      You got to open up that exhaust port on the main motor my dude. You are trying to move massive amounts of gas through there with next to no pressure differential, you can't create velocity to scavenge without a pressure differential.

      You can also wipe the tire with acetone or some other solvent, it removes any traces of oil or grease and also removes dust, that usually improves the traction

    • @timtaler5335
      @timtaler5335 Рік тому +13

      Engine and exhaust could have different timing. The powerband isn’t typically for a two stroke engine with no variable intake or exhaust. If engine and exhaust timing match perfectly you will have one peak, not two.

      He's in NZ and has a chassis dyno and tests his Toyota 4AGE equipped 'turd' as it's affectionately known. He tests intake length, exhaust headers, camshafts, valve timing, compression so on and so forth. It is very grass roots like this. It is a gem of a channel. It took me more than a year to realize what an excellent channel it actually is.

    Lifting the vehicle off the rolls reminds of about 25 years ago with our Clayton 8.65" dual roll emissions dynos with clutch-able flywheels and hydro-kinetic power absorption unit (PAU, for road load simulation). The flywheels were to simulate the vehicle mass in 125 pound increments from about 2000 pounds to 6000 pounds. Each increment needed a friction power loss calibration. With no electric motor on the system, a vehicle had to spin the dyno system (rolls and flywheels) up above 55 mph. Then an air jack system would be actuated to lift the rear bumper of the vehicle so that the drive wheels were off the dyno rolls. A timer measured the time to coast between 55 and 45 mph. The coast time and flywheel inertia setting was used to calculate and adjustment to the road load setting for the amount of friction in the dyno system for each flywheel combination. A table of friction power adjustment was created and used to adjust the road load setting for the 50 mph road load horsepower setting that was entered into the PAU controller.
    Calibrations are mostly automated and simpler with the 48inch diameter single roll dynos with electric road load and inertia simulation that replaced those old Clayton dynos. Electric dyno is mechanically simpler too, without a bunch of flywheel clutches and bearings that needed replacement every now and then.

    It feels like everything just went up a notch and got more interesting and exciting when you shifted direction. I feel like this has helped make the path forwards clearer. Applaud you for the ability to do this, especially when it involves abandoning something you spent so much time working on like the dyno and beam mounted setup. I think you've nailed it with the last two videos, and the plan you have from here - you seem reinvigorated and I think all of us are too. Loving the editing too - it's just so fun and engaging to watch. Can't wait for next weekend!

    If you look at your power, it stays very constant while rpm increases (and torque decreases of course). That's a bit strange, to me this looks like a possible flow issue if some sort, either intake or exhaust

    My work place gets like yours, I focus in something, create a big mess, once I've got it right, and happy with it, I clean up afterwards, then start the next project. It's a vicious cycle, but I love it.
    I bought not long ago, one of the China Cheap pistons, to fit into my YAMAHA AG100 1973 382, I had to cut the intake ports into piston and it meant I didn't have to go first over size bore, just honed it to suite, so 3 pistons first bore, I got nearly 6000 miles out of it, I could feel the compression drop recently, then on the 26/1/23 the locating pin of piston, for the top ring, worked lose, then bounced around on top of piston, did some minor damage, luckily I had a spare barrel and matching piston, genuine Yamaha, that'll keep the old girl going for a while.

    So happy to See the bike on the dyno doing repetetive tests!
    Thoughts on supercharging:
    - when pipe is on it will pull in air/fuel during blowdown. With pressurerized air/fuel even more will go down out the exhaust. So maybe less blowdown with pressurerized crankcase?
    - reed valves work via pulses (right?) but with sc you will maybe push the reeds open or even risk of breaking them?
    - could you again tell us the timing of the ports?
    - so basically if you want to trap more air/fuel in cylinder blowdown does not help
    - even the pipe will work somehow against the trapping of mixture in the cylinder.
    Rethinking the design?
    What do other 2-stroke supercharged folks do?
    You are awsome dude!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

    I'd just like to say thank you. You've inspired me to turn in a totally different direction. I'm 51 and I'm going back to work, I got jack shit for hands on experience, but I understand HOW a motor works, I welded for a while, in my welding shop there was a powder paint booth and oven and lastly I've spent countless hours working on bicycles growing up. So, logically I came to the conclusion that I need to start my own my business, so I'm going to build custom motorized bicycles. I've got an a absolutely unique hook to bring in customers, unfortunately THIS particular bit of info must stay secret until it's time to implement it. I'm in the process of devouring every video you've put out. I really enjoy your videos and especially your delivery, very engaging, I doff my hat to you good sir.

      Try to keep your prices low unless your near bigger income areas. Used to build them and couldn't sell for 500 bucks but mid income area in Indiana. Used to make custom headbadges for bikes as well

    cold air is slower than hot air in terms of wavespeed. so more than one reflection in exhaust and or intake become out of phase at the dip. if you push it out to red line, then it limits overrevving also. 15Hp possible easy peasy.
    cool vid.

    Have you considered adding a power valve to your design? I feel like it would help with low-to-high rpm transition

    So good to catch up with you again. Let me explain. I watched EVERY video for a year when I was living in Mexico, then when I came back to the UK other things occupied my time. But I'm glad to see a 'ped again 'cause last time I watched you, you were casting cylinders and doing stuff that no home mechanic really gets involved in. You had hit the buffers (literally - on the railway tracks!). I thought you had lost vision but now I can see stuff I recognise once more. Like you, I even left my KX500 in Mexico with plain water in the cooling system (nearly 4 years ago!). Why don't you choose one video every 3 months and post them together so I can get an idea of where you had got to, and when, so I can play catch up. Then I can start all over again. Let me tell you, it's a pleasure to see a straightforward carburettor, a real gearbox, an empty whisky glass, and a few grey hairs in your beard!

    losing power as the engine heats up - smells a little bit like compression issues. how is the piston and ring doing? also, speaking of smelling things, maybe the brakes or chain start dragging when they get hotter? don't think it's wheelspin though, a warmer tyre should actually have more grip than a cold one

    Suggesting pinning on thinner tires, for less rolling resistance. Oh, and removing brakes too.
