      It was much easier when carburetors were around.
      1 : 2 camshaft and crankshaft ratio was done with 2 gears that meshed together or it might have a short chain rotating them in sequence.
      I grew up stacking all kinds of small & big block engines.
      Don't even remember how many I've built.
      ( Gas was 0.75 a gallon back then )
      I remember when toilet bowl injection came out and hated it then. Today it's even worse with multi port fuel injection.
      More parts = more opportunities to break down.
      Offshore we use inboard 2 stroke diesels , 12 cylinders, 71 cubic inches each. ( Detroit Diesel 12/71's & 16/92's ) They don't even have camshafts or timing chain/belts.
      Many are both supercharged and turbo combined.

I rolled my eyes 🙄 and thought, oh goodie, I can pretend to know while he shows me now…except when he showed me this video, for the first time in 20+years of driving and having a vehicle, I was able to understand, see, and connect what these things were and how they worked together and gave me an idea of how complex a working engine can be, yet how simple it is when you go step by step and see how each part has its place in the whole process. Love this. Thank you!

    It’s hard to believe that engineers came up with this complex design around 1900. So many moving parts to keep in time. It was a basic engine back then but still had a crank and cam and timing components and valves that had to be in time to run. Amazing!

So in short, the more problems one has with their vehicle, the more they know about it, the more they know than anyone else who has a newer vehicle, because some newer ones are less likely to have a problem, and they'll know what's wrong, obviously, doesn't mean to say they can fix it themselves though, that's obviously when a trained engineer comes into it.

Then you have the noise pollution thermal engines create and finally most importantly of all, its signifciant contribution towards global warming. The truth is there were alternatives to transport, but thanks to powerful automotive lobbies (and more importantly oil companies that wanted a market) cleaner alternatives lost out

      A couple hundred hours in Blender (my 3D software) alone. The research and script writing is a good 40-60 hours before modeling even begins. It's not the complexity of the model only, but also making sure it's accurate and works how it should. You can fudge things with 2D drawings, but in 3D it has to be the right shape or things won't make contact when they should, etc. It's a real functioning machine, basically.

    As a guy that just got his license this year I wanted to know what all the parts of my car did, this helps so much with my understanding of the engine and components of my car indeed!

    please don't ever stop making these. i'm literally learning how to fix my own car after being tired of being ripped off by shady mechanics for so long, and this is one of the most helpful videos i've come across in understanding how everything comes together. thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

      Saw your intro vid about avoiding the wasteful stuff many youtube vids make us sit through and I can dig it! And yeah, when folks add their knowledge to my work that helps us all so I'm into it as well. Best of luck, all ships rise together, and so forth and so on ;D

    I've long had a basic, basic understanding of this process, but the 'explodey' part always mystified me. That's always been the case until today, I learned about the function of the fuel injector and the spark plug. Thank you!
