  • Welcome to Warped perception.

  • and I'm just going to jump right into it and show you what we got. we have this L head

  • Briggs & Stratton engine.

  • with a transparent head that we build a few months back.

  • Good job Maddie.

  • Wow it looks great.

  • Yes.

  • How old are you Maddy.

  • Two.

  • One two.

  • 2 years old?.

  • Thank you.

  • Your turn.

  • My turn?.

  • Here you go thank you.

  • For an ultra-high speed shoot we were doing for vision research.

  • we were showing the combustion process from rich to lean.

  • In ultra-high speed or Ultra slow motion.

  • And the other day this video showed up in my subscriptions feed of these guys.

  • We're here at our buddy John's and he's uncovering the Oakland.

  • That built something similar to the engine that I built that I just showed you.

  • Oh no we broke our flywheel that's it for that.

  • And it reminded me of those clips.

  • Now we're going to burn a few different types of fuel.

  • The first one is going to be straight gasoline.

  • The second is going to be rubbing alcohol which a friend of mine Chris suggested.

  • I really want to see the unburned exhaust gases.

  • Exiting the exhaust port.

  • So I'm going to go ahead and remove the muffler completely.

  • Get some earplugs.

  • And fire this thing back up.

  • Ready to rock and roll.

  • So that's what the alcohol looks like.

  • And after looking at the slow-motion footage.

  • Seems like the alcohol kind of rinsed out the cylinder.

  • And cleaned up some of the soot from the gasoline.

  • And interestingly enough.

  • It was really weird.

  • It was like the cylinder was full of liquid.

  • It wasn't even vaporized.

  • The spark was still igniting it.

  • Enough to push the Piston down and run the engine.

  • So it was kind of interesting.

  • Not for this one I'm actually going to put some safety goggles on.

  • Because I've had some bad past experiences with acetylene.

  • Alright so what I'm going to do is I'm going to start it up on the alcohol.

  • And then add the acetylene.

  • Which is going to be this one right here.

  • Here it goes.

  • That was the coolest thing ever.

  • So I'm going to do that one more time.

  • But this time.

  • I'm going to turn the acetylene all the way up.

  • Full open.

  • Because there's so much soot coming out of there.

  • But I think we're still going to be able to see it.

  • So let's see that one more time With the high speed camera.

  • With the acetylene a hundred percent wide open and almost no alcohol.

  • Here it goes.

  • Whoa what happened there let's try that one more time.

  • But that put put that out.

  • Okay here it goes one more time.

  • Well it looks like we overdid it on the acetylene a little bit.

  • But props out to Kevin from the backyard scientist for suggesting the acetylene.

  • Last because now the head seems like it's completely unusable.

  • I'm really curious to see if this engine will actually run on tequila.

  • That's about it well that was a lot of fun and I hope you enjoyed that episode.

  • And the most important thing to me is that you watch and enjoy our videos.

  • I know the equipment that we use is out of the reach of most of us.

  • But the ideas are not.

  • So if you have any ideas that you want to see come to life.

  • Just let us know.

  • let us know in the comments or send us a message.

  • And as usual.

  • Tell us what you think in the comments below.

  • Don't forget to like share and subscribe.

  • Oh and also.

  • Let me know if you want to see this engine run on tequila.

  • And I'll try it out I don't know if it's worth it.

  • Because the alcohol was kind of.

  • Yeah I was kind of like looked like the inside of a washing machine.

  • But I will try it if you guys want to see me try it.

  • So let us know.

  • Until next time adios
