  • RUN ENGINE ON TURPENTINE? Let's find out! Turpentine used as a gasoline substitute to test for fuel efficiency, carbon buildup, and overall performance in the Farmabago during timed speed runs. I had a lot of fun testing turpentine! Please let me know in the comments section if there are other fuels you'd like to see tested.

      @@YouGotsTheRabies jets are calibrated for the proper air to fuel ratio not btu. Since the carburator pulls fuel based on the venturi effect, more energetic fuels will tend to raise the rpm causing the governor to close the throttle valve lowering the air flow and reducing fuel to match. This will make the engine use only enough fuel to maintain the same rpm. Of course re-jetting could help if it requires a different air to fuel ratio. Fuels with higher btus should run longer for the same load

    Video suggestion: Home-extracted fish oil as a substitute for 2-stroke oil.
    My great-grandfather was an avid fisherman, and he saved the remains of his catches in a freezer. When he'd accumulated enough, he boiled the oil out and used that stuff for all sorts of applications--most commonly, to coat farming implements to prevent corrosion from the ammonia-rich mud and vegetation around his chicken houses.
    He occassionally mentioned that he also ran it in his chainsaws. I always suspected he was yanking my leg: as I don't recall ever once seeing him add it into a gas can. But nonetheless, I've always wondered...

    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Morey
    “During his experiments, Morey discovered that the vapor of turpentine, when mixed with air, was explosive. He recognized its potential, developed an engine, and wrote an unpublished description in 1824, which he modified in 1825 and 1826.”
    As I live about a mile from Lake Morey, deep in the piney woods, I came to learn
    of Morey’s development of the IC engines. Thought you might find it interesting.

    For winter, did we test what melts snow / ice better yet? Like regular rock salt, those fancy salt pellets and not sure what else we can test that's in their part of the world that melts snow and ice.
    See how it melts snow when its slightly warmer (like midday, sun's out not freezing cold weather when someone would be shoveling), freezing cold (its just basically kept snowing like a blizzard for a few days so temp's still too cold to melt by itself).
    And which product keeps the snow and ice off the driveway better after a period of time.

    I just love these engine test videos. They really are great fun to watch and I genuinely appreciate the effort you go to. Something I have noticed with these engines is that there seems to be a similar amounts of residue left in the combustion chamber after these short tests. Even after you have gone to the effort of cleaning things up. Now I'm not sure but either US fuel is rather dirty ( I doubt this) or perhaps the rings/cylinders might be slightly bypassing just enough oil to gum up the combustion chamber in the short amount of run time of these tests. I know you do compression tests and those results are normally consistent with reasonable results but is this something that can be standardised across your testing engines?
    Would there be any value in giving your test engines a freshen up with some new rings and a light cylinder hone to try an minimise by-pass and clean up that residue build up?
    Next thing would be to find a few carby's that are the same and are adjustable that can be fitted to each engine. Also set them up with your choke plate mod.
    I know you always do comparisons tests using a control in each of your videos which something I'm sure the RUclips community like my self appreciate and it highlights your commitment to impartiality and honest reporting of your results. Anyway I'll wrap this up with, Love your work, keep it up.

    Turpentine likely has a different stoichiometric afr than gasoline, so running pure turpentine without adjusting the injection amount is going to result in the engine running too learn or too rich, which is why you are seeing more deposits, its incomplete combustion. I can't find the stoich afr for turpentine offhand, but I can check later.

      Stoich ratio is only off by 10% so likely not enough to matter for deposits. Based on this test and what I know it would seem that turpentine is a great solvent but a dirtier burning fuel than gasoline. This makes sense as turpentine was a competitor to gasoline in the early 20th century and it lost out.
