10 Strangest Engines of All Time

[@mikeshotrodshop]

Not one real image of the variable displacement Cadillac engine. A flathead, a early 70 standard V8, but nothing about the topic. Please.

[@marktinkler6897]

Diesel driven generator to power an electric drive train. Exactly how modern train engines work.

[@leeverink32]

oil and fuel consumption in rotors where a big issue in these engines and so they had a short and expensive live span.

[@johnhenke6475]

Felix Wankel was a Nazi who was so militant he got kicked out of the Nazi party. Imagine being such a hot head the Nazis have to tell you to chill out.

[@JamesConner-wm3mw]

WHAT A LOAD OF.........

[@leeverink32]

The 32R is the latest in the VR6 engines and a 2.9 with blower was made

[@robmcguire9756]

The sleeve valve engine is a 2 cycle

[@bigal2876]

I had a Mazda and loved it. The gas mileage was pretty bad. My brother had a bigger engine in his and he out ran 350 Nova.

[@BS-ys8zn]

Presenting a Wankel motorcycle as having an axial engine ? more pathetic the farther this goes, What's next,

[@jimmyp5123]

yep. shown the suzuki re5

[@Rusty-METAL-J]

The VW Beetle had a rear mounted Wenkel Rotary Engine.

[@jsepp108]

The only Beetle that had a rotary engine was one that was swapped from a Mazda RX7. The standard Beetle came with a horizontally opposed 4 cylinder air-cooled engine.

[@michelbrown1060]

As for sleeve valves engine, you forgot the magnificent Napier H 24 airplane engine

[@Jasmine33221]

The VR6 is still being made they just dropped the R and call it V6 now. They are used in the VW Atlas.

[@normbarrows2]

A 15 degree v6, a caddy 8-6-4 (with no actual footage), a Wankel, a DOHC VW bug (Porche) motor - nothing really strange there. Sleeve valve engines (pre-WW1 tech) - and jet fighter footage? Various opposed piston designs, and no Atkinson cycle engine.

[@paradiselost9946]

no humphrey pump. no melhuish aka gothic oil engine. no lamplough six cylinder two stroke, or 16 cylinder barrel engine... not really much of anything...

[@spentacle]

The Junkers engine was the inspiration for the Deltic when German designs were made available post WW2, or was that WW1? They could have been shown in chronological order.

[@stevegreen2432]

Not correct to show a photo of a JET fighter every time you say an engine is used in aircraft!!

[@1crazypj]

I had a few Citroen GS, but, it was after the rotary with a 130cc flat four OHC motor. Very efficient, 110 mph and fantastic ride (when it was working properly) The only issue was the suspension which was always expensive to fix and failed every 18 months or so.

[@Milosz_Ostrow]

(17:56) I think this Hercules motorcycle is powered by a Wankel engine, not a Duke axial piston engine. Has Duke ever tested one of their engines in a road vehicle or aircraft? If they haven't, I fear the concept will go the way of the Zoche radial aircraft engine.

[@BS-ys8zn]

Porsche raced in NASCAR?

[@Milosz_Ostrow]

(11:50) Is that Jay Leno at the wheel?

[@chrissometimes7473]

Yes, and the car he is driving has nothing to do with the subject being talked about - this applies to a lot of the video content in this piece.

[@steveprebble1065]

What is this GARBAGE?

[@garyfreida6504]

The Cadillac V8 6 4 engine had more flaws in its life time.

Don't rely on this vid for accurate information!

[@BS-ys8zn]

No mention the Tucker's flat 6 was a modified (water jacketed) aircraft engine. That's a big miss

[@marconius101]

Yes it does.. At 13:00 they show the Tucker flat 6

[@garyzimmer4149]

24:01 As we all know, F16s have sleeve valve engines. Maybe one day KZbin will introduce a fact checker that automatically deletes rubbish like this.

[@paradiselost9946]

along with the millions of "free energy" videos with speaker magnets glued to PC fans accompanied by happy chappy "copyright free" music...

[@jeffnolan7392]

I'll never know, I'm marking this channel, "Do Not Recommend".

[@CRUZER1800]

Be aware.... there is a Lot of BS being thrown around in this one. Who do they think they are talking to??

[@Gettrying101]

The hydrogen engine was kept for others in army forces. I say army as in Americans army. They kept it but still working on it

[@sidneydepret8883]

ow my... why shows an mx5 when talking about wankel engines?

[@nunosantiago2273]

Engines? How about some technical drawings and mechanical ninformation?

[@garreysellars5525]

I was interested until he mentioned the EV Zero emissions 😮. Baaaaaa s t
