This one arrived a few weeks ago, but the boiler was sacrificed for the non-reversing 25 I was fortunate enough to win another Boiler on an Ebay auction and it arrived today. I ran this using the burner from my Luton Bowman PW203 and to be honest I think it was too much burner, the next time I run this I will try the burner from my M135.
Here it is with a working boiler, my Alcohol Fired Jensen 75
A few of these were made as an experiment to see if Jensen could market an Alcohol fired engine, the Alcohol 75 borrowed the engine from the 70. Today the model number lives on with the Jensen 75 being the Esbit fired counterpart to the 25.

... gosh, how I missed this!
John, what a terrific job you've done! And as Reid once quoted Lennon: There are no problems - only solutions!

No video at the moment, I did run it and it runs like a Jensen 70, however I am in a bit of a mess right now, I misplaced something and am going nuts trying to find it.
