ideal engine

[TheDammerboy]

isnt this like a hit and miss engine?????

[TimothyNg1998]

Like a dead engine

[shuntedbywing]

whats the belt for? waterpump or cooling fan?

[Veeradinesh85]

It make sound so not a ideal machine you'r cheating people

[ptrakk]

@Veeradinesh85 the name of those old motors were called ideal engines.

[mptrax]

It runs on farts. Methane

[mrbobie93]

Hit and miss?

[UunonMopo]

supras needs that motor. they 2jz motors are so bad and slow.

[azafreak]

its so chill~

kickin' now 'n' then.

[K0lsyr4]

is that for cutting grass ?

[southozsurf]

@K0lsyr4 No, its for mowing lawn.

[gsvincze]

40 RPM (Y)

[lenoxofrd]

guao Xd



[46Mongoose]

Because inefficient engines with no Horse Power are in such high demand.

[ElMirc]

how come this has 3/4 horse power? it has one combustion at 3 seconds, it feels like the engine has a lot of weight to push. very weighty flywheel

[fakiir]

@ElMirc its got a governor keeping it at low revs, if you apply a load to the output it will fire more often to maintain the revs.

[nathan61984]

Hit-and-miss engines rock! :D

[tdog158]

I so want one of these things!!

[waynelife6669]

And why it's called ideal ?

[rfvtgbzhn]

@waynelife6669 because tomgeier wants, taht his videos gets many views.

[turbankidz]

yea... about the word ideal.. i dont think it mows lawns.

[ccraig412]

Looks fuel efficient. lol.

[WaagooshTheRedFox]

@ccraig412 contrary to norma belief it is actually VERY efficient, but it has such low power output that the uses are quite limited. see the flywheel needs to be spun up by hand before the engine will acctually start working.

if calibrated correctly the engine cant get approx 35.324% effieciency.. which is about 9 to 10% more efficient than todays multi piston engines.

[4freespeech]

My Grandpap had a general store up in WV and used one of these to

grind coffee in a huge cast iron mill, (in those days all you could get

was burlap bags of BEANS- you had to grind 'em yourself).

[911Truthseekers3]

you should run it with magnets

[boaterbil]

gotta love the old hit and miss engines nice post, thanks

[Morsauc]

i para que mierda sirve esa wea



[Sevyano1]

ve a saber tio, parece ser una cagada de las grandes !! jajajajaj

[shstubas0890]

sooo its a 10 stroke?

[slaquers]

@shstubas0890 sounds like a hit and miss gas engine

[Andyterranbase1]

@slaquers it runs alot slower than regular engines, it just sounds that way

[redcm000]

the motor is like 20 rpm lol

[empirey1]

wow i have just bought a ideal engine from canada but i have not got it shipped over to england yet. the one that i have bought it a 1916 and its a upright one

very nice vid

[loamall]

))))) fart engine)))

[loamall]

@boomboom2005 in your brain bullsheet)))) and yet you ride like a fag)))))

[loamall]

@boomboom2005 You want respect? Watch your words, do not be like a dog ... we all die one day, so what? Are you trying to scare me with this? Hahaha ...!))))) I live where people are dying every day.....

[slaquers]

@boomboom2005 wow calm down.

[tunnis7us]

not that ideal in nowadays. there is robotic lawnmowers which runs with electricity not gasoline. Also they do you're lawn automatically so no need to even get up.

[politykkk125]

working quietly. hmm, cool;)

[l3ucl1]

is it fuel effective

[zachattack969]

@dacheckthisout2010 so youre saying that a hit and miss motor is the same as an electric motor(what is said to be in the car on the site provided) and the lutec magnet motor? you posted the exact same thing on that video... theres only one word to describe your comment and they happen to have a button for it. SPAM

[DMahalko]

With no load like this it is just idling and the firing rate is slow, but if you put on a heavy load it will fire much more often, can get up to a rapid putt-putt-putt sound. The wheels never spin any faster though.

[llplymouth]

the old hit and miss motors not very good on gas but back then was cheap

[ghettoc0]

To me, that's what engines should sound like.......Sound. Now days engines are made to be smooth and silent in most cars and even lawnmowers. But this is a simple time where you still heard an engine poot and pop like an engine should. Just sayin.

[Warndog9]

woot cant wait to take that baby to the strip ^_^

[zzytrewq]

Old style engines do have a certain charm. Looks great!

[buffloriders]

this is a hit and miss engine.. my pa has a bunch of them, we actually used all them around the farm to run elevators and augers and stuff... they are cool

[kwaky2005]

very cool that you got it running and kept it running good!! It would do people some good to remember where we came FROM instead of looking to what we can buy tomorrow

[MrCoolguy6273]

you can here it firing click click

[gozilla5000]

Its called a popping john engine, they used larger ones for saw mills and other stuff

[frosty9595]

Are you talking about the name of this particular engine or all engines that run like this? Because this is a hit and miss engine.

[gozilla5000]

Yea the pet name was popping john, my great uncle had one used it to cut the wood for his house.

[Snoowman92]

hahaha.... Thats the most ugly thing I have ever seen

[zzytrewq]

@Snoowman92 - got a mirror at home?

[Snoowman92]

@zzytrewq I know where you are going with this!

[zzytrewq]

@Snoowman92 -LOL

[reap62]

man drop that thing in a chevelle youll be pulling wheelies up and down your street all day

[vanveenmatt]

haha cool...

[angstlos888]

Sounds like a "hit-and-miss". It uses heavy flywheels to keep it rotating until it can hit the combustion stroke again.

[Lotum4n]

This is the same motor Noah had on the ark.

It's the first inboard by Evinrude.

[2Marijuanakid420]

@Lotum4n LMFAOOO

[breebw]

@Lotum4n Yes, it is the engine from the Ark, it fact the fuel prices for it are mentioned too: "For the Magic Water costeth nay 3 bushells, but 5. "(Genesis 6:9)

[ursusivulpea]

moara cu ciocanele?

[beegeesus2]

=))

[g11690102]

old hit and miss motor the rmp drops it fires the cyclinder causing it to speed up. listen close you can hear it fire every so often

[tejaslalit]

y ideal engine do u know wats that ...aya bada logo ko samje ne wala

[dhipender]

nice pro war machine i dont think there were diesel engine of tht size in tht period it defo gasoline slow cycle engine

slow cycle had less wear n tear for sure they keep goin for ages

[anthacdc]

To good for a lawn mower

[thebizzlehimself]

Beauty

[damiandick]

primitive

[ridinged92]

what is this running on 60 rpm??!!

[dmgcat]

whats it run on?

[tomgeier]

it runs on gasoline

[ilabolengo]

its no ideal...

[yaris4fun]

@tomgeier Thats not ideal.

[Synetearis]

@yaris4fun No shit sherlock

[arkuz13]

@tomgeier  lol :))

[cooldaddyjames2814]

@tomgeier what is the mpg on it?

[hvrwrstlr007]

@dmgcat It runs on pure nostalgia!

[animagus333]

nice
