You need to modify the cam shaft as well. When there are extra strokes the valves will be half open, half closed, and it will take fuel and air in, but will actually expell the fuel when there is a wasted stroke between intake and compression stroke, the valves are opened and will expell fuel and air from the intake. The camshaft needs the lobes moddified so the valves are closed during intake and compression strokes ,and are opened when exhaust stroke is in action. It can be done but camshaft needs a lot of work even if it even can be done. This will make engine have les horspower and will waste a lot of fuel. On paper it can be done but in real life it will be realy hard.

Won't waste any fuel. Intakes and exhausts will be closed during the wasted strokes. It should spin twice as fast and make a slightly lower horsepower. Edit: It's basically just compressing the air, then springing back when the air wants to expand on the wasted strokes, like a diesel trying to engine brake without a Jake brake. Double edit: Actually, it shouldn't be compressing much air since the intake and exhaust will be closed, so either the pressure of vacuum will cause it to slow and lose power or it really won't make much difference in power at all, other than needing to spin at twice the RPM to make it as the original configuration. I'd love to see them actually try this.

If they reduce speed of camshaft twice that mean:on intake stroke valve stay open when piston go down and up, for compresion stroke. That explain why carburator leak fuel on air filter side, piston push back air fuel mixture. On next crankshaft rotation, piston go down and up but all valve is closes so ignition mixture is weak because in previus crankshaft rotation piston push out thrue carburatior most of mixture, that explain poor performane and hard to start engine. I think they need to change camshaft to short time for valve open pozition.

Make a 3 cylinder engine that is 2 stroke diesel on the front cylinder and 4 stroke gasoline on the middle back two. Using 3 out of 4 cylinders on your Lada engine the crankshaft will already be right. You just need a cam shaft with extra lobes for the 2 stroke cylinder, and an exhaust that works. A flat-plane 3 cylinder effectively firing like a 4 cylinder. Firing order 1-3-1-2. Make that work and then build an in-line 6 engine with the front and rear cylinders 2 stroke. A cross-plane in-line 6 cylinder effectively firing like a 8 cylinder. Firing order 1-5-6-2-1-4-6-3.

@kidkidu2 Hell, I dunno. I think if you fiddled with the cam timing enough, you could sort of achieve a duration average in which it sorta worked, like it did in the video. However... I think they were trying to achieve a full otto cycle (per cylinder) followed by a "dead" cycle. I don't believe that's what happened. It would run like death- exactly like 2 dead holes on a four cylinder. Instead, I think they achieve that average I mentioned, which resulted in no "dead" strokes- just no performance, either.

Great video! You´ll need to re-shape the cam lobes as well. Otherwise, the intake valve will not yet be fully open when the intake stroke ends, but will be fully open at some point during the upwards 'waste' stroke after it. Similarly, the exhaust valve will be fully open during the downwards 'waste' stroke after the upwards exhaust stroke. The engine might run, as you demonstrated, but with great loss of power and wasted fuel too.

Thats amazing it ran even idled! Now of course, if we are to be honest, its probably cutting the already modest power output of that Lada in half. Just like a two stroke makes roughly twice as much power as a four stroke, this would make very little power since the combustion is happening so infrequently and the crank is basically coasting for longer in between explosions. I bet theres a use for it in some industrial setting though, and probably is already. Good job as usual boys!

I suggested an 8 stroke cycle in a Senior project in 1971. The idea was based on the Eaton/GM 8/6/4 system idea. Rather than shut down a cylinder bank or a set of cylinders until extra power was needed each cylinder was left fallow for 4 cycles (2 revs) before another power cycle begins. This would have an engine from say an 8 cylinder engine to a 4 cylinder. This can now be done with electronics controlling spark and fuel, even valves if necessary. This keeps the cylinders warm for better efficiency. That being better wear, emissions and reduced friction on unpowered cycles. I think this would give around 30% improvement in efficiency. I outlined this in a paper at my university in Valparaiso Indiana. Unfortunately technical and time deficiencies precluded physical modeling. Check with university for any patent issues. Cheers.

i think you forgot about the compression, the valves are closed by default which would cause restrictions when the "wasted stroke" happens which is likely why the starter was having such a hard time. if you had one of the valves open this problem would be somewhat alleviated, if you use the exhausts you will be sucking pollutants back into the engine further contaminating the oil, if you use the intake then you mess with the vacuum/intake physics. best thing would be a "open air" valve but this would require more engine modifications than a single video would cover. maybe multiple videos but it would require much more than just crank/valve ratios. Using only 4 cyl engine this makes it much more difficult since you are moving 3 pistons with a single piston providing the power so this issue would be much more pronounced vs something like a I8 or I6 engine.

Do they have a custom cam shaft on this because simply halving the speed of the camshaft will not do what they want. Normally you have INTAKE valve open, then both valves closed for compression and ignition expansion, then EXHAUST valve open for the final stroke. Even if timed correctly at the beginning, a half speed camshaft will have the intake valve open on both drawing fuel in and the compression, trying to send fuel air mixture back where it came from (hence the carburettor spewing fuel), then you will have two complete crank shaft revolutions with both valves closed, and then the exhaust valve will be open to draw exhaust into the cylinder and blow it straight out again. That's if you avoid damaging the valves if they are open with the cylinder at top dead centre.

I don't believe they actually did it, it's not possible in the way they did it. Having a camshaftsprocket twice the size means the intake valve is open when the piston goes down and also back up, pushing out all the air and gasoline. Then the wasted stroke, then powerstroke at the end of the wasted stroke. At 12:05 you can see they have fitted a bigger cranksprocket to make the ratio 2:1 again, which is normal for a 4 stroke engine. The 8 stroke engine would've needed a 4:1 gear ratio.

To make this work correctly you are going to have to shorten all the cam lobes by half the duration of an engine spinning at the same RPM as normal. The cam is now spinning 1 time to every 4 engine revolutions. The only true way to know if this is a power adder or not is with something that can test pulling power against a normal one. You are going to have to shorten that cam though so the coughing you were talking about can actually happen. With this, you will get the true definition of expansion, and the second burn is possible with an 8-stroke engine so potentially adding more fuel during the second stroke of compression could be used. As a tuner, I would put a second direct injector for the second stroke before the exhaust ever even opens. The second fuel injector will not need nearly as much fuel to ignite as there is not as much oxygen in the cylinder either and cylinder cooling could be something to worry with as achieving a true burn at 800 degrees or so might be an issue and building heat would take double or triple the time to do. Just food for thought.

Id be interested to see the garage54 take on the engine being developed by toyota/mazda. A 2 stroke with valves, a cam running at x2 speed and a supercharger to push gases through. Similar to a detroit diesel but with conventional intake via poppet valves.

I say build a lada engine as extreme as possible, huge cam, 4 barrel, crazy intake, high compression pistons, ported head, unless you already did this build..

A 6-stroke was patented in 1917, and many times since, so no doubt people have tried this before.

Awesome April's fool! I don't see how to make it work without a custom camshaft, operating at half speed. The cams need to implement the series of 4 idle strokes with either opened exhaust or intake valves (I would pick the exhaust valves unless the engine has separate injectors for each cylinder).

6 stroke engines injected water into the chamber between each exhaust and air intake stroke. They were the most efficient and powerful engines of WW2 fighter aircraft

I don't recall any WWII fights being six stroke with water injection. Most aircraft used 4 strokes, either V-12s, inverted V-12S or radials, usually double row. There was one special engine which was the British Napier Sabre which used sleeve valves, but it was still 4 stroke. What engine are you referring to exactly that had 6 strokes. And from my understanding having 2 strokes out of 6 where water is being injected may only be a wasted of power.

They did use water injection. But it was misted into the intake air. Helped with cooling so you could run leaner and not burn up valves, iirc.

That is just water injection, it does not make it 6 stroke... Some people do it on high performance turbo car engines to get even more power and cool down the engine so they can run even higher turbo boost.

Lean carb on 4 stroke would be rich on a 8 stroke, didn't see them touch it. Get that air/fuel ratio it should fire on it's own.

Aren't you slowing down the cam lobes so thee valves are probably open while the piston is up and down before the valve closes?

04:25 - 24 volts frying everything? Ha! No... 😏.. Years back, I had an old Ford Orion 1.6, and one day she wouldn't start, so a friend came and helped me with a spare good battery and so we connected it up to the Orions' battery, but, STILL no joy... So... For sh!ts n giggles, I connected the batteries up in serial! F@ck yeah!!! she spun up QUICK! But, still wouldn't start... So, back to the 2 battery 12v way, and after more attempts, she FINALLY started up!!! 😎🇬🇧

You need a non interference engine with an exhaust valve open for 6 strokes so the piston isn’t fighting the stagnant air. Plus your intake is now open for two strokes

The main issue is like what others have mentioned. Your duration is extremely long. What you would have to do is have extremely short duration cams, so they only open on the stroke you want to fire on. What you have is an intake/exhaust stroke that lasts the duration of 2 strokes rather than a single stroke. Currently your intake stroke is so long that you're getting flow reversal, which is why you have fuel spitting out the intake.

You've doubled the cam lobe duration, so, you'll have to grind the lobes to half the duration
