A friend sent me this link. Next time you have a project that seems "endless" keep the goal in mind. A little long but worth watching to the end.

I enjoyed that, thanks. Odd no smoke at the end, must be special fuel.

A few of my friends and I have guessed that it's running on compressed air.

If it were working with compressed air it wouldn't be a combustion engine (but a tricky toy).

I guess it is working with alcohol, but I can not see any carburetor nor spark plug.

Definitely it is working with compressed air.

That was our conclusion; no carb (or carb like thing) and no spark (or spark like thing)...

Well, he says it in the video description twice (in spanish and english), that this engine is running on compressed air...
Not much left to guesswork here.
