you need to run a line from the dashboard to the sparkplug, so when you hit the switch on the dash a spark will engnite the exhaust and the flame will flow!!!
good idea.

Make sure you don't do like Ian and run a wire from the spark plug to the gas tank.

you have a seperate coil for the pipe right?
the idea is to rev the engine,cut the power from the enginge coil-slam the gas-and send powre to the flame thrower coil and then back to the engine coil. All this needs to be done pretty quick so the engine does not die

i have a '57, '65 and 2001. yes, the 2001 is a piece of shit. and the '65? yeah she could use a new interior but she'll leave you and your POS laser choking on exhaust fumes! BTW, i'm a chic.

Ian is such a dipshiat hes on a VW site driving a plymouth, piece of shiat 93 at that. He also has no idea how to run a flamethrower. Iceluke has got it right, but the true way to do this is with a manual choke. Thats why you see this done mostly on old Mercs and such, they all have a manual choke on the dash to dump fuel out the exhaust and viola, flames.
