This tired, old two stroke didn't run that well so my friend and I decided we would try something more powerful...
Yes, I know the sound is messed up for some reason. It was fine when I uploaded it and was fine for 110,000 views. the problem is on youtubes end, not mine.

  • so. its running RC glowfuel? first of all WHY? that fuel is $25 a gallon. plus i cant hear it running or smell the fumes so how do i know. and ive never tried to put that in a gas engine and it shouldnt run because it needs way more compression to burn.

  • We were trying to run it on a gas/oil 2 cycle mix and it didn't run right. we ran out of gas and all we had a gallon of rc fuel. after messing around with it for 20 minutes or so we took several videos but this was the only one that came out semi ok. About a year ago the sound went weird and I just didn't bother re uploading or deleting it. I wish I could motivate my friend to get it out and take a longer, better quality video just to prove its true, although the gears are all stripped out..

  • I hate to 'pop your balloon' Mr. Rocket Scientist, but Briggs & Stratton doesn't make 2-strokes and the engine pictured is a 4-stroke.

  • It is a two stroke engine. I'm getting tired of people who don't know what they're talking about.

    The quality of the video isn't good enough to show the engine. I can take close up pictures if I need to to prove that it is NOT a 4 stroke.

  • its not running soley on nitro. its mixed with gas. ive done it before. maybe with a new engine with high compression .

  • Again, I will say: There was no gasoline in the tank, just RC car Nitromethane. Also, there could not have been any residual gasoline because we had been messing around with it for a half hour and the tank was empty before we put the RC fuel in.

  • sounds like a hand cupped under an armpit like one of those armpit farts

  • ALERT: If you are using nitromethane as a fuel the exhaust will have a high component of nitric acid vapour which destroys protein - like your lungs - thats why top fuel and funny car drivers are wearing a filtration type of respirator - be careful here.

  • my friend had an off-road car, we ran out of gas and he had recently solf his nitro rc trucks and he had a couple gallons of rc fuel left over, the car ran better on the rc fuel than even supreme gasoline

  • wow the sound on this video is just simply amazing

  • @JGMagoo um.. yes they did..

  • @JGMagoo your a dum ass Briggs & Stratton make 2-stroke

  • First off, it might be a good idea to have an actual running engine on a vid that says “B&S running on nitro.” And hold on a second. Wouldn’t you have to drill the shit out of the jets (assuming your engine is an old enough model to even have removable jets) to get the right air fuel ratio for nitro? Especially the intermediates which tend to be pretty lean on small engines.

  • @JGMagoo i know a shitload more about b and s than u do and they do have 2 strokes, they even still have them on their site! fucktard

  • @MerlinxPV Tool among tools? Is that supposed to be insulting? You're saying I'm useful amongst useful people. As in, more useful than average. Wouldn't that be a compliment instead?

  • @TestECull What obscenities from me TOOL? You are indeed a TOOL among tools.

  • @MerlinxPV Ok I'm fluent in idiot, AOL, leet and general internet text, and yet I have NO fucking idea what you're trying to say.

    You must be in that region of pissed where you just start randomly blurting out obscenities. It's a shame, too, as I didn't even try.
