The first iteration of a gasifier I will try to fit on a two-wheel/walking tractor like this, or i'll build one using a ATV drivetrain

(Finland is full of Chinese ATVs with Honda's Gorilla/Monkey/DAX/Z50-type 110CC engines)

It would make a fun thing to use as a tool for hauling agricultural stuff.


And it's road legal in finland if it goes max 15Km/h (I could fit the gasifier on the trailer for driving on the road, and run the engine on E85 off-trailer)

The gearing would be pretty low, so the road consumption would be better if a small pellet/chip gasifier did the job on the max 10km drivings i'd do.
