I love how you do the videos. Straight to the point no BS. Just a down to earth guy. 👍

I just started watching your video's. The first thing I must say is that people, the human race, should aspire to be as authentic as you. You are a true human being and thank you for living that dream!

[@83gt460]

I wish I would have seen this two weeks ago. Dealing with a 1471 377 sbc combo and a hillborn 454 n/a with no prior knowledge of alcohol/mechanical injection. Very helpful.

[@BBBILLY86]

Great explanation of one of those never understood items. PS the fast talking reminds me of that Scotty Kilmer guy.

[@jvvis2034]

Hello Uncle Tony, I follow you from Buenos Aires .. I love your videos. especially those that you do outside the workshop driving. it's like going for a walk with your mechanical uncle chatting about cars ... continue like this.

[@deepinthought469]

The Scotty Kilmer style of video making...

[@johnpassmore8176]

Good info and to you gear heads telling Tony to slow down . Your watching a video so play it back as many times as needed. I hope I'm not texting to quick but I am using one thumb

[@santiagoferrari1973]

well I feel kinda stupid when he speaks fast.

[@timothyscherer9163]

This looks more complicated than bosch kugelfischer inline plunger pump mechanical injection for some reason

[@gabrielback5615]

Lol, I just watched this vid for the first time. You've come a long way Uncle Tony, keep up the good work.(Dec 13 2020)

[@phill903]

I always wondered how mechanical fuel injection worked thanks for explaining ;-)

[@davidroberts2404]

Basic hydraulics

[@SuperGabe55]

That allmost looks like a top fuel/ fuel up funny motor..😃

[@peterchristlieb]

I miss running a blown small block, 7 gallon pump and 6/71 with 1 set of hat nozzles. Doesn’t even need a hi speed, if you have one it becomes the pump saver. Run everything into a little manifold block and 1 -six return is all you need. Ultra simple!

[@Tommy_Mac]

Short and sweet, yet oh so complete! Ride On Tony!

[@ohnoitisnt]

on a video watching binge. Love it. Would love to see you revisit mech inj in more detail

[@fuel10922]

Great subject! Keep posting the information.

Thanks!

Love everything you do and the way you do them Uncle Tony, if you make sure shirts, Dad and I both want one

I love seeing these everyday at work. That one theres pretty big and ugly lol

[@swflmotorsportsfan6667]

great explanation of the fuel system!

[@ztwntyn8]

I think I got it. lol. At least the things you mentioned and makes sense. I didn’t know how to tune one before to any degree.

[@justinwright54]

Hopefully there's a part 2 just out of pure curiosity!!!

[@UncleTonysGarage]

Over time, there will be plenty of follow ups

hahaha uncle tony i will subscribe now cuz I'm mechanical man and i smoke all the time love the way u work best of luck

[@themisunderstoodgorilla7030]

Hell yeah man, thanks for the vid. Thumbs up!

[@isaacsgarage931]

I love you man! This is very helpful!

[@Juppie902]

So in general are the VW TDIs and SDI engines with PD (injector units driven by camshaft lobes, direct injection) considered mechanical EFI ? ECU controls the amount of time the injector runs but the cam is actuating the pressure, coupled with a camshaft driven tandem (vacuum and diesel) pump to bring that fuel to the block

[@ck4181]

These earlier videos sounds like he's had too much caffeine .

[@WS-gw5ms]

Subscribed. I love your video. I get you are going for rocket fire info. But can you please slow down just a hair, and include a bit more information? Just a thought. Either way I like it and will share.

[@tommylyeah]

Ever been a case of nitro detonating *INSIDE* the mechanical fuel system?

[@UncleTonysGarage]

Never. It needs heat and pressure to become volatile. Behaves just like water in every other respect

[@tommylyeah]

@@UncleTonysGarage - Seriously? Wow, that's wild. I'm glad to hear that, a bit less worried now about using the stuff later on. Thanks!

[@davidroberts2404]

@@tommylyeah nitro wont burn on its own. But take a bottle cap full and pour it onto a steel table and bang it with a hammer and watch what happens

[@jeremyhanna3852]

That is nostalgic mechanical fuel inj for nitro the alchohol inj on a sprint car works on a similar theory but there is 8 barrel valves in the stacks the tuning is way more of a pain in the ass theres enuff check valves to start a parts store

[@davidroberts2404]

Same as this. None have 8 barrel valves they all have 1 unless its a big show nitro car that runs a barrel valve on each side of the hat.

[@jamoshotrod]

I know the vid is a year old, but it explains it for a simpleton. Good info, but when people really want to start tuning, it can become rocket science for some.

[@manicgraphics6387]

*Hangs around fuel lines with cigarette* this is how i know you know what you're talking abount

[@zragevii4705]

I'd love to see advice on tuning these on a typical engine

[@cedricpidde2633]

0:06 it was at that point I knew this is the guy I needed to explain mechanical injection to me

[@wolfrikvonschwarzblut3921]

I pretty much understand it, with this video and some other online articles that I've red. But there's still something which I have doubts about: is the fuel injected *before* or *after* the blower?

[@davidroberts2404]

The hat nozzles are basically used to seal up and keep the rotors cool. Most all the tuning is done with the port nozzles since we base everything off of 100 psi. The pump on that car is called an enderle 1100 which flows 17.4 gpm the car on the lift has a more modern psi roots but smaller cubic inches so it has a 1200 pump. Its always better to habe too much pump and just return excess back to the tank than not have enough fuel.

[@allurared9029]

​@@davidroberts2404I am very interested in mechanical injection, but having a really hard time finding a comprehensive source of info about it. Any books or series you know of that shows how to design and tune one of these systems?

[@armyblouvet54]

Tony. Can you do a video on the older mopar transmissions what's best and why and for what applications. I'm a new school GM guy just getting into mopars with my 69 barracuda

[@UncleTonysGarage]

At some point, yes, we can do that

[@cyberdude721]

do you know of any good books for supercharging and injection

[@baerster]

I love your channel and I love the content of this video but I do appreciate that you started talking a bit more slowly and less like a sportscaster (less like S Killmer) as you made more videos LOL.

[@slainbybullet]

I almost miss seeing you scream at the camera

[@mightymopar128]

Great video Tony. I'm upgrading my Enderle 110 (13.2GPM) to a 1100(17.2GPM) on my blown alcohol hemi. The 110 pump flow is border line but the 1100 is a little more than what I need. Do I need to install a pump sizer line with a poppet or will the pump saver line on my enderle barrel valve work ? Thank you, Bill

[@mikegibbs5149]

That looks like Robert's car I think I drove that and built the engine one time yeah looks familiar good job tone knee

Hi Uncle Tony, now there's 32 comments

[@firebreathinggarage2117]

I usually read the comments, some like your short vids, others are like slow down. Do you make more revenue off 100 2 minute videos than fewer 10 minute? Some like your antics, some want to learn, I'm still trying to figure out what your vids are about. I've seen those who get thousand of subs then change their tactics. I'm an old Mopar man, 68 B body like yours, two 440's one 383, late Hemi, and a little over a half a dozen other vehicles. Most would have to watch that video several times to half figure it out, but maybe that's the point.
