Cameron engine?

Hi
I just purchased this thimble drome car on eBay (waiting for it to arrive) and from looking online I think it's a Cameron engine?? The seller said it was missing a needle valve and from what I've researched online it's missing a rubber pipe. Can any point me in the right direction to get the correct needle valve and pipe.

Thanks in advance

Mods can you move to non Cox engines. Thanks.

That engine has Thimble Drome cast in somewhere on it so no need to move except to Cox models. Cox International used to sell the black tubing but can be found elsewhere. Now the needle valve that's going to be tough, I have seen probably seen a half dozen come up on eBay over the years.

Nice tether car.

Thanks for the information.

I have messaged them to see it they will ship to the UK. I have found 2 fuel lines on Cox international do you know which one will do the job?
Thanks

It would be the .049 ones but looking now makes me wonder if they are long enough. He ships worldwide so no issue there. Maybe ask the length and if he has any longer.
