Horizontal  hot-bulb  engines.

This is one of my first built "lamp-start" hot-bulb engines, where the blow-lamp can be extinguished when the hot-bulb is warm and the engine is running. On my earlier built engines, the hot-bulb lost heat to the water-cooled injector and to the cylinder head, thereby stopping the engine.
