    Thank you for making this video! A few years ago in the winter I pulled over to sleep in my van. Woke up and was completely covered in snow, miles away from a town and in the light of the morning, I realised I had parked on the peak of a huge hill so with wind chill factor I was at about -25. I ran my diesel van on veg oil and it had set solid and without the engine ruining I couldn't hear it up in the tank. I had about 400ml of hand sanitizer and used a little to burn on top of the injectors and the rest I heated the container with a lighter and squirted into the air intake. It was rough but it just about started. I always carry it in my van now!

      I've been suggesting graphite as a crankcase lubricant for quite some time now, my thoughts on avoiding overheating would maybe be running a garden hose pouring water over the cylinder head and crankcase. This would maybe help dissipate some of the heat that the oil normally absorbs and dissipates.

    With current prices and low availability of hand sanitizer, I almost think that hitchhiking would be a better option than pouring liquid gold into your tank, even if it worked. Most folks have no more than a quart these days. That means that if your vehicle got 25 mpg on gas and you could make it limp on sanitizer, you would probably have less than 5 miles to a quart. I’ll walk! Thanks for the great video, Todd! Thanks for your service!

    Great work. Always interesting. I was filling up my work van the other day and thought of something that I was always curious about... Is there a way to test the normal everyday gasoline we put in our vehicles? My vehicles' owners manual says to use "top tier, regular 87 octane". What exactly is "top tier" gas? Is there any benefit to using "top tier" gas? What happens when money is tight and you fill up with the cheapest budget gas you can find? Is all "top tier" gas even created equal? Orrrr, is it a big marketing gimmick?
    I've always wondered about the difference in quality between the different brands of gas within the same octane rating. Which one to look for? Which one to avoid? Either way, thanks for all the other mysteries you've solved...

      "Top tier" is Shell and Chevron, primarily. Their quality control is tighter and their fuels have more additives in them for a number of reasons. Top tier diesel has a high cetane rating for easy cold starts and less smoke, as well as lubricity additives to make up for the ULSD requirement. Top tier gasoline has less contaminants and more detergents to decrease the amount of fuel system and combustion chamber deposits that form over time. All fuels will leave deposits in the fuel system and in the combustion chamber; just a fact of physics. The name of the game is to keep it as clean as possible.

I've done it to a B&S engine exactly the way you suggested 15 years ago for a homemade propeller driven vehicle, and it never seized up. A few years ago i converted another engine like that, but this time i added some additional oil passages in the crankcase body just for safety. It works perfectly fine in my homemade tractor, you can watch it on my channel :)

    I am in no way saying this is the miracle cure, but here is my quick story. I have a 1994 Bronco with a 5.8L engine (61,000 miles its my baby), my rear main was leaking, I pulled the engine installed a new seal and yes I did use a micrometer to check the wear on the crank to ensure it was within specs, it was at the lower end but within specs. I used black permetex on the outside of the new seal, ensured everything was super clean (even installed new oil pan and pan gasket) reassembled the entire engine and had a small leak, at the rear main, really small like a spot about the size of a quarter on the driveway. Drove it for about 1000 miles still had this very small leak, so I was either going to pull the engine again (I'm really anal about leaks) but a buddy recommended I try "Blue Devil" rear main seal stuff. What the heck, snake oil never works but it was that or pull my engine again, so I used an 8 oz bottle of blue devil with a new oil change (Mobile One 10w-30) with a Mobile one oil filter after about a week, no kidding it stopped, its been about a month now. I've been keeping a piece of cardboard under my truck, nothing, no leak. Either the blue devil worked or the seal finally seated, maybe its something you could test, again I never buy into snake oil, except sea foam (yep I love that stuff) but Blue Devil has positive results in my truck...or the seal finally seated. My son (who is a Ford Master Tech) and I love your show.

    • @ProjectFarm
      @ProjectFarm  5 лет назад +1

      Impressive results! I used the same product in a very, very leaky power steering rack and pinion and it stopped the bad leak immediately. That was over a year ago and haven't added a drop of PS fluid since. I was shocked that it did the job. Thanks for the positive comment!

    • @wildbill23c
      @wildbill23c 5 лет назад +1

      Its a Ford, its normal to have oil leaks, even right after replacing seals...had every seal and gasket in a Ford Ranger 2.8L V6 engine replaced and it was leaking oil again the next day. Something to check is your PCV valve...if it isn't allowing the engine to vent properly it can cause excess pressure in the crank case and cause oil to be pushed out of seals and gaskets.

    • @Unclejake
      @Unclejake 5 лет назад

      William Todd top end is spotless as far as clean. I ported and polished the intake, installed a mild cam and rolling rockers. I could have changed the dynamic inside the engine, but still no leak, had a small leak back of the valve covers but repaired that, could have been the perfect storm or the snake oil worked. I’d try it again, all the while planning to pull the engine, but the stuff worked for me.

      Short answer, yes. At least in older diesel engines. Not sure about modern ones. Truckers back in the day would dump their used engine oil in the tanks at oil changes. Free BTUs and power. The diesel engine can also run on vegetable oil, but again, not sure about modern diesel engines. Modern diesel engines have a lot of emissions stuff on them that will probably get ruined if you run anything other than diesel.

      @@mycelia_ow There is multiple types of sanitizers. Many sanitizers have to be cut with a chemical or other substance for the sanitizer to be safe and effective to use. The sanitizer in this video is a commercial grade sanitizer, and is incredibly more powerful than the hand sanitizers found in grocery store.
