Frequently Asked Questions
MAINTENANCE OF OUR ENGINE
To keep your engine operating at peak performance, be sure to perform proper maintenance for each of the following areas, as outlined in your owner's manual:
.Air filter
.Oil (and filter)
.Cooling system (including the flywheel fan, cooling fins, and any radiators or oil coolers)
Recommendations vary for each engine type based on engine and operating temperature. Please consult your owner’s manual for oil recommendations. If you can't find it, please contact service@stirlingkit.com
Oils and coolants vary by engine model and drive/gear models. Refer to the Operation Manual for specific recommendations for your operating conditions or discuss with our engine expert.
We do not recommend using additives or cleaners in the oil or fuel system. Air-cooled engines operate at higher temperatures than liquid-cooled model engines, and additives developed for model engine use may not perform properly at higher temperatures. In addition, oil additives can prematurely break down, altering the properties of the oil and leading to extensive internal damage or failure. Fuel system cleaning additives have a tendency to separate and turn acidic, causing damage to fuel system components. We do, however, recommend a fuel stabilizer during periods of non-use (one month or more) to retard fuel deterioration.
Due to possible variations within a model series, we recommend that you rely on your actual dipstick readings. Add oil of the proper type up to the "F" or "FULL" mark on the dipstick. Your owner's manual can provide you with more specific information.

Valen Gibbs
Had a good time building this. Very detailed. Hint pay attention to directions. I didn’t at first and had to dissemble and reassemble a few times.I have given this finished product to my older family members. I have posted it on my facebook and it is worthy of my recommendation to anyone.
Lisa Stone
Purchased the V8 Engine because I knew it would be challenging and it would take time to finish correctly. When the kit arrived I was impressed with the metal packing container. The instructions were very easy to read with diagrams for each part of the build. All the parts are metal and very well engineered to fit perfectly with no expense spared. The engine is truly a great way to see how a real engine works and is very educational. Cant wait to build the next model engine!
Cliff Lindsey
My wife stumbled across local engine show in Hellertown, PA. She bought a kit of stirling engine kits, and we've been hooked ever since. Not only are these the best engines we've ever had, they're also fast and fair trade. The shipments always arrive sooner than we expect. 110% happy customers.
Sacha Nichols
A wonderful device, exceptional construction, ease of assembly and works perfectly.I bought one as a gift and I’m so leased with it I will likely buy one for myself. A lot of value for the money.Shipped quickly and carefully packaged. I can recommend them.
Fred Schmint
I ordered this boiler to go with an engine I ordered at the same time. I don't have any boats in which to put them, but my shelves have several other engines/boilers they will fit in nicely with until I can build a boat or two. If this setup works as well as the other boilers/engines I have bought from Stirlingkit, it will be a lot of fun.
Jhonatan Arango
Absolutely fun and educational. This is a very good quality Stirling engine. I became fascinated with Stirling and steam engines recently and bought three for my desktop. My other Stirling engine is the kind you set on a hot beverage and it is also great.This model is very fun and runs great.
