    Still being a 4-stroke, it seems to me it makes perfect sense it has no torque--the engine has to rely strictly on momentum for 1.5 out of 2 rotations of the crankshaft. With the presumably-undersized carb, it may as well be a 4cyl running on just one cylinder. I'm amazed it ran at all, at least without revving the piss out of it lol.

    • @Z-Ack

      Lawnmowers that do this is from crankcase pressures, is why most used oil out of em smells like gas. Excess will blow by the rings and create pressure in the case which will vent off back into the carb. I think excess gas in the carb is because of efficiency or lack thereof. Fuel injection would blow by and feed out exhaust if pressure got high without any pcv system.. but i dont fully understand how egr systems work as with pcv systems so i could be completely wrong.. good learning point tho..

  • @jakelund4381
    @jakelund4381 3 роки тому +804

    You will need a massive fly wheel to keep the engine momentum on the intake and exhaust cycles. Also each cylinder needs to have its own carburetor to compensate for every cylding asking for fuel and air on the same stoke. There is no torque due to a majority of power being used to turn the engine to the next firing cycle. With a heavy fly wheel turning the engine through the no power stoke and carbs on each cylinder you may have something.

It is a 4 stroke still but it does not fire twice within one full cycle.

    My guess for the lack of torque in general... on an inline 4, you have the 4 firing events clocked 180 degrees for 2 rotations of the crank. On that, you've got 1 firing event per 2 rotations. So you *may* have the same torque but it's coming out in 1 huge pulse while the rest of that 720 degree cycle will have none.

    You need a heavier fly wheel to carrier the momentum through to the intake stroke. compression stroke the ignition stroke then the exhaust stroke see in single cylinder engine you need a heavier fly wheel to convert the rotating momentum to torque , the fly wheel then ads in helping through the three non power strokes . it is easier to slow down a plastic wheal than a metal wheel of same size because the plastic wheel has less mass. In short make the fly wheel heavier old big bore engine all have massive fly wheels!!!!!! You have a big bore in theory when they fire all at the same time.hop this helps

    Fellas, you'd have had more success if you gone for a two-by-two cylinder conversion. One problem you have overlooked in this version, is that the carb is calculated to feed one cylinder at a time, not four at once. One carb per cylinder might be more successful, but it'll never run smooth. I'd take the two-by-two option any day.

    • @shanewilson3653
      @shanewilson3653 3 роки тому +2

      Kind of.... 2x2 would be alot better... but....The carburetor is calculating fuel per air volume. It may be underrated for the peak air flow at revs but it will still be aiming for the same air fuel ratio regardless of number of cylinders. There may also be some preference in manifold flow that starves the end cylinders of air fuel volume comparative to the center cylinders.
      The main issue that your 2x2 idea would solve is the lack of inertia the 1x4 system has. The lack of inertia means the spark timing had to be retarded and as such a lack of good flame front would have hindered max rpm. With a 2x2 system the flame front can be a bit more advanced as the inertia will carry it past tdc allow a more successful power stroke due to a more health flame front. Generally it takes about 6ms for a flame kernel to propagate to useful power stroke so spark fires 15-40' before tdc. When this is done counter rotation forces are applied to the crankshaft at about 20% of the power strokes force. The other cylinders and stored inertia in the fly wheel over come this and compress it to be store as potential energy in the compressed gas until the cylinder passes TDC where it assists in the power stroke. But with all the cylinders firing at the same time the counter rotation force is too high and wants to stall the engine, or slows it enough that usable power stroke has already been mostly expended. A very aggressive centrifugal advance may assist this as the low speed low inertia timing could be very retarded but at higher speed the timing could advanced more than usual to counter the initial retarded timing to aim for gradiant to 30btdc at 3500rpm.

      @@shanewilson3653 whilst that may be true, the fact remains that for this to run, the carb and intake (before the 4 branches) needs to be around 4x larger. The fuel ratio may not be out of tune, but the maximum flow is nowhere near what it needs to be. Wide open throttle is barely giving each cylinder 25%, even without flow starvation. The vacuum advance on the distributor is no doubt incorrect too! Exhaust has a similar issue, back pressure must be immense!

    You need a larger carburetor. Normally one cylinder is being fed at one time. You are getting 4 cylinders at one time

    Need to separate the intake and exhaust so they aren't fighting each other. You've got four cylinders pumping exhaust into an area designed to take two cylinders worth at a time.

    • @johnkendall6962

      Actually only one at a time the other piston is coming up on compression when one is coming up on exhaust then the crank rotates 180 degrees and repeats. The two inner pistons come together then the two outer ones. They alternate with one is firing.

    @richrdlewis6278 3 роки тому +20

    Bolt the 5 flywheels to it. I'm still trying to work out the o's to bolt on a massive balance weight on though, your going to need like a whole flywheel weight in just 45 o's, you will no doubt need as much weight on the front pully to. I'm going to guess of the top of my head put all the weight at about 170 0's

      Not really, boxer engines still only fire one at time.
      Back in the day MotoGP races used a big bang style engine, basically a v4 motorcycle engine that fires two cylinders at the same time.
