Hi Jeff, Possible, yes. Reasonable, no. Keeping a consistent fuel-air ratio with two varying loads and a varying char bed porosity is a control system nightmare. If you had two independent mixture control systems and started on gasoline you might get both started.

I think a check valve in each fuel line would be needed but would it be a problem to get the second engine running? My system would consist of a charcoal gas producer with two 6.5hp engines.
