I believe the top coil was so that anytime steam was up,,the gasolene would be a ready vapor,,at boiler saturated temp,,that being OVER boiling point of gas,,,Seems like a good idea to me,,,But what I see now'days are most all [including the 100% original cars,,haha ],,have later burner features,,and a gas pilot and k-1 mainfire,,An original burner can be an ugly animal I fear,,as well as the rest of it,,,The water indicator w/ string and pulley,,,,,the copper shell boiler,,NOT STEEL,,oh fun,,,Back to the question,,,I would guess the top coil would make things work better,,,I assume ??? that the steam autto was between the top coil and the [across the burner] vaporizer,,Hmmm,,,Is annyone running the superheater as it was on early cars,,[Driven into the tubes,],,,the one that if ya crack a tube,,,,boiler water/steam goes to the engine DIRECT bypassing the throttle,,Hey guys,,,,don't get too pickey,,Enjoy the ride while we all can,,There is only a limited amount of time for us to share all this info,,Cheers Ben
