Hmm... Thanks. I wasn't planning on using a purge because the oxidizer is gox
(not lox) and the engine is pretty small but definitely worth considering.
Actually I was planning on doing exactly as Thomas suggested ie. Turn off the
oxidizer once the main engine has been started and then just run fuel as a
coolant. Otherwise how do you keep the igniter from getting too hot?
This is purely a test stand engine BTW.
