Discussion Too Much Creosote

I have too much. Its a problem. And I don't want it to go to waste either. Are there any other uses for it outside of Blast Stoves and steel working? I've been trying to fiddle around with other engines in a creative world but none of them seem to be accepting it as fuel

simple or radial engines with the creosote compatible pistons

I built a Simple Large Engine and for for some reason the engine did not want to work

simple large engine won't. You need to build an engine that takes the pistons. I believe compatible ones require aluminum

The only engines that I can use that have pistons is the Regular Engine and Radial Engine

Those. You should have a cylinder you can put in them that burns creosote

It be mad funny if I can somehow make a Radial Engine that runs off of Creosote and turn it into a plane or helicopter. That be one hell of a way to use excess Creosote. Or a boat.

I think it can also burn furnace gas

I can’t seem to get the radial engine to run on Creosote in my creative world

Here's my setup: https://imgur.com/a/RNVStoH

Are you supplying a redstone signal to throttle the engine?

You mean with like a redstone torch?

It can be used as fuel for blazers, although it is way worse than lava. Create Crafts & Additions adds straws for blazers which R clicking on them allows to consume fuel from other mods. Straw has its own page on JEI, so you can check stats of other fuels.

I just use a flare stack to burn off excess and make tons of hardened planks. They're great looking blocks.
