Brother, you have kept me company and sane in the world. I am disabled and have limited income and 3 kids. Someday I hope to be able to help, for now all I have is my sincerest thanks for your company. God bless you and yours.
I'm a single guy with no kids and i feel the same, I'll donate 5$ in your name.
amen: we're with you, let us know what you need
did you have kids prior to the disability?
never give up!
Your patience is unparalleled!
well, it sounds maybe cliche...
but if you really do what you love to do, patience's is not really a problem.
So is our patience unparalleled...
Well, we are all watching youtube videos, instead of working with our hobbies.@@ametti000
@@ametti000 Oh, are the free videos you're under no obligation to watch not pleasing you?
This is exactly what I thought all the weeks ago 😄
That's unbelievable! Thumbs up Alex 👌👍
So he stripped a thread-big deal! He's on his way to bigger and better things, especially with his forthcoming water dynamometer to measure actual engine performance. I'm with you Alex!
God when there be a video with some engine bhp! Done what was point in this!!
you have the best 2 stroke channel on youtube. you show that we can make mistakes. without skipping to now the engine works perfect... you are real deal dude
Nah, he's just desperate for content.
I call it honesty and integrity.
I appreciate the reality of his work.
As soon as the music started when you were tightening the cooling flange, I knew you were going to thread it 😢 Oh well....See you next time. Keep the faith :D
Spoiler alert !!
Two thumbs up at 6:06 followed by "Faithfullness" on cello. I laughed until my eyes watered.
It this was only for the content, this moment was pure gold
If nothing else (and there's lots else), this is a study in tenacity and patience. We could all learn a lot - I know I do.
Thanks for the shout out can't wait until we get it done and see how it works for you
HE HAS RETURNED THE 2 STROKE WIZARD HAS RETURNED
🙏🙌
Without his videos I doubt I’d have ever gotten my vino to where it’s at. This man truly is a wizard
Wizard indeed. Its magical how long it takes to get this engine running. Not even talking about makeing power:D
If you can maybe convert all bolts to studs to hopefully help with not pulling threads out of the aluminum. I only mention this because this is a prototype engine that is being taken apart a lot and what I know about aluminum is it doesn't like threads being used to much. I know you know this but sometimes we need a reminder, I know I do.
It still amazes me how much effort you put in all this. Endless energy it seems, not to speak of all the genious and creative ideas. TOP!
I love your videos so much, that the notifications is enough to make me stop watching the video I was watching before, to watch yours instantly 😅
Don’t stop the good work !!
(12:25) He really just grabbed out red hot metal and went "oh it's still hot" and put it back in like nothing.
it's just Alex, he's built different 😆
Actually those copper washers were cold! You can clearly see that when water hits the board it hisses. So the board was hot not washers.
I like the way you think.
@@connorowens-zi4pu Thanks! But there is nothing to think, You can see it in video. I have softened copper washers like that many times and they cool down very quickly. Those washers were cold as that water. The piece that washers were heated on, was still hot and vaporized water when Alex put wet washers on it. Slow the footage down and watch it couple of times if You can't see it first time.
Just wanted you to know, I've been watching your UA-cam since landspeed record 50cc attempt days. I have no real interest in bikes or 50cc 2 stroke engines, but your honest approach, brainstorming, solution and ideas to application absolutely fascinates me and I can't get enough. Never give up!
Edit* poor spelling
You have set the example, of how to deal with problems and not give up, I have learned a lot from you. Congrats on 200K...
Loctite 515 gasket eliminator is my go to sealant for 2 stroke cases and any other flanged mating surface, not affected by gasoline oil or acid. Good for .010" irregularities on mating surfaces by itself and .030" when used with a primer and it's anaerobic. Never had a failure myself, it is the recommended product by Mercury Marine and SkiDoo.
Loved the ironic humour, 'the crankcase is full of water, two thumbs up' !! Love your work and machining skills, everyone needs a goal 👍🏻😎
Thread strips, “oh well see you next time” ……….The very definition of Unflappable, great to see you in such a good place mentally, go Alex 🎉
The tragic music was cracking me up 🤣😂... I always enjoy your content. Thanks for the video!
You were mentioned in a video on the SXSBLOG channel....they made a 3D printed, carbon fiber, 2 stroke position, and made it run for a 1:30 seconds....he watches you're channel religiously and really hoped you saw it and wondered what you thought about it.....if possible, you should reach out...they would truly love it
Not able to help financially, but I'm here for the great content, to hit the like, and leave a comment to feed the algorithm machine!
Keep up the amazing work!
All hail the algorithm 🙏
For sealing engines, I've had good luck with Reinzosil, it's been holding up on my DT125R, even on the headgasket with a 2 piece head (stock head is notorious for blowing gaskets due to 1 stud being further away, modular heads are even worse)
I appreciate Your calmness in case like this.
I hope the engine will do well in next episode.
Greetings from Poland
he's calm on camera... probably screaming his head off off camera
Right there with you brother.
So many times I've been moments away from a milestone and pop!
Something goes wrong that I don't have a part or the resources to fix.😒
In the end. It ALWAYS comes together and victory is my reward.
Cheers from the PNW Seattle WA USA area.
Home of the only Honda MC21 RG500 powered NSR.✌️
I would’ve slung that ratchet so hard it would have flown through the shop wall. I don’t know how you can maintain self control in such difficult circumstances, but I admire you for being so patient and determined. Cheers mate, I hope you’re feeling better these days. I have been struggling as well. It’s been comforting to travel this difficult road with you.
All the best my High-RPM Friend!
-Castor
Will try to donate sometime. Trying to fix my aprilia for now😊. Keep up the good work you are the best ❤
Always great to watch some more 2STROKESUFFERING
Hi Alex I know you probably won’t see this but when you build the water brake, it’s imperative you use a 31 tooth (or at least high tooth count) for the brake RPM. I’ve built two now for outboard motors here. It’s important for the load control to have fast response on the RPM pickup, as the water load is non linear and hard to tune!! Jostien helped get ours dialed in. Outboards run 2.8:1 gear ratio and have very high torque, low rpm which the brake has a hard time loading up (they like higher RPM on the brake shaft) or the toroidal water flow is not efficient
This is the trouble with torque wrenches.... I could see you weren't happy to give it that last little bit! I have stripped more threads relying on a torque wrench than by feel in my 50 years as a mechanic! 😉 You have amazing patience and skill.
Hey mate
Just found your channel this week and have been binge watching to catch up. Just wanted to say that I own an engineering and fabrication shop in New Zealand. We have 5 axis machines and everything in between. My machine shop is going through a bit of a quiet period and I would be happy to help out (for free) with anything. I know I am far away, but I thought I would mention it. I don’t know how to get in direct contact with you. Hope you see this.
The Yourdyno valve is just a few parts off Amazon and a custom bracket. I bought all the parts for under $180 to build my own for a diesel engine dyno I'm building. It's not worth the $1500 they want for it.
Get some engine sealant made by Victor Reinz, from my experience this is the best one, compared to the likes of loctite and 3m. It will literally seal anything.
Alex, I've used a German product called Curil for metal-to-metal sealants on 911 engines I've built. That works great! A good consistency, it's pretty easy to apply.
Dear Alex, thanx for that wonderful song: *GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS* That indeed is true.
Better use Curil liquid gasket, there are several types and its the best liquid gasket i use for 2 stroke engines and gasoline proof
The good news on your water injection is you caught it before you turned it over. It could have only been halfway full when you tried and I'm sure you would have done some damage when it hydro locked .
This is a form of Self-flagellation.
Dictionary
Definitions from Oxford
noun
the action of flogging oneself, especially as a form of religious discipline.
In this case the discipline is 2 stroke excellence. This channel is an inspiration in engineering and patience. Keep doing what you do.
One step forward, two steps backwards one could say, hang in there Alex, that's what a next episode is for 👍😁
There's nothing I could say that hasn't already been said above, but wanted to comment to support all the same. Keep at it Alex!
Everyone can see thats not sawdust. Probably cocaine..
I like to see your perseverance. Easy is worth nothing. ;-)
I thought you were going for water/alcohol injection when you started pouring from the bourbon bottle! 😂
FYI, WE STILL GOT YOUR BACK!!
Well done! We all support you 100%. You're a legend man! As long as you keep going, it has to come good!
Jan from Langtuning stinks of roast pork
Love how you show the good, bad and ugly....honesty makes this channel I never miss !
Please try victor reinz silicone
I believe it's called reinzsol
ser ut til å ha litt uflaks, helt normalt i mitt liv også🙃
Not much to really say about this video too many issues and catastrophes as usual not enough success
Mainly pre-programmed problems, the water leak will probably be between the bushing and the cylinder, have you also seen the corner of the B transfer ports?
I feel your pain....😢
I feel you on the hardware failure. Was warming up a racing chainsaw and a 12.9 grade bolt on the rod cap pulled clean apart...thankfully the engine can be saved, but what a mess it made.
I have had that Wurth sealant fail multiple times. In my opinion it is not suitable for metal on metal. Or anywhere with any significant clearance. It is good for putting on paper gaskets and that is about it. Use something like three bond TV, or the loctite equivalent. I have used it on engine and gearbox casings for years. You will never have an issue again.
Get some yamahabond or Honda bond. Both are amazing, that why both manufacturers use them on all their new bikes since the 90's
HONDA BOND FOR THE WIN. For real
… yama bond…
Is that really yamabond ?
You had that the whole time?
Ok. Let’s se about that yama bond.!
Yamabond? You mean Honda bond?
Dang it Beavis.
Yamabond is the sh@t!!!.. been using since the 70's..I'm surprised you don't have "inserts" on the entire engine..what with maintenance/RPM ..Awesome content as always!!👍👍👍🗽🇺🇸
Back in the 1955-6 Bonneville speed week sessions,NSU pushed a 50cc streamlined bike to 127 mph! I’m not certain, but I believe it was a two stroke,assisted by water injection! Unfortunately ,it’s doubtful any of the engineers involved at the time are still surviving, but details of the technology they used must exist somewhere? I think the engine was the 50cc from the NSU”Quickly” moped originally,but obviously seriously uprated,and run through a multiple ratio gearbox.
3- bond silver Bro ! can't go wrong with very sparing use ! a bit expensive but you don't have problems
Seems like your workshop is Uncle Murphy's Norwegian base! My address is his Australian base.
❤nice progress, shit happens, but this can be fixed❤ keep going, stay strong! Like your project!
Thanks❤❤❤
Hello, I have a question about removing aluminum oxides from surfaces. If I use sodium hydroxide and leave aluminum in it for 5 minutes, will the aluminum turn black? Will hydrofluoric acid remove this black surface and leave pure aluminum? I used PA6/AW2017A aluminum for this purpose and after bathing in caustic soda and rinsing with distilled water, it turned black, why is this happening? Please someone give me an answer.
Hi Alex, Steve from SxSBlog / 110Garage tried to run a 400cc 2Stroke quad with a 3D-printed piston on the 110Garage channel. He said he watches you all the time and would be interested to know what you think about his shenanigans. You may not learn something new, but it might be some light entertainment for you.
Loctite 5910 Quick gasket... will make your life so much better! 😉 cant wait for the next dyno session! Cheers!
I've used Permatex Aviation Form-A-Gasket No. 3 in similar applications.
Never failed on me
I hope this waterbrake dyno is accurate enough. At least to aim for is 20 Hp N/A two stroke 50 cc. I think it has been done already.
I would lay off a surpercharger idea. It eats to much of power to drive it from 50 cc. Keep it N/A maybe with exotic fuels route.
And get some best forged materials for cranck , rod and piston up to performance to 18.000 rpm.
I have started watching a channel (AutoBeta2T) and he is using different formulas on exhaust flow that’s helping him MAP out his exhaust/flow before expansion chamber using a machine and vacuum cleaner for suction. Pretty neat how he is using model clay to build up an area to create a blowdown effect in & out. This show’s him room for improvement. A cleverly creative design to make real horsepower gains. Just can’t get enough of the 2-stroke stuff!
The help of others is how we make this world a better place. Whoever helps you, helps me, who helps others… the BlackMagic Racing and YourDyno folks deserve massive thanks. If it weren’t for Alex I would have never heard of either of them. YourDyno is right up my alley, I Live and breathe software all day every day.
We actually share our dreamcar, except I do not have a successful youtube channel, so I am still dreaming away🤣. Thanks for another awesome video!!!
Sxs garage channel made a 3d printed carbon fiber reinforced piston for a Polaris scrambler 400 for fun. They mentioned they hoped 2 stroke stuffing would see the video and comment.
So, let's play devil's advocate. I've been following you for 7 years. What have you actually achieved so far?
It looks like water cooling 2 stroke engines is just as difficult and leak-prone as water cooling computers. Only that your crank case fills with water, rather than your CPU socket.
I work in garage/ engineering trade in UK and have used some of the “wurth” products in the past and in the workshop we dubbed them “worthless” 🤣🤣🤣👌🏼
Idk if you have available to you permatex products? The black rtv by permatex (says "right stuff") is hands down the most reliable sealer i have used especially when oil involved
Minor hiccups, resolve and move on! Replacing bolts with studs sounds like a good call though. 👍 Keep on truckin!
Been there with the jacked up threads.. got a $1200 race prepped stroker kit clearanced small block Chevy block and it came with a poorly done heli-coil in the one of the water pump bolt holes that failed on me last time it was apart. Oh, also broke a brand new head stud off in a big block Chevy we were assembling once on the second torque sequence. That one made me sick to my stomach until we got the head pulled back off... 😅 It happens man, damn near makes you wanna pull your hair out but it'll be alright!
I also noticed würth dont work for my 2strokes. Don’t know why, maybe temperature, maybe the oil. Since I use the petec, it’s fine. You have to see the bright side: you missed out on the water lock and bent piston and crank 👍
lol double like is like and unlike after...😂 nice video as always... and nice lesson to check cooling system after engine rebuild you can pressurise it to like 1-2 bars an leave it for couple of hours if it sealed properly then pressure should be same as was before (similar as cylinder leakdown, or some other sealed systems)... don't upset when mistakes happens, who not work- not make mistakes... as always I impatiently wait for other video...☕
The mechanic who taught me everything about engines and motorcycles almost 30 years ago also taught me this saying: dirko rot, des motors tot! Means, if you see red sealant on the engine, it's as good as dead. Dirko is/was a comon Brand in germany, all motorcycle parts stires Sold this Red sealant. It Never worked for me.
look at the product:Hylomar blue ...Saws guys using this as gasket verry thin and good sealant
I once ziptied a piston back together
Here's another guy building a water brake: ua-cam.com/video/Fx8hwiRmbas/v-deo.html
Have you tried simple cotton thread. Lycoming aircraft engines use thread as the gasket when the halves are rejoined And most don't leak.
I've been using yamaband and hylomar. Hylomar is some pretty amazing stuff
hi 2 stroke stuffing, I've seen a lot of your videos and I've taken a lot of inspiration from them, listen, I wanted to ask you if it was a stupid idea, maybe you can try this: I had thought about exhaust gas leaks on the cylinder exhaust port on a 2-stroke engine when piston goes down, because transfers are open and fuel go through the exhaust port, so exhaust chamber do its work to push back fuel, then I thought of this: what happens if I make a rotary disc valve on the exhaust port only? I'll explain better: transfers are located a lot under the exhaust port, the exhaust port is almost at the top of the cylinder but always on the cylinder wall, the rotary valve opens the exhaust port after combustion when piston goes down, while the piston continues to descend, the rotary valve closes right before the piston begins to open the transfer ports positioned below. When the transfer ports are fully open, the piston begins to rise, and reaches the highest point, and after combustion, it begins to descend and then the rotary valve opens the exhaust port
This will improve performance for good reliability engine, with longer conrod, the rotary disc is calculated based on crankshaft stroke, conrod lenght, compression height piston etc…
What do you think? The exhaust will do only one work: throw away exhaust gases more quickly, for preparing the new combustion cycle
you have had 20+? hp
20k rpm
the motors showed no signs of making less as the rpms climbed... adjusting thing only made it more powerful down low but it still kept gaining power.
i think you may already have the most powerful 2 stroke. it just needs to stay running and be left in a stable condition.
you have multiple motors?
both candidates for the position with different methods. more than one engine would be an advantage, and make for content with a running engine, when another is down for repairs or further modifications.
cant wait to hear a sustained 12k rpm again. man thise things were singing
I like to keep my maple syrup in a castrol canister , unfortunately I didn’t check, and I’ve lubed the engine with maple syrup instead of oil, and now the crank is seized solid
Well hard to say this but........what are you doing bro? Been wwtching you for a couple years now and i have not seen anything close to a running engine. I thought this was for a land speed bike. Its two stroke technology for christs sake. You videos are high quality and the content is better than average for most creators. Two thumgs up for that. But is that all this chsnnel is. Making videos to make money for content wifh no real world working engine in sight?
No thank you.👏👏
Your videos are brilliant the learning process is half the fun and never ever feel like you need to put us viewers before your own mental health.
We can be patient and let a man heal and get his head straight.
The last thing we want is another great engineer gone too soon.
I'm still waiting for some power and maybe a return to Bonneville for a real crack at the 50cc land speed record.
I'm sure there will be a few more offerings to the gods of speed but we will learn from it and come back stronger.
thank you again your videos are something I look forward to in a bit of a cloudy life I'm in at the moment.
I wish I could donate to help you on your journey but it's a little tight dinner every 3 days the cost of living in my area is not good but we make do.
much love ..👏👏
Permatex moto seal might work well? I have used with success on outboard 2 stroke boat engines for the exhaust manifold.
I'm sure you wanted to say many big words *%$#!!# as a result of that thread , love your channel!!
Biggest thing y’all seem to need with regard to y’all’s shop and a water brake, other equipment,is reliable around the clock heat…
Test that your sealant is resistant to your fuel. I rebuild chainsaws professionally and have had many types of RTV silicone fail. I finally got tired of it and did a test with different sealants. I just stuck a couple of large washers together with each sealant, let them cure fully, and then I put them in a jar of fuel and let them sit soak for a while. Many "engine sealants" failed they where not resistant to fuel they softened, expanded and lost their bond or completely dissolved. The one I ended up going with was permatex Moto seal which was completely unaffected by sitting in fuel for months. Not sure if that moto seal product is available where you are but its been good for me.
Studs not bolts much stronger hold in a soft material especially aluminum.
You should be doing thermal stress relieving by placing the entire engine into an oven heating it to 275 f then placing in cold air and repeating the process five times then test for leaks and make sure everything turns smooth re-torque.
The heating process does two things it removes all moisture from porosities and material and when cooling all the oil will be sucked into the porosities that is good in the inside of the engine including the cylinder wall.
The thermal expansion and softening of seals will help everythings stress is line up better and move closer into a position it will be in at running temperature and stress.
It's a bit like a torque plate being added before boring.
Cast iron blocker stress relieved seasoned by heating them to 1800° f for 24 hours and then allowing to cool.
The small mass of your motor shouldn't be as critical has a large cast iron motor.
But the materials you're using have close to twice the thermal expansion properties.
love what you do .i started club racing in the early 70s with a 125 bsa bantem mostly zundapp internals and lining the crankcases with cork tiles to up the crank case pressure how things have moved on
Funny truth! Anytime i have ever salvaged a gasket from pretty much anywhere on anything ever on a motorcycle of mine! I walk over to my trusty metal chemichail catch all of a cabinet and grab any old can of spray paint any color but ya spray paint of anykind in general hang the gasket be it head gasket or a random cover gasket i've yet to have a salvaged gasket that i've sprayed with spray paint and allowed to dry and then reused fail on me ever. If your process is not broken why would you fix it?
Tomorrow new Video with New issues to be solved, i cant wait anymore............
Been casually watching this channel from time to time for a few years now and I’ve never actually seen you achieve…anything 😅 other than some very nice engineering and some ambitious experiments
methanol is much better for drying, used to chemically dry when no water can be present. As it evaporates, it takes the water with it.
Man, its like god hates your efforts. But you know what they say; when god gives you lemons, you find a new god.
your calibration method isn't totally accurate since the weight isn't sitting at a perfect 9oclock position, it is more like 6-6:30 oclock which changes where the weight hangs vertically in regards to the point of ritation of the dyno, dunno if this is understandable just let me know if it isn't 😅
