Doing a bit of calculation, i have come to the conclusion that with my setup, i cannot get it to reach a temperature that is even close to the auto ignition temperature.

As my system is basically open to the intake (vacuum) it is not possible for me to raise the temperature of the steam above 100 deg C. For that i would need ti increase pressure, otherwise it is close to impossible to exceed the boiling temp of water.
