"All hail the algorithm" and "Temporary solutions are the most permanent" on a shirt with nice SuperFast Matt graphics would be something I would buy to support and wear for inspiration!
Same here... would really like some merch like that.
I would buy it!
This could be a temporary merch solution
Yep, same.
Soon
I'm people, and I'm impressed. But still, all hail the algorithm.
How do you get to be a plural person? Is your real name Zaphod Beeblebrox?
@@SubTroppo Are we at The Restaurant at the End of the Universe????
@@justchillinout2002 More like the Confederacy of Dunces end of the universe.
hail the algorithm.
The best day of the week is when Matt uploads
"Temporary solutions are the most permanent".
Truer words have never been spoken!
For reals. Once pulled an access panel off a plane built in 71, on the back it said, "Temp. RR nxt PMI Mar86" (Temporary. Remove and replace next planned maintenance interval of March 1986). We looked it over, everything was fine, we did what the last 24 PMI crews had done; checks good reinstall.
I'm a pool guy, so I'm familiar with hydraulics. Running pumps in parallel the way you have it MAY cause issues with the flow rates, and potentially even the flow direction, IF the pumps are run at different speeds. If I understand your intentions with the system, they will be, correct? I THINK the effluent side configuration will be OK, but I could see issues with influent side if the pump speeds are running at very different speeds. The pump running at the higher speed could cause the flow through the lower speed pump to stall, or even reverse (not likely unless the pump is shut down completely). In the pool industry, we would employ one-way or pressure differential valves to prevent issues like that. Running the influent and effluent plumbing into common plenums will often resolve the issue as well. Running the influent side of the tow pumps to the lower radiator end cap with separate lines would likely resolve any potential issues. It's also possible it will be completely fine the way it is, lol. Just wanted to share my experience in case you do run into issues later.
This Dude...^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I wonder if this might be different in a pressurised system?
I've got no idea, I'm just speculating, pools generally don't have the reservoir and lines under pressure. Though then again this might not be under the same pressures seen in a vehicle cooling system
@@GingerNingerGames The pool itself is the reservoir. When in operation, all of the lines are either under pressure, or vacuum. They are not identical systems, but have common hydraulic design elements.
I read "I'm a pooR guy" and I kept wondering why being broke made you competent with hydraulics.
Then I read better.
@@Heidegaff 🤣
I really appreciate the thesis and execution of this channel.
Only complaint is that there's one video a week! Format and length are perfect though so dont want to mess that up
Hello Matt. About the leaks. When i used to work at the Saab factory in Sweden we also had problems with leaks in the cooling system. It happend when you put the clamp to close to the end of the hoose. The solution was to put the clamp no closer than 5mm to the end. Now days hooses comes with the clamp glued in the correct position. Did notice that some of your clamp was very close to the end of the hoose.
Thanks for great content. John
This has honestly become my favorite youtube channel. It's a great combination of informative and entertaining. You're killin it Matt, stay golden.
I have been binging Matt for the past few weeks now and I have not been able to stop watching, dry humor mixed with oh yeah here's where I failed is just stupid funny
10:03 didn't know Arduino ran Android code haha. Good stuff man, these videos are awesome
Wondered about that myself. On the other hand, the code to do what Matt is doing is pretty darn trivial.
@@stevejohnson1685 PWN should be in every hardware hackers tool kit but writing from scratch shouldn't be too cumbersome. Even naively its just totalTime = onTime + offTime. So within totalTime the just needs to be a timing mechanism to set a pin as high
What do you mean by "Android code"? This is C.
@@user2C47 Matt calls it "android code" at one point.
From what I've seen, either he misspoke or he's making Data from Star Trek. I'm not sure.
Yeah, hail the algorithm indeed, it's a great project, getting an old car back on the road
"swaping the entire garage? No!" hilarious :D
Greetings from Germany
Can I just express how great it is that your garage looks like an actual, completely normal, garage. Not a polished studio for perfect UA-cam shots.
I’m glad you like it because I’m definitely not going to clean it up any more than this.
How does this guy not have more subscribers? This is one of the best channels on youtube!
Great job Matt! You lost me at "I had to write some code", but your ability to work through complex issues while explaining your processes to those with lesser skills is what makes this channel great! Also your video production is first class.
also, writing android code and running it on an arduino nano clone is a feat of it's own(around the 10m mark)
For a cooling fan... I think you could nab one from a VW made in the last 10 years or so. Most take a PWM input to control speed, then you don't need an external fan controller. Usually they have 2 fans, and the controller is built into the larger fan.
Please never change your narration style :)
Speaking English?
@@calholli yes English. Style refers to how it's presented
Every episode I think I have everything all planned out for my ev conversion
And then matt comes in with 5 things I hadn't even considered to pay attention to
love this channel - it's the best
Agreed, surprised there's only 89k subs.
@@ka24det we need to share it more!
I love the dry humor. I'll keep coming back.
How come you don't have a million subs?
Love your sense of humor!!
You are so awesome. You have captured the way the inside of my brain works. Most days its like a squirrel on massive dose of caffeine!
Matt I extremely apreciate you uploading so regularly. You're quite the inspiration for future projects!
Great video for a great project. Can't wait for the next step.
Totally love this channel. Just keeps on getting better and better! Love the humour, love the build. Nice work, mate!
Thank you sooooo much for working on the garage. That was my favorite part. All hail the "Al Gore" rhythm.
THE JAG IS COMING A LONG BEAUTIFULLY MY DUDE! IM GLUED TO THE SCREEN EVERY EPISODE!
Great video Matt. I'm really enjoying this build.
You can't nerd-out harder than this.... :) Nice work.
Really enjoy your vids. Especially your sense of humor and most importantly I always learn something from your vids. Thanks
You smashed it again; you're the best
Just found this channel. Loving it!!
I'm so excited to see this thing driving!
Commenting for the algorithm. And because this project is so incredible. Keep it up!
Just discovered this channel. I binged the Jag series over the last 2 days. I love your pragmatic approach and look forward to seeing the car on the road...running under its own power. 😁
Awesome job, this is my favorite channel. I'm and electrical engineer but when I went to school we were still studying electron tubes, really impressed with your knowledge. 👍👍👍
Fantastic work
Nice update. Did a gang of work in a relatively short time
All hail the algorithm indeed. Been watching for a while and this has become a fav channel of mine
Its awesome that you gave out the code
Amazing work as always.
Your hose/tube/bends solution is what all of us do on these projects :) Somehow I feel my 30 years of projects are validated by your videos lol. (PS, I like the Oetiker clamps too)
As always, the humor is just great!, it wouldn't be same without it.
this channel is going to grow big time. Very nice video again.
Great to hear you are wise & humble enough to listen to reason. There are many with details we are not aware, though you may need to sift through & verify details. Thanls... Keep up the informative material. ✔❤👍
Thanks!
I think I speak on the Algorithm’s behalf when I say we are all anxious to see you driving this! Great presentation, as always, and I appreciate the insights into the whys of your decisions.
*SFM* On a serious progress Jag... with your electromod! Props
Matt the term you are looking for is Yak Shaving. Editing the garage, for example. Thanks for bringing us along.
Hell yeah super cool Matt
Hey Matt, I love these videos. I recently saw the guys at Hoonigan do something smart to get a good bead on an aluminium coolant line. They literally welded a small bead on the edge. They said that they had been doing it for years and they build cars with insane power and cooling systems. You already have the tools to make the beads so probably not a tip as useful for you. But still worth mentioning.
All hail the mighty algorithm! Also, neat idea with the arduino. I probably would have gone crazy using a 555 timer or something like that for the pwm signal.
Superb, as always
Found your channel yesterday, watched a couple random videos, neat stuff. Here I am the next day at the end of a 20-video-long build playlist, whoops...
Anyway, neat stuff, keep it up! Gives me something to aspire to as a freshly minted mechE with only a year or two of grime on me.
Like the monocle Matt 🧐😆 Another great episode - thanks…
nice work dude.
British Matt is back! ❤️
This was chill.
Looking good so far.
Another great entertaining video. I so want to see the Jag on the road.
Very good.
Carry on 👍
Brilliant video, thanks for sharing. I'll be doing something similar soon (That probably means next year) so your info and Arduino code will help a lot.
In case you didn't know, you are competing with project Binky for coolest UA-cam build.
I think they may finish their car before, but they had a 6 year head start.
Both channels are fantastic!
There's no way BOM finishes Binky before Matt is done with the Jag. I agree, both are great channels.
@@tkreitler I think you may be right. The BOM boys are a bit nuts.
Awesome build... Next system need to be 5 part series with only one about the car and the other four about random knowledge and garage organization/rewiring. 😀
I am definitely gonna make it a point to put 240 volt outlets on both sides of my shop when i start renovation. Thank you for bringing it up!
@Mike you aint wrong, but I'd rather just have another outlet since the walls are already down to studs, not alot of extra work.
@Mike
I'd agree with overhead extension reels or ceiling-mounted drop extensions...but a workshop handling steel that can drop and slice extension cords????
All hail the algorithm.
Nice update.
Thanks for an interesting vid
Nice work 😀
All hail the algorithm.
.... and what all the other appreciators of your channel said, I second.
FYI you can get temperature sensors that work at any temperature. It might not be for an "automotive application" but if your temperature is below 212 degrees you won't be dealing with any great pressures you will just be moving the flow. You can basically just tig a bung on a tube and add it in line.
I feel so much cooler now that I see a cooling system!
Restricted pub opening hours in the UK when I started boozing in the mid-1970's were a temporary measure that had started SIXTY YEARS BEFORE at the start of the 1914-1918 war. I recall standing in a pub in Aberdeen Scotland at 10 pm with a drink in hand and being confronted by a member of the bar staff who shouted "get out" in my face. In England you had another half an hour to "drink-up" (luxury). Here in Australia there are still memories of "the six-o-clock swill".
Ditto New Zealand....
though we have moved on from the sawdust on the bar floor...
at the end of the night (6pm) the sodden sawdust was shoveled out the bar door...floor clean!
This satisfied the car nerd in me. Love Teslas and fat fender cars.
Thank you British Matt!
"Functional cooling system on the (SuperfastMatt's) Jag".
That's what I've been waiting for!
Very interesting ... thanks
Great video!!!
Nice design for the steering wheel
Awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Very Impressive !
Fascinating.
All hail the algorithm
Nice cooling system 👍👍
Glory to the algorithm, may it bless you with monetization. Gloriam Omnissiah.
You moving the Jag makes me remember my uncles proverb "annoyance is a better motivator then pain, or people wouldn't endure pain to fix a annoyance"
This episode I spot on for my project Matt. Thank you. I'm using an electric pump on my ducati supermono replica and want to control the speed of flow. Can I do this with simple bosch pumps as found on mercs for auxiliary heating systems or do they have to be a clever motor? I'm a spanner and lathe man so not so clever on the electronic front.
Oh, geeze, just found your content and you sound just like me. I am the exact same way, rearranging the garage, check, that's me too lol
I can't believe how much insanely incredible is just hidden away by the algorithm.
I like it. There’s even science and pooters and stuff.
I love you brother.
i cant wait to do this on my 1930 desoto!
For fan speed many people use the electric volvo fans from volvo 200 700 and 900-series of cars. Cheap fans that can run in two speeds and have an external fan relay. On the fan relay you ground the inputs with an ecu or a two speed temp sensor. The double relay is built to make it that makes it impossible to run both high and low speed at the same time. Popular in many car builds where you want to change from belt driven fan to a high performance fan for a very low price.
I love those Arduino nano every boards. Mostly because they play nice at 14ish volts.. I'm using it as a GPS speedometer and engine temperature gauge in my 1968 C20 Chevy..
Nice! I was worried that they are not rated for an automotive environment, but I think I'm just going to have redundant systems. It'll still cost a small fraction of the available automotive systems, and I have basically infinite flexibility.
@@SuperfastMatt a small heat sink for a raspberry pi seems to work fine for mine, I live in northern Utah where it gets pretty toasty..
@@SuperfastMatt could just pot the whole thing in Scotchweld once you get your wiring sorted to cut down on vibe and moisture related failures.
That is perfect logic. If you have to deal with a thing once, you work around it. If you have to deal with it twice, you move the damn bench already :D
"All hail the algorithm" 🤣
I think you should put some kind of air baffle between the grill and the radiator + between the radiator and the fan. The air always goes the easiest way and that is around the rad. Every car has some kind of air baffle there.
Yes, fan shrouds exist for a reason.
@@averyw.3939 yes I was searching for this word😂
Put simple rubber flaps on holes cut into the tight fitting shroud..so that at highway speed the fan shroud doesn't hold back the inrushing air through the grille...and the fan doesn't need to be on at all...but at low speed, the shroud makes the fan suck at all areas of the radiator...increasing the efficiency of both....
nice and cool
LOL Would have been much easier to add another Electrical Socket on the other side. I love your Videos and Humor!
Like a true engineer work on all the things at once
From those of us who aren't currently able to do a project like this- thank you!
Probably been stated 300 times but the uneven flow thru the batteries could be helped by a reverse return system. Feed water into one side of the manifold. Then the first supply port goes to the last return port, etc
Cool!
Just appeasing the algorithm. My 2 cents, I would have put one bigger pump upstream of the split instead of two downstream. You could then put a valve on each line downstream and dial in until you get the flow you want/ get fancy and have a temperature sensor on the outlet that alters the valve position. This will remove the need for two pumps and prevent them from fighting/hunting for coolant. Oh actually put temperature sensors on the outlet (return legs) and have them vary pump speed based on temperature. Can you have too much cooling? If not just ignore everything I have said. I haven’t finished watching the video just throwing words at my screen. Keep up the build, great job.
This right here. If you consider a scenario where one of the two pumps is off, the other may end up back-feeding from the other pump.
