    Vodka is 40% ABV, so the other 60% is water. Very surprised that engine would run on it... I had a NIGHTMARE scenario back in college where the sorority chick that was driving had water in her gas tank. Conked out going to & from PSU. Can't imagine it was anywhere near 60% water situation though...
    My guess for next episode would be Everclear, but you'll have to cross state lines out of PA to get the 95% stuff.

    I’m going to go ona limb and say that the “magic touch” is just a more comprehensive familiarity with a specific vehicle to the handful of times a mechanic may operate a clients car.
    Kinda like those old school motors where you hear the operator say, “if ya start it up cold, ya gotta smack it twice and hit the primer three times, cuss under your breath and it’ll start up on the 5th try.”

    The metal you found in the last video is the bearings coming apart. That could be why she's struggling in spots still as there is probably very little bearing material left as vegetable oil is not a very long lasting lube. I'd recommend the bearings be replaced if you plan on keeping it a while. The engine is unfortunately getting close to locking up

    Condensation buildup in the carburetor of older cars, can be caused from using "lower" proof alcohol, as the water content isn't fully evaporated, so it just builds up and eventually flood the carburetor. Could that be the issue?

    • @emanuellandeholm5657
      @emanuellandeholm5657 Месяц назад

      This is a 2nd gen Ranger, I think with a four cylinder. They were phasing out carburetors in favor of jettronic and injection during this generation. I tried to look under the hood in one of the previous videos but I can't really tell if it's fuel injected or not. Obviously condensation is not great for injectors either.

    I believe vodka would run the truck happily, but you would probably need ideally a different air/fuel ratio to petrol, so changing idle control and spark plug gaps and I guess carb tuning would probably have it running much better than what you got it to. I knew it wouldn't kill the truck before because it didn't crank, which isn't a fuel issue. Look forward to seeing more experiments on danger Ranger!
