[MacGyver] [Lou Wozniak] is on a objective to develop an interior combustion engine utilizing only hardware store parts. What you see above is his third attempt at it. depending upon your hardware store this may have ventured outside of what they offer since [Lou] changed over to utilizing gasoline. however the very first two attempts were powered by a propane torch fuel canister.
Unfortunately it still isn’t running. however the demo below makes us believe that he’s truly close. Timing is always touchy as well as that seems to be what is triggering the problems. He makes utilize of a great deal of plumbing fixtures. At the ideal you can see the parts (including a peanut butter jar) which make his carburetor with a valve pointing directly up as the choke. The fuel as well as air blend moves down with the pipe to the cylinder as well as valve assembly where it is ignited by the black grill igniter module. His custom-made cut plywood gear moves with the fly-wheel. It triggers his improvised stimulate plug by utilizing a bit of cable to pull on the leaf switch.
We feel like he’s so close to getting this up as well as running. If you have any type of recommendations on where he may be going wrong [Lou] welcomes your input.
