This needs more up-votes! That'll be one heck of a video. It'd also be funny to see how out-of-balance the whole engine gets and how hard would it be to get it all balanced out.
Ok, you got me. Went from "wtf" to "that can't work" to "how it that working" to "is that actually a thing for real wow" before getting to the punchline. Nicely done.
@@Fetii Technically you can get them to "work" if you modify the shit out of the engine but you'd probably lose 30hp and the engine would last like 5 mins or so :-)
Not necessarily true, well usually not true even. While your intake is done through scavenge air ports in the liner your exhaust is still vented through valves. At least on anything I've worked on, ranging from Detroit diesels to EMDs marine engines. (And Wickmann and various other brands, they don't differ much in design)
If you follow it it'll take you to instagram where there's a Russian caption that translated says "Congratulations! You are very attentive and saw my Easter egg!"
To me this episode is a special one, since I was actually there when they filmed it. Finally got the opportunity to meet with the guys from G54, for the first time since we started collaborating back in 2017. I even made a short cameo appearance (of the "blink and you'll miss it" variety).
Thanks for all your efforts translating Garage 54 for us english only speakers. This has to be to funniest, tongue in check, episode ever! Cheers Mate!
for 20 years I have been trying to teach my kids how to work on there engines. I always started with turn signal fluid and piston return springs. I actually had my oldest son believing that they existed(the boy could not even identify a screw driver) It took his older sister to ruin my joke. This was a wonderful video thank you.
I was like wait is this a thing ? I watched as he claims it's awesome. My common sense says no this can't work how could the pistons go up and down? I saw it with my own eyes the packaging looked real . So i justified there must be space for them. So I hate to admit it but you got me.
Dude... he fooled me too... I've been thinking about it all day. They kinda would create the effect of having more compression but that would cancle out given the springs in the other cylinders... so yeah... been bamboozled
Yeah, just as everyone else is saying, Chrisfix did it as a gag. There are not such things as piston return springs lol. But it does make for an interesting video nonetheless lol. :)
Dont Listen to this Liar! Probably a goon working for BIG OIL. Piston Return springs have been used for a long time, first developed by Prof. Dr. Taehc Duarf in Elbonia. They are a little known accessory that can improve milage by 50% Not more, not less.
Your experiments are matching the real world automobiles current needs practically and some straight forward devastating explanation is like cherry on the cake.
Probally better to shorten the con-rods / weld the spring to piston. (unless its made of that alien metal, that is hard to spell, in relation to where you are...)
Im a retired mech and logically I knew this wouldnt work, but you guys do some crazy shit so ya got me!!!! Very funny Keep up the crazy workl love it and have turned on others here in the states
The only reason it does not start is because the compression is too high now, the springs take up too much space in the combustion chamber rising the compression ratio...maybe drill a couple of holes in every piston! I like the humour in your videos, well done.
For such a long time I've watched these thinking I was watching a bunch of total muppet silly men... While I can't say that was entirely untrue, I can with a doubt say that these are some extremely extremely talented video makers! That box for the springs looked so legit... I almost couldn't believe it!!
Glad you put the making-of bit at the end. I was about to google the product to see what kind of engine application there could possibly be where this thing would actually work in.
You nearly had me there. I thought 'this is a joke right?'. There is no need, or mechanical reason, for return springs. My first thought was, 'what about the combustion chamber and valve movement?'. Nice one guys. Very elaborate and well done. Nice touch. "Made in USA" LOL.
I must admit that because these videos are pretty short you guys had me going especially because they were in a box haha but hey the amount i actually learnt i put a rotary punp on a old car i used to race as a pre 80s vehicles and that gave some great results.
Normal spring material would lose its heat treat from the heat of the combustion chamber, so they are not acting as springs. At best all they would do increase your compression ration slightly. The "Made in USA" was a nice touch.
For those people still in doubt if this could work: It can't, even if you could somehow install it into the cilinder and function. The energy needed to compress the spring, comes from the energy from the other cilinders. So all the energy of a spring releasing wouldnt be enough to compress another spring, due to losses. That alone would mean the engine would run less good. Added to that the loss of cilinder volume, which is also a negative, means you would lose a big amount of energy. All motors are basically 'converters'. A combustion engine converts chemical energy to motion energy. A battery converts chemical energy to electrical energy. A windmill converts motion energy to electrical energy (modern), a nuclear plant converts atomic energy to heat to electrical energy, etc. A combustion engine is a system (like above engines are systems). The energy has to come from somewhere and doesnt magically appear. It is either external, as for instance a sailing ship of windmill, or internal as for a combustion engine. As for a spring; it doesnt convert energy. It stores energy. The energy needed to change its position (energy status) by x, is more than you get back when released to 'relaxed' state. Due to losses, which go to warmth (heating up the system). Same goes for eleastic bands, flying wheels, etc.
Surprised it took so long for someone to post this. Any energy gained from pushing the piston would have been taken from the compression of the spring. And if the could fit, they would have been bouncing around binding up the valved and making a lada mess. The fact that they (might) be for sale on the Internet shows PT Barnum was correct: "Theres a sucker born every minute."
Ghaaa, you almost had me! I almost had a comment done pointing out that the resistence on the upstroke to compress the spring would offset any down gain, probably even a loss of power due to heat and friction.
3mins in heat will turn them into a piece of soft wire and interfear with the valves So interesting to watch to the end. So love this channel always interesting always a laugh to be had. Love to work with these guys.❤
Hi from New Zealand garage 54!! I think I may have seen it all now. Piston return springs!?!! Cant wait to see what the valves think of this. Oh congrats on the game. What a surprise!
14:55 LMAO you guys are hilarious. I was already calling BS because any work used to compress the springs is lost power. I totally missed for a while that the pistons and valves would have no clearance! Fun prank.
That was a good one. I'm watching this and wondering how this could possibly work, and when he started it and drove, I could hardly believe it, but there it was. I mean, I know there's very little clearance there. On many cars, if your timing belt breaks, the pistons will crash into the valves. Very good. You guys are great.
your comment makes no sense, conrod length and crank profile dictates the height of pistons in relation to valves, the stroke isn't altered whatsoever.
Something didn't look right When all the springs were put on they were all at the same level The pistons should be at different heights in the cylinder head
@@Rubensgardens.Skogsmuseum but looking at the video all 4 pistons are down if 2 pistons were up or down then 2 springs would be up or down basically what I'm seeing is all 4 pistons and springs are at the same level

try making a custom crankshaft and camshafts so that all four pistons fire at the same time
I actually really like this idea!
This needs more up-votes! That'll be one heck of a video.
It'd also be funny to see how out-of-balance the whole engine gets and how hard would it be to get it all balanced out.
Cody Wolf with the stock crank and custom cam you could make it into an odd firing pair... 1&4 fire, 180* later 2&3 fire, 540* cycle starts over.
You need to post it on Garaj 54 the russian one i doubt they ever check this one
Google flat plane cranks. Some V8s fire pairs of pistons. TVR used one in the Cerbera.
you should try horse leather belts in your engine for even more HORSE power
💯🤘
Or maybe try fixing horse shoes to the tires. The result is more power and more grip
Horse hair in the fuel tank
Just Make sure the belt is not pig skin, that would be bad, nobody wants a pig of a car.
Thomas LeMay Dude, a pig skin belt would make your car slower, no one would want that
If you also add muffler bearing you will get even more HP (but only if you have enough blinker fluid).
And don't forget to change your blinker fluid before winter.
more HP from the intake cyclone and better fuel from a few lead balls in the tank ... or mix diesel with snake oil.
Make sure to fill your tires with the correct air! you don't want to fill them with summer air while in winter!
You beat me to it. Funny stuff.
The yellow can not run on its own, because the spark reservoir is empty.
That packaging you guys crafted looks better than most retail boxes in the USA now days XD Great Job!

He also forgot to fill his tires up with winter air 🤓
@@Hopinmypony You only have to change the air in your tires in the summer, he didn't show us how to change to winter air 😅.
Don't forget about the radiator bearings too guys! 👻
Also this is the correct way to increase piston to head clearance. The springs gently lift the head up when the pistons are near TDC.
Not sure if you're smoking crack or not
ChrisFix: Hey guysssss.....that was meant as a joke.

Reminded me of those things you plug into 12V socket and you save "UP TO 20%" on fuel xD

For those people still in doubt if this could work:

Same goes for eleastic bands, flying wheels, etc.
Surprised it took so long for someone to post this. Any energy gained from pushing the piston would have been taken from the compression of the spring. And if the could fit, they would have been bouncing around binding up the valved and making a lada mess. The fact that they (might) be for sale on the Internet shows PT Barnum was correct: "Theres a sucker born every minute."
