Thank you!
I call bull!!
Anyone else out there that is even remotely like me has entertained the thought of a cheap alternative fuel for his car, truck, or power equipment!
This guy is doing what I cant, and I really, truly appreciate his efforts!
Keep doing what you are doing, Farm Project!
Will an engine run on anal lube... Or will anal lube work as engine oil... Asking for a friend
@@junepaul7843 lube can work as a oil I belive look up life od
LOL! And won’t try on our own equipment! Gotta love it! :D
Your alternative fuel test videos never get boring 😀
Thank you very much!!
@@ProjectFarm NO thank you!
In 1982 a friend and I went camping. The fuel pump in my VW broke while we were deep in the mountains! I pulled the fuel line off the pump and plugged it into a bottle of charcoal lighter fluid. Then I turned the bottle upside down and strapped it above the carburetor with a bungee cord. I poked a vent hole to prevent vacuum lock. That quart of charcoal lighter fluid was enough to get us down the mtn to a repair shop!
Nice! Glad this did the trick!
Classic MacGruber.
Those vws man
VW,= 4 Briggs & Stratton engines with common crank shaft and camshaft therefore it will run on almost anything flammable! As with a lot of alder engines, Pre 1974, (first computers).
Now we know that a fire needs three things to burn, ignition, fuel, oxygen, for most fires. So if you lit a match it would be the catalyst, that leaves either substance being burned , or the oxygen as the true fuel?
Remember all fires need oxygen, except some metals, such as Magnesium, this metal gives off oxygen when it burns, thus most firefighters will foam it down and let it burn it self out.
Patrick Fennessy,
Remember the Fire triangle!
The Real MVP is that green mower. Its been through hell the last year....
Great point! Amazed it has lasted so long. Thank you!
When he was putting the new spark plug and head gasket on that mower i actually said wow that thing has probably had more spark plugs and head gasket changes that pretty much any other lawn mower put in service
… and still 110 psi compression!! MVP is right.
That's because it's an old B&S. Can't kill em.
Lawn mower parts cashier must wonder why you buy 40 head gaskets a week
lol. Great point!
This week we're going to find out if an engine can run on old head gaskets
At this point he could probably open an equipment repair shop for anything and everything sporting Briggs and Stratton model x.
Rtb gasket maker
I swear he’s gotta order these from amazon now. Has to be much cheaper from there n
Two Cycle Engine at the store: "Hooray, he chose me, I'm going to my forever home ....OH NO it's the guy from Project Farm!!"
lol. Thank you
Ehhh... he’s actually pretty fair to the engines.
Not a two cycle but ok
Sure the engine may take some abuse, but at the end of the day, he'll mostly clean up the engine, change the oil, spark plug, gaskets and such
@@RizLazey yeah. Any engine at Project Farm certainly gets better treatment than at my house!
I was a Still Photographer at a Federal Government testing facility. You are at least equal and often superior to all of the engineers and technicians I observed over the years. It takes a lot to impress me at this age but you have managed to do it!
Wow, thanks!
Love how it went from basic small engine “will it run in this engine” to multiple engines and even a go kart tests and stuff. Love this channel omg!!
Thank you!
I’m guessing your neighbours are like “honey, he’s doing it again” every time you start up a mower
Lol
I wonder if they placed a safety barricades around his property, to protect their homes?... I hear it now... Honey run for cover he’s experimenting with rocket fuel in lawnmower engines again !
He has the rv again, I don’t think it has breaks ... but he has nitro glycerin in a jar and a big brick wall!!! Testing to see how high it will launch!
lol
@@gettintheresafelywithpatf2869 LMFAO
Project Farm:
"Do you still have that lawn mower for sale?"
Craigslist seller:
"Yes I do. Do you have a small lawn that needs mowing?"
Project Farm:
"No I want to see if a lawn mower can run on Preparation-H."
lol. Nice!
HAHA EPIC!
@M Harris You have TDS, bad.
@M Harris Well mine wasn't.

Until I saw this video I had completely forgot about this story. When I was a kid my father and I were camping in the National Forest and we were way way in the middle of nowhere. When we were packing up to leave on Sunday we realized that the truck was very low on fuel and we were miles away from a gas station. We of course ran out before we made it to the station and it wasn’t safe to walk due to bear activity in the area. (This was before cell phones) The only option we had was a gallon of Coleman lantern fuel. Dad poured it in the tank and hoped for the best. The truck started, ran like crap and knocked like crazy but it got us to the gas station. Needless to say we always packed a 5 gallon gas can every time we went camping after that.
Thank you for sharing this experience! Hope this video will help someone out that's in a similar situation in the future.
The sad part about the story is that the forest was probably safer than the city he lives in...
Couldn't resist, lol!
Bears? Why wouldn't you pack a suitable defense firearm in bear country?
I've come within 20 yards of a sow with cubs, I was very glad I had a rifle aimed at her while I yelled at her. Luckily she gathered her cubs and left, but I met a guy years later who ended up dispatching an angry bear with an axe. Never will I venture into the woods without a defensive tool.
Daddy did his job well.
I love how Project Farm guy's enthusiasm in his videos has really increased over the past years.
Thank you for the feedback
but can you cook burgers with pump gas when you forget the lighter fluid
Hi Mustie 1, Great point on the pump gas! Might get a little exciting when the flame makes contact with vapors. Looking forward to your next video!!
I thought lighting fluid was only to get the briquetes burning; not with the fluid.
Oh believe me you can! Just ask my drunk-ass neighbor! He cooked his burgers, the grill, and half his freaking house! The vapors lit off, he dropped the gas can which tipped over toward the patio door. But he and his dog were great!
Mustie your videos are awesome, I loved the fork lift one.
b3j8 wow more details on this story please
Great. I told my wife I couldn't mow today because I was out of gas. Now she's seen this!
lol. Great point! Sorry about that.
I have a good excuse for our mower I just say the battery is dead :p
Just tell her you're worried about the excess carbon deposits it'll leave and the pinging when under load causing damage.
Have a giant BBQ so you're out of everything combustible.
I just can't get enough of these "Will an engine run on ???" Videos. I love them and an am genuinely surprised by how many things will work as quite reasonably as a fuel.
Thanks for sharing!
Since I just sat through a venom rip resistant glove commercial, you should test different latex and vinyl gloves
Great test idea! Thank you
I’m sorry ... no you can’t test them on me! One way traffic only!!! 😬😬😬 lol
I can attest to the durability of Venom rip-resistant gloves.
It is now the only disposable glove I'll buy!
@@gettintheresafelywithpatf2869 if you don't run on fuel or electricity, and not made of metal or plastic, I think you are safe!
Video idea... Test various brands of car batteries. Check actual cold cranking amps, etc. How they react in cold conditions, do they have enough starting power to crank what they claim. Etc....
Great video idea! I'll see what I can do.
@@ProjectFarm I'm guessing there's maybe a handful of actual manufacturers. What I hate is that most modern batteries seem to be "maintenance free" and only last at best two years or so, then tail off or start leaking. I remember a decade ago, even the cheapest of batteries had caps to refill with distilled water; they seemed to last a good while longer.
I think this would be a great test
Very good idea!
@@MattExzy Two years is pretty pathetic - I just replaced a pretty cheap, crappy one which was 7 years old before showing any problems.
As for manufacturers, one company (previously part of Johnson Controls, now owned by Brookfield Business Partners) called Clarios manufactures around a third of them, supposedly. Brands include Bosch, Varta (literally the same ones, those), and Optima, among a wide variety of others including quite a few 'house brands'. Not to say they're all the same batteries, but they are all under one umbrella. Exide are another major manufacturer, but I don't know of any brands they OEM off the top of my head (I'm sure they do, though).
There are dozens if not hundreds of smaller companies, but the likes of Clarios and Exide cover most of the market, and their prices reflect the economy of scale..
i subbed ages ago, i think it was a seafoam video. i want to say you had about 21k subs then. i still watch your videos but im besides myself how much your channel has grown! keep it up and looking forward to the next
Thank you very much!!!
Hey I made this suggestion!!! Awesome Project Farm!
Thank you for suggesting this one and sorry it's taken me so long to finally test it!
your such a kind decent person kudos :) happy i found you mate these videos are not usually my style but i love watching you do them
Thank you very much for the positive comments!!
I’d love to see an engine running on denatured alcohol fuel and the oil as Corn Oil for popcorn.
Thank you for the video idea!
@@ProjectFarm gotta do it . we all must know
I love your crazy and creative videos! :D You answer questions I didn't know I even had.
Thank you very much!! Maybe these experiments will help someone someday.
I have a question..
What that mouth do?
Cant get enough of these videos! One of my favorite channels!
Thank you very much!!
@@ProjectFarm x
You make the best videos. It’s nice to have solid evidence behind our methods. Have you thought about making a video on what is the best way to store a small engine? Testing methods like stabol, sea foam, filling tank all the way, running tank dry, using non ethenol, and how long has last? That would be awesome and would help a lot. In fact I’d be willing to donate a little cash to help with the video.
Another great video! You're having way too much fun on that go cart. :-)
Thank you very much and looking forward to your next video!!
that kart looks like a blast!
You have to be one of the best channels I’ve watched over the years. Just straight the the point and informative, also while being fun to watch.
It’d be cool to see the differences in different octanes of fuel and different heat ratings of spark plugs through a clear head!
Thank you for the video idea!
I watch all the commercials to support your channel. THANK YOU FOR ALL THESE VIDEOS!
Thanks
Let's be real, nobody reaaaaly has lighter fluid left after a cookout. That's... against the rules isn't it?
lol. Great point! Thank you
You do if you go camping with ProjectFarm, im sure lighter fluid is the last item he would use to start a fire.
@@Jeff-jr3sg letsdig18 uses diesel to start his brush fires!
Or eyebrows if you do things that way
😂 No❗️Just 2 or 3 ounces for a whole bag of charcoal and wait at least 10 minutes before lighting it, then 20 minutes before cooking on it. Unless you want your food to taste like a tire fire. It's called lighting fluid, not cooking fluid.
Who wants to poop a refinery? ⛽️
man no bull crap...today i ran out of fuel for my lawnmower, looking around i see the lighter fluid..i'm thinking naaaaawww prob wouldn't work QUICKLY CROSSED MY MIND and then you post this video i'm thinking WTF.... lolol 😂😂
edit.
so i tried it on my old lawnmower...smelled liked burnt fajitas!! 👍😂👍
lol. Great timing! Did you use charcoal lighter fluid?
lol ran to get gasoline... but going to try it on a old lawn mower. great video man! very theral
I have used lighter fluid to start and run engines with fuel problems. Runs fine. Have to keep spraying it on the air cleaner. I could often get engines with old gas in them to start and offer, to run once warm. Probably better for the engine than starting fluid.
Oooh - After seeing the nasty residue on the head of the lawnmower I think I'll start using gasoline for my hot dogs.....!
Lol
This would be a good way to see if adding something like STP octane boost would make an improvement in the go cart ( or any other brand of octane boost) ..another good test video..octane boosters!
Thank you for the video idea!
From the very beginning I thought there was NO way it would work. I'm surprised by this one!
Thanks for the feedback.
Project Farm at the store: "Hi, I need a 50-pack of lawn mower head gaskets and 25 bottles of lighter fluid."
Lol
imagine the epicness of a paul harrell project farm cross over:
I need 50 briggs head gaskets, 25 quarts of lighter fluid, 4 of the $2 concrete blocks, 10 bottles of Shasta, a bag of oranges, some pork chops, and some ribs.
Lets try some 80 proof tequila, vodka, Bacardi 151 rum and some good ole moonshine! Should run better than e-85 and you might get happy testing the stuff! If you leave the bar at night after having one social drink 2 hours before and find someone siphoned your gas tank! Well, run back in and by some liquor for your tank. Great review but what would lighter fluid do to the cats and other emissions equipment? It doesn't look like it is as clean burning as other fuel.
I dont know if 80 proof would work maybe 180 proof everclear
Why would you think liquids with less of the same alcohol in it would work better? Both e85 and all alcohol for consumption are Ethyl alcohol, also know as ethenol. Alcohol+ gasoline is obviously a better fuel then water with some alcohol such as the things you listed
Thank you for the video idea!
@@jaydunbar7538 I know alcohol as I made it and ran it in vehicles back in the 70's OPEK oil fiasco. Never mixed it with gasoline as ethanol is an excellent fuel alone. 80 prof alcohol runs great in gasoline engines, you can run from 70 to 90 prof with 75 being the most efficient in gas engines. I run alcohol in my mower and have been doing so since the 70's I still have my Ford 390 V-8 running on ethanol. I ran alcohol in 6 cylinder engines, fire breathing V-8's and race cars. Indy racers run ethanol because it is safer than methanol or gas. Do some research on alcohol fuel before you become critical of someone in the know!.
Could you evaluate laundry detergent? There are so many brands and variations within the same brand all with so many claims. Thanks for your great work!
Great recommendation!! Thank you
It would be nice to know which brand/variation a lawnmower would run best on.
As a lube truck mechanic, I also would like to know which laundry detergent is best.
Also, Zep TKO is the best hand cleaner, prove me wrong!
Fabric softener is horrible stuff.
First off, the smell stays around for days, which is offputting and gross.
Then there are the chemicals in there that ruin the flame retardant qualities of many fabrics.
A wax like coating on washcloths and the like keeps them from properly absorbing water, and this builds up over time.
Not to mention the fact that dirt seems to stick to the clothes faster the next time you wear them.
So skip the fabric softener.
Congratulations and kudos to O'Reilly Auto Parts for injecting very, very short ads! I appreciate that they're not long and disruptive to watching the video, and I am still humming the catchy jingle. I wish more advertisers would follow O'Reilly's lead, but we see some advertisers injecting minutes-long ads.
Thanks for the feedback.
I'll bet a diesel will run on charcoal lighter fluid.
Great video idea!!
Agreed... Great idea. I'd predict it works
@@supabiscuit It would probably run pretty hot though.
diesels run on almost anything
Well have you heard of a runaway diesel? It’s when it starts running off of the oil instead of the actual diesel
Video idea: Best wheel bearing grease
Thank you for the video idea!
I love how specific he is with the hypothetical situation
Thanks!
Man, after watching all your videos on alternative fuel I’ve realized that a small carbed engine will LITERALLY RUN ON ANYTHING
You are right! Thank you
Well, yeah, it's a "combustion engine". You just need to adjust for stoichiometry .
Alucard Pawpad anything else you would like to add, Mr. Nye?
@@ElGuero227 Yeah. It's literally just a syringe that squirts air and fuel in. If it can burn outside, it can burn inside. :>
Alucard Pawpad Thank you Bill, very cool!
Before watching - sure it will, but depending upon the flashpoint, knocking may occur and the quality of the burn and resulting deposits, as well as the energy content will vary. Thus the 'quality' of the fuel may be detrimental to the engine.
If Project Farm has taught me anything its after doing this run some antifreeze in the gas to clean out the buildup and you will be fine again...
Thank you!
5:35 "...very interesting to see how much this engine pings"
thats some high quality testing there engineer.
Thank you!
Notification came up in the middle of a Jerry Rig Everything video... but I can go back to that later. 😁
Thank you!! Hope you enjoy the video!
A serious application question.
This shows that engines will run but with less performance and potential damage. ( carbon fouling)
I would be curious to know if adding the lighter fluid to existing fuel gains an advantage in extending range, or negates the performance of the existing fuel.
For an example:
An 11 gallon tank holding 10 gallons of gasoline .
At 10mpg would be a range of 100 miles.
The lighter fluid has less performance so less mpg.
So would adding a gallon of lighter fluid to the tank gain mileage?
( 100+ )
Or would the lighter fluid taint the existing fuel and have a shorter range? (100-)
Would it be better to add the fuel at the beginning of the trip, or just before the tank is empty?
With the carbon fouling I would say this only be used in a real emergency vs an inconvenient emergency.
The cost of repairs compared to the inconvenience of walking 5 miles to a station and returning may not be worth it.
Something to consider while drinking from my project farm coffee mug 😁
Thank you for the video idea!
You know, I have seen a lot of channels get big and keep doing the same ol thing in the same damn way. You have been getting new cameras and more equipment to test with. Keep it up!

@@flames5000 yuck.....dont mention those inbred hacks here
70% Vodka mix with 30% charcoal fluid.
70% Perfume mix with 30% jet fuel .
50% bioethanol and 50% isopropyl alcohol.
Let's do mixing several fluids together and see if they become more potent, and or mixtures that might be very good but help save budget (economically speaking).
Thank you for the video idea!
I cannot wait for your videos to publish. I legitimately wait for the end of Monday to come. It’s what keeps me going thru the horrors of starting a new week. Just when i think there is no way i can make it thru monday i think to myself PF will have a video uploaded by the time i lay down in bed tonight. After we get the kids in bed and I can relax and watch youtube i cannot wait to watch your videos! Thank you for doing what you do! Now I shall find out will a gas engine run on kerosene because i wrote this comment before even watching because i know its going to be awesome!

Thank you very much!!
WAIT, you forgot the most important part. You have to add charcoal to the gas tanks. Then you put the fluid in the tank.
Maybe lighting the charcoal IN the tank then starting the engine would work better.🤜🤛
lol. Thank you!!
Maybe if he wants to set his shop on fire lol
boom
0:35 The perfect displacement for an engine.
Edit:
You should try Isopropyl alcohol as a fuel. The 99% stuff.
Thank you!
Carlos Pulpo The first International IDI had a displacement of 6.9 litres and 420 cubic inches.
Should be similar to E100 (commonly sold in brazil or 92-95% ethanol) just need to adjust the engine air fuel ratio properly and start it over 15c or use petrol/gasoline to cold start. Also here's his video about the 91% ruclips.net/video/hJKZ_41wbcM/видео.html, he should make a new one though.
@@strawberryroan1941 13 letter shit spreader :D International. im sorry I had to lol an im a ford guy.
Baylans mess of a sh!t ton of videos Haha I say that joke all the time! I am a Ford guy myself, but no doubt old international engines were excellent, like the DT-436, or DT-466 or the IDIs, really good engines. They sounded pretty mean to lol
How 'bout an "old gas" vs fresh gas comparison? Some videos on RUclips have addressed this to varying degrees, but none of them dig into the subject, or present any hard numbers, like you always do. Thanks for all the great vids!
Great video idea! Thank you
One thing I pondered was if lighter fluid causes damage to the fuel lines or anything else. Is it reactive with metals etc?
I don't believe it'll cause any harm. The sometimes are packaged in metal containers.
Naphtalene is kindda kerosene with a more volatile part.
How about rubber hoses and gaskets etc?
@@B1GDaddyFatStax All fine, it has a lower aromatic content than gasoline and isn't as polar as alcohol. Not problematic in those areas.
A large portion of gasoline for engine use is technically this stuff already. Just add butane, heptane, octane, and other additives or hydrocarbon fractions to the mix.
You should see if a small engine can run on lighter fluid vapor!!
Thanks whoever recommended this one. Pretty neat tbh
Thank you!
Swear I smelled that running but just the neighbors 😁
lol. The exhaust actually did smell like a BBQ. Very pleasant smell!
Same for me 😂
Could you run an engine on cheap hash oil or CBD oil? Duuud, what if u ran out of gas on the way back from Colorado or Area 51?... Great videos, thanks!...
Thank you for the video idea!
lol BRUH?
That would be really wasteful. Neither of those are cheap
Hemp oil is inexpensive and can be converted to diesel pretty easilly.
@@jk-76 hemp is yes but CBD is from marijuana, hemp oil is entirely separate.
Growing up in Alaska, I heard a lot of tales told about emergency measures to get a person home.
One in particular would be suited to your channel:
Leather piston rings cut from a waist belt.
Supposedly soaking the leather in oil before cutting reduces unwanted swelling.
I seem to remember a tech instructor mentioning leather rings in early engines as well.
Ive never heard of leather for the rings but my grandpa has a 1910 sears and Roebuck horseless carriage and in that thing the belt that drives the fans is leather, the brake pads are leather the seal for the oil pan also leather and the bottom of the jug for the piston think where the cylinder wall meets to the crankcase but they can separate uses leather

On occasion, as a young person with not much sense, I'd run the push-style lawnmower on charcoal lighter fluid. Fortunately, most lawnmowers of this style aren't subjected to heavy loads--they just spin the blade. Worked well enough and didn't kill the thing.
Thanks for the feedback.

Another great video! Thank you sir 😆 I know you’ve tested way to take rust off of metal in videos before. An idea I had was to test solvents/degreasers and how well they work at remove oils from parts without scrubbing. Keep up the fantastic work, we appreciate it!
Thank you
I really hope you keep these videos coming for as long as possible. Like maybe the next 30 years. I've really learned a lot and had fun watching
Thank you!

Thanks for watching! lol
Answering questions I didn't know I needed the answers to haha! You should do a windshield washer fluid comparison to see which is best. You can test freezing point, bug washing ability, corrosion on paint etc. With winter coming up it may be interesting for viewers. Keep up the great content!

I like this one
Loving the videos, and the comments are hilarious afterwards! Keep it up!
Glad you enjoy it!
That little rotary engine is awesome! Need to put that on the go kart and see wat kinda speed u can get!
That would be cool!
I was happy to see the Wankel rotary engine. Now you can visually seen one of it’s inherent problems; With combustion taking place in only ~ 1/4th of the engine it heats and expands unevenly. Other than the oil burning issue I’ve wondered why there aren’t more generators with Wankel engines. Smaller, lighter, creates more power and if it’s going to run in only a narrow rpm range it can be tuned to be more efficient. Plus it can run on a broader range of liquid fuels more easily.
Great point!
👍's up guys thanks for taking us along with you
Project Farm! Your one stop shop for all things Briggs and Startton. Lol
Nice job as always!
Thank you!
Your videos like this reminds me of when I was a. Teenager and my friends and I would put anything petroleum based in our old 63 dodge dart with a slant six we mixed diesel and kerosene with the gas and it burned oil so we would swipe any kind of oil from one of my friends dads who was a logging equipment guy. That crankcase saw everything from transmission fluid to 90 weight gear oil and every weight of engine oil made! Thanks for your hard work making entertaining and informative videos!
Great memories! Thank you very much!!
Another Awesome video. Testing different types of fuels are my favourite videos.
Thank you!
