A furnace engine is still more or less the same; just with a few more valves.
You need to open up the cold loop main, the hot loop main and the combustion chamber bypass ("hot loop inlet") valve. Then you load up the furnaces and fire them up. Then you drag two plasma canns into the engine core. You wrench one onto the southern hot loop aux port, and the other onto the southern cold loop aux port. Then you open up both of those aux ports. Then you set up both SMES/PSUs in the control room to 200k/200k once the engine output passes 600kw (or whenever they will stay 'Online'). The engine will actually pass into one of the panic phases (engine monitor graphics), peak, then fall off over time. Keeping the furnaces stuffed, especially with plasma ores or something, will keep the output high. Not that it's needed.
