    Modern mechanics are so poetic to me. The epitome of our ability to tinker as a species. From the Stirling, to the hermetic compressor and internal combustion engine all the way up to rocket turbines and nuclear reactors. Thinking about this stuff makes me teary eyed. It's marvelous to watch it all work as designed and make life easier for all of us. It's non fiction wizardry.

      If my memory is correct,the 1981 Ford Escort was the first Ford with an onboard computer. I would be very surprised indeed if even one of those nightmares was still functional. In actual fact,this 1893 was better engineered. They put B 24 bombers together, no problem. Millions of Jeeps. Lots of other stuff. NASCAR winners.
      But no,in the new age,they could not even pour piss out of a boot.
      Nice to see they returned to below the original engineering standard.

    • @brucerogermorgan2388
      @brucerogermorgan2388 6 років тому +2

      Yes, it was common in the early days to use what was called an "automatic" inlet valve with a very light spring. When the piston descended on the intake stroke the pressure in the cylinder was lower than atmospheric pressure and that pushed the inlet valve open. It worked but was very inefficient and the engine would run only at low speeds. As technology evolved they found it was necessary to operate the inlet valve from the camshaft in the same way the same as the exhaust valve to get higher engine speed.
