@@Speedfight_MHR70_PIAGGIO thanks

@@nihalsripathi9395 no problem!

@@customproject12 thanks, ya the reason for the lack of a full seal is because of the weak rubber band, I am looking to find some springs that fit over a axel so it will work better.

@ if you have lego shocks absorber you can take theme appart and take the spring

@@customproject12 do you think the yellow ones are to strong? i would use the grey ones buy i dont have anymore

@@ElijahCoteif you don't compresse them to much, i think it's fine. Try it you are gonna see if it works better

@@customproject12 i will see

Thanks so much!!

Yes I am working on a tutorial for this engine should be out tomorrow

they are offset by a quarter of a rotation, a 90 degree offset.

@ElijahCote so If the Piston IS rotated a quarter clockwise, the valve is fully Open/at the top?

@@Retikulum01 so the valve is basically fully open as the cylinder reaches the top, but due to the cranks being different sizes the valve starts to close right before the cylinder reaches the top.

@ElijahCote oh ok thank you

Put a vacuum up to the intake, make sure it has a good seal, than you should be able to kick start the engine by pushing the flywheel.

@ thank you

I tried to run it but its not working. is there anything I could have done wrong.

@@nihalsripathi9395 here are some things to check for, a powerful enough vacuum, is there a lot of friction with the moving parts, spin the engine to check if it can carry it’s self through a stroke and check your engine timing, it should go like this, valve opens, cylinder starts to rise because of the vacuum pressure, as it reaches the top, the valve closes, allowing for air to enter chamber and pressure goes back to normal. This makes the piston go down and the cycle restart. The flywheel carry’s the engine through the stroke

thank you i will check

@@Plop2500 just collecting pieces over the years

@ElijahCote ok thank U :)

@@ShB-d5t thanks glad it is helpful

@@prestonperryiscoolyt glad I could help!

yo read other comments before you comment because chances are it was already answered. the reason it is slow is because of a very weak vacuum, watch the short i posted if this engine where i am using a better vacuum.

Wdym, how to build it?

@ you build it soo can you tell me how to build it?

@@ShB-d5t yes I will post a totorial

Tutorial

@@ElijahCote okay ty but can you make it bigger please?

@@rslaim2508 Да, это был классный проект, я делаю встроенную 4 прямо сейчас, обязательно подпишитесь на его видео!!

@@tjthegamer5390 yes I will try that, what is the significance in using a tire though? Just never crossed my mind why this technique is used.

​@@ElijahCote propably being used as a seal. I'm not exactly sure what he is referencing, but it reckon it would make a lot of sense, taping or using the tire or some other type of sealant to make it air tight meaning more air being sucked through the engine itself

@@ElijahCote I give a much better seal on the Lego than your tape ever will.

@@tjthegamer5390 mind you this was a weak vacuum, look at the short I posted, it speaks for its self

It seals way better and holds the vacuum hose against the engine so you dont have to hold it

yes, this was run on a very weak vacuum itself, I uploaded a short where it is run on a more powerful vacuum and it had a lot mote power.

@@ElijahCote good job

@@ssssss-r8r thanks

I guess I lost interest in this kind of stuff, plus I have been caught up in school. Maybe I will go back at some point.

less print time and less supports is my terminology i guess

unfortunately it is very much out of commission, its pieces separated and some of them disposed of. but I am currently working on new design featuring a dual tone! it will be out soon. this time I will list the file so you have the capability of making your very own!

@@ElijahCote ok thanks!

what can I do better with my small collection of legos and not a ton of time on my hands?

Cool channel, I love your stop motions, should I make a detachable chair lift next?

thanks

yer funny luca avarage ai

what do you mean?

@@ElijahCote is there a link

@@jamesmoore5572 like for what

@@ElijahCote 3d printed 5 port

@@jamesmoore5572 no sorry

ya, already made and am making better models that are louder

I definitely will look into doing that! once i fix my printer 😅

lets go!

thank you so much

thanks you
