Engine Running On GUNPOWDER

I Run the see-through engine on gunpowder and film it in slow motion with the high-speed camera to see exactly what happens when an engine runs gunpowder instead of gasoline the results were nothing short of entertaining and amazing.
this was a viewer request to try and run the see-through engine on black powder or gunpowder.
I first had to rig up the engine and build some sort of delivery system to introduce the black powder into the engine while I was running, it was quite a challenge to actually get it to work, originally I attempted but it did not work and then I figured out a better solution which I show in this video.
I got it to work and the results were spectacular, hopefully you enjoy the video and please tell me what you think in the comments below.

You are probably right, it was a really great demonstration for how the reaction characteristics of black powder change once you get it under pressure, the exhaust valve was open when it ignited. I can't help to think what the cylinder pressure was inside of the engine before it exploded.

[@ALuzionz]

Yeah, the engine is probably filmed before the explosion, as the gun powder is still in the pipe. What a shitty way to A. Try to sell a product, and B. Bait people in to thinking it still runs. I dont see this as being a product placement, but why the fuck would you make it out like it is one? Also, Look closely, The Crank is completely different. The wheel is Silver where as in the video of it exploding, it's completely rusted. 2 entirely different engines.

Love the referrence to F&F1, but that bit told me the creators didn't know as much about engines as they wanted us to believe. Have you ever seen an intake manifold that was welded together? All the manifolds I've ever seen were cast, it would cost the manufacturer more to weld them together. One more nit to pick, have you ever used a 3/4" torque wrench on a car? That big a wrench is used on heavy machinery like bulldozers or semis, the guy who wrote the script doesn't belong in any shop!

Gasoline: is combustible Black powder: is an explosive

[@kainhall]

gas can explode much like black as well..... its called "detonation" or "pinging" when its in a motor. . it sounds like someone is in your engine..... hitting the top of the piston with a hammer and it kinda is like a hammer blow..... . the gas explodes.... causing a much sharper (and higher) pressure curve/spike it can shatter pistons bend rods melt holes in pistons.... . etc

[@xeigen2]

Gunpowder is a low explosive that does not detonate but rather deflagrates (burns quickly at subsonic speed).

[@dallynsr]

lol! if gas doesn't explode under compression then how does an engine run on combustion? that's your charcoal briquettes soaked with kerosene,..."combustion" but calls it explosion cause it burns your eyebrows off. the same stochio mixture under 8/1 compression in a bbq size box would blow the side of your house off.

[@winstonpoplin]

@@dallynsr Look up "detonate" and "deflagrate". That should clear up your confusion. You seem to be confusing the two words. Gasoline in an engine undergoes deflagration, not detonation. There is a very specific and important difference.

[@UTubeHandlesSuck]

Actually, neither gasoline nor black powder are more than low explosives, which is why powder is clearly labelled and considered a propellant which can be purchased without any sort of explosives licensing. Nice fail though.

[@atourdeforce]

@@fuelvolts I like the guy, I love the videos , but this isn't even the tip of the iceberg. Even in this video he was grinding black powder/gun power in a coffee grinder. Grinding regular black powder nitrate/sulfur/charcoal is dangerous due to static build up, but he was grinding commercial stuff which contains high amounts of nitro glycerin, makes it far more sensitive to shock and friction from the grinder blades it's just utter lunacy. I've often wondered how his videos dont get strikes for being reckless and dangerous. I've nothing against him personally but sometimes it just really REALLY feels like he doesnt understand the dangers hes putting himself and others in.

I said that because there was a lot of smoke from the experiment and I didnt want people to think it was black powder per sae. Both are still a no no for a coffee grinder but it's even more careless and dangerous to grind smokeless powder, due to there being a high percentage of nitro glycerin in those.

I believe that there was 2 explosions instead of one. Because you can see that when he showed the aftermath, the remaining part of see through head is in different place. And in the second shot (5:16) there is the tube with gunpowder. So i belevie that after that he mounted the original head and run the engine.

Pred is correct, also there's an end clip where he blows it up AGAIN.

[@josephzamora2267]

He accidentally put the explosions in the wrong order when he edited the video

[@DirtBikeGrub]

All wrong. he was going to do another explosion on stock head but chickened out. Plus his neighbour Jack suffered a coronary.

[@theatvman7060]

Why is the tube of gunpowder in the scene when he tests it after it Blew up

[@jasonwinback]

I hope is because he will blow it up with the metal head in another episode

[@robertboykin1828]

God was watching out 4 him.

[@cottoaa5133]

I was saying the same thing didn't the tube brake

[@monkmonk1132]

👆 Up this comment, he has to answer that !

[@micheltulane4656]

Up! I was wondering the same thing

[@hermanbester8005]

loved it man. your neighbor must love the sound to

[@tygoulding2547]

That was freaking awesome!!!!

[@TheSgtYoshi]

New Camera looks like the colors are more saturated. Looks good

[@XenHat]

agreed. looks better to me too.

[@rurallegendstv]

I just want to point out that it looks like it detonated past TDC. In theory that piston should be destroyed. The valves should be bent. And the engine still ran. If this doesn't convince you that the Briggs Flathead is the most indestructible engine I dont know what will. Great shots. Awesome experiment. I love it.

[@avandeve]

I think if the head was not blown, the engine will definitely broken

[@DRUM-is9lu]

Am I the only one that noticed the blooper? The tube full of gun powder is in the footage of it "running again"? Unless there is a video coming up with him feeding gunpowder into it with the standard head on the engine?

[@Canallgm]

@@DRUM-is9lu i noticed the same thing

[@cncgeneral]

Looks like he did it twice, you can see the damage is different in the slow mo, he just edited and wrote the script badly

[@Eduardo_Espinoza]

the head gave way so the engine didnt eat the full blast only spit it out

[@aliciaellis2832]

OMG THAT WAS AMAZING. all so the music in the slow-mo was freaking perfect

[@ericmcguire5469]

That was bad ass! By far my favorite
