They set up a shop and started working together. By the end of , Daimler and Maybach had engineered engines that were powered by gasoline. They planned to use these high-speed internal combustion engines in different types of locomotives. A breakthrough came in their career with the invention of the 'grandfather clock,' an engine that had the potential to power riding cars as well as boats.

In , the duo developed a 'carburetor' and patented their enormously successful 'Daimler-Maybach engines.
