expertly modified it to run on gasoline, transforming it into a versatile power generation unit.
Sold as a "bare machine" without a base, this engine is designed for the creative builder. It features a 12-24V low-voltage generator head and a self-ignition system, ready to be integrated into your custom generator set, RC project, or science experiment.
Why Choose This Modified Engine Unit?
1. Gasoline Conversion Convenience
Forget expensive nitro fuel. This engine has been converted to run on a standard Gasoline + 2-Stroke Oil Mix (10:2 ratio). This makes fuel sourcing cheaper and easier, perfect for long-term use or emergency applications.
2. Efficient Power Generation
Turn fuel into electricity. The integrated generator produces voltage based on RPM. At idle, it outputs ~8-9V. With a little throttle, it easily reaches 12.6V, capable of generating up to 30 Watts (recommended continuous load 20W). It’s ideal for charging small batteries, powering lights, or running mobile devices.
3. Stable & Durable Performance
Engineered for reliability. The modifications ensure low idle speed, high stability, and reduced heat generation. This translates to a longer lifespan and lower fuel consumption compared to standard high-performance RC engines.
4. Ultimate DIY Potential
This is a builder's dream. Without a fixed base, you have the freedom to mount it however you like. Build a portable charging station, a custom hybrid RC car, or a unique desktop display. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.
Technical Highlights: Engineering Excellence
- Variable Voltage Output: Voltage scales with RPM (2000 - 17,000 RPM). By fixing the throttle position, you can set a constant voltage output.
- Self-Ignition System: The modified ignition system simplifies starting and running on gasoline, removing the need for constant glow plug heating.
- Voltage Stabilization Ready: While the raw output varies, adding a stabilizer (recommended) ensures a steady 12.6V output even at high throttle, protecting your electronics.

Usage Scenario: The Custom Build
You have a vision for a portable emergency charger. You take this bare engine unit and mount it to a custom 3D-printed frame. You connect the output wires to a voltage regulator module and a USB port.
You fill the small tank with your gas/oil mix. You pull the starter. The engine purrs to life, settling into a low, steady hum. You plug in your phone, and it starts charging. You've built your own power plant from scratch.
