See Through Engine on NITROMETHANE - Blow Up Attempts 1 -9 Crazy !

You're highly elevated crankcase pressure is blowing the oil past the seals. But watching this thing run Full Tilt Boogie I can't believe what I'm looking at it defies everything that I thought I knew

[@mrvwbug4423]

Also highly likely that the rings failed and the blowby made the crankcase pressure even worse, thus blowing oil out the seals.

[@s2upid]

Methanol is thinner than gasoline from a molecular standpoint. It leaks past the rings and milks the oil. That's why you change the oil after every time at the track on a methanol car. Essentially that oil was mixed with methanol/nitro which thinned it out.

I ran a 5 hp Briggs motor on nitro that was on a go-kart when I was 12 years old. I ran into the issue of fuel mixture problems. Had to make a custom intake runner & carb. Also made a custom bracket to advance the timing. it worked and didn't destroy the engine until I revved it a lot and starved it of fuel. Basically never finished it but I bet if you could keep fuel in it and keep it cool it would run ok for a while. Also, need a billet head as it blew the head gasket a few times and a way to vent the crankcase as the nitro is causing a ton of blow by the rings and is why the oil is being literally blown out. Super cool project and makes me want to try it again.

[@177SCmaro]

Nitromethane isn't as dangerous as it might seem. The reason thouse Top Fuel engines occasionally explode has more to do with HOW MUCH nitro they try to burn at once rather than the fact that it's nitro. An ordinary engine can run it but it has to be tuned property and the additional stress on parts needs to be factored in.

[@Dr.Westside]

177SCmaro It could also be that additional oxygen atom added on to the petro chemical string. Education is priceless but a new motor for your car will cost you a few thousand bucks.

[@kineticinstallationspecial5775]

177SCmaro Exactly. There's more power in 85 octane gasoline than there is in nitromethane.

[@177SCmaro]

charles bishop Technically, yes.

[@david20051973]

Its about time someone realised that the nitro methane only provides the engine with more oxygen into the combustion chamber. The top fuel engines are only able to produce more power through careful tuning of the engine through compression rations, large enough combustion chambers plus heaps of fuel which includes the energy included in the hydrocarbon part of the fuel, separate from the nitromethane. The only way any engines can ever produce heaps of power is by getting as much oxygen onto the combustion chamber, plus the appropriate amount of hydrocarbons to burn the available oxygen. Simple really, as long as the engine can hold together with power that it can produce.

[@MCRmechanic]

When you turbocharge it, you should drill out the main jet in the carb to increase your fuel ratio (use the main jet hole cross sectional area in ratio to the Venturi minor diameter to get your fuel flow increase in the ball park). Nitromethane has a much wider tuning window, but you still need at lot more than gasoline to get the big bang you're looking for. Loved the video. I'll be looking forward to your turbo video.

[@superalvin7208]

I think it has an adjustable main jet

[@N_Richd1]

Man that was quite an amazing video.. Very interesting.. All 19 minutes and 18 seconds of it.. I'm glad I clicked on it... :)

[@Krivulda]

This poor thing got so fast that the oil pressure skyrocketed through the roof, so all the gaskets are now just toothpicks in the way of angry bull :)

[@Romans--bo7br]

Krivulda...... while that may be partly true... the main problem with running "pop" (as we call Nitro in drag racing)... IS, Oil Dilution... and of course, oil level increase along with it. Briggs engines still (even though this one is an older model) use the very simplistic (and Antiquated) "splash" method of "lubricating" the engine.... so any increase in oil "pressure"... is confined to the crankcase and as the oil level increases (from dilution) it also decreases the air space internally and as the oil becomes thinner and thinner it Will find places to relieve that pressure and thinned out oil through every orifice that it can.

[@Aerogrow]

yea, any old wka or gocart racers will remeber dumping the light gray goop of oil after each race. Start with 1 litre, end race with 1.5. We used to run large external breathers/catch cans that recycled back into crank. Would be interesting to see how many bars of pressure where kicking around in the crankcase.

[@StreuB1]

Nice job Matt. See if you can buy an aftermarket magnetor for that engine. I am pretty sure they make them. Nitro needs a LOT of spark energy to get a complete ignition, you're right there. But it also needs a longer spark duration to pump a lot of heat energy into the system. Nearing full throttle, you began getting near that energy threshold. If you had a hotter spark with a bit more duration, I think you would have it. I will say.......adapting an MSD 6 redbox to this and adding a crank trigger to fire it would do it.

[@ostelo84]

could probably use a little higher compression as well which would help build more heat up.

[@StreuB1]

Not really as much as you'd think. Nitro doesn't act like most other fuels since it carries its own oxygen. Fuel altreds run no forced induction and run modest compression. They gain their immense power from harnessing the power of the molecular oxygen available. The issue is giving it enough spark energy to break that bond and liberate the oxygen. Fuel motors want two things, drenched in fuel and bathed in spark and timing. There is a saying, if it wasn't for the magnetos, fuel motors would be fuel pumps. Literally, in order to get power out of them, you need an insane amount of fuel. The amount of fuel that makes you think "No way, I am flooding the cylinder!!!" Nope, you're just getting it where it needs to be. Give it the right amount of spark and you'll let the genie out of the bottle.

[@goose27162]

A crank trigger with a high output coil would do the trick.

[@josea.rodriguezvalentin4436]

I am pretty sure of that if you can make it a bigger sparkling maybe you can get it

[@dvirus2000]

not sure of the total energy of the spark, but a modern gas engine should be around 40kV to the plug out of the coil @ShadowPBPBC from what i know you need higher energy spark to light bad mixtures easily

[@Magnacharger07]

Nitro is a highly compression sensitive fuel so if you have enough compression like at full speed and enough heat in the engine it could run without spark. Or at low speed with enough heat same applies. They also don't always have 50 degrees of timing in it. I can send you to runs I have found in my travels that are pretty cool. It shows fuel curve and timing. Really cool stuff. It also has its own oxygen so you can burn way more of it. I'm amazed at how well it ran. This is my new favorite video on KZbin

All the other fuels you've put through this engine explode with a dull flame-y, fwoosh-y "boom" compared to nitromethane, which explodes with a sharp, almost metallic-sounding "crack" and the flame almost--nay LITERALLY burns white hot at 12:11. Slow the video down to half speed during the slow mo bit and the sound is incredible. Watching the combustion fly out of the melted spacer at the end was like watching the finale at a fireworks show, and just as dazzling. What gets me is how the metal spacer failed before the acrylic head did.

GREAT VIDEO!!! I think the oil came out of the crank case breather and or maybe blew a seal somewhere...I would still use it on my GO CART No Problem , with the Nitro!!! Thanks for sharing...

[@mspenrice]

This is pretty amazing, and an excellent unintentional (?) advert for the bomb-proofness of B&S engines (which clearly ain't no BS) on top of all the countless examples still ticking away in 50+ year old lawnmowers around the world... One part I found both satisfying and surprising was how, at least on the bench, it sounded rather like a miniature top fuel dragster engine during the pre-run burnout, most unexpected for something so small. Interesting that the change of fuel could have such an influence on how an engine *sounds* as well as runs. I had thought the difference in sound between e.g. an automotive petrol and (non-turbo) diesel engine was mainly down to the structure, how they're built and how they produce combustion, but maybe it was simply down to the fuel and how it burns all along? (Also, what capacity is the cylinder on this, how does it compare to the individual chambers of a dragster? It looks a little larger than any piston I've handled before, or at least equal to them, which pegs it around 400cc if it has the same stroke as the engine I'm thinking of... I expect a typical funny car has larger cylinders, but, could be wrong) And what framerate were you recording at this time? It'd be nice to be able to work out the ultimate rpm. Daresay it could probably be done by ripping the audio and just counting off the cracks against the timeline in an audio editor, but, hey, if you've got a high speed camera, may as well make best use of the footage. (Where do you even get all that stuff, and the clapperboard and pro grade regular speed camera? Side project of a TV studio that utilises a lot of high speed footage?) Tempted to see if I can get some nitro now, give it a go in my bike... not for extra power or revs, just for the sound. Base model 125s have a rather disappointing sound anywhere except in the saddle ... when you're on top it sounds rather sporty, but when another of the same model passes by it's a combination of sewing machine and wet fart. Be nice to have the outside sound match up to what reaches your helmet just for once. Though, I do need to perform some remedial work on it first... might be smaller capacity but it puts out about 3x what the B&S claims (and 3x the revs, though not simultaneously), and is somewhat more highly strung and fragile to go with. Also got a mystery oil leak from somewhere other than the head gasket, and the carb could do with a tune, along with other non-engine faults... NB you said it burned slower than gasoline, which is what you'd expect for ultra high octane race fuel, but the flames in the slomo footage sure seem to burn out rather faster than the regular gas did, even though it seems likely it's been slowed down even further than before. Is that just because of the increased spark advance, or is something else in play? Anyway, even if the ultimate destruction didn't occur, the footage of the gasket blowout was definitely super cool, and the entire video log of the attempts has been fascinating. I'm sure the turbo attempt will be even better. Keep up the good work :)

YOWZA!...I'm goin' out TONIGHT to buy a Briggs!...that thing was just a little past design spec before the head gasket let loose! As to the leaks, I know for a fact that methanol eats Buna and rubber...I think only Viton seals will hold it. There was prob'ly a good amount of blowby which allowed the methanol at the crankcase seals...valve seals also prob'ly failed...or the crankcase seals just got physically blown out. Your nitro also tends to eat things by oxidation, being that it's the source of extra oxygen that makes for the crackle you hear at the dragstrip.

Jeff Liggett You can only supercharge a carburetted engine.

[@coin666911]

Laurențiu Panait I guess that's true since a turbo is technically classified as a type of supercharger. The only difference between a "supercharger" and a turbo charger is that the "supercharger" is belt driven which creates more low rpm boost (but with parasitic losses), and a turbo super charger gets driven by exhaust fumes at no parasitic losses (but with less boost in low rpm). In the end they both push compressed air through the intake, the engine could care less where the air is coming from, heck you can even just fill a scuba tank with compressed air and plumb it to the intake and it will still will do the same job as a blower.

[@Rem1061]

Nitromethane gives less energy than gas by about 1/2. But you can put almost 8 times as much in with the "standard" amount of air that a cylinder pulls in and get a "good" mix. That ends you up with about a 2.3 times the "Bang" that you can get with gas for a given amount of air. It also runs about 800 deg. F hotter than gas.

[@VetteTTV12]

Oil is probly due to over pressurization of the crank case because of the higher blow by gasses. Can you get new rings for it? If you can you should custom grind them for nitro/boost application to see if it helps. With it being an air cooled engine you should also think about putting a fan near it to help cool it before it seizes up, especially if you're gonna turbo it.

Warped Perception, happy to help. Feel free to bounce any ideas off me. For reference I'm a retired F16/F22 crew chief, prior ford technician, turned mechanical engineer.

[@VetteTTV12]

1320crusier, a blower fan would do a better job at dissipating the heat and less time consuming. Also, the contact area of a tube would be too small to be efficient in square fins. If he had more time and resources he could possibly water cool it with custom fabrication, but it would be a whole new project in of its self.

[@1320crusier]

Its simply the craziest option I could think of. Thats all :). I believe the most efficient way to air cool it would be to duct the air through the fins or to attach some high cfm computer fans to each side to pull or push air through the fins.

[@davebeckley2584]

I didn't find this until now but it's way cool. Do it again but at night, it would be an impressive show. The thing I can't figure out is all the Briggs engines I have are dialed right to the factory specs with fresh gas and while you are able to start this one with one pull, mine won't start even under the power of prayer. Great video!

I wish this guy was the host of the new MythBusters, he reminds me of Adam. Great epiosode dude, looking forward to the turbo .

[@howto2you696]

Jack Gorbachev I agree , the new hosts feel so fake and forced. It feels wrong .

[@WarpedYT]

haha ... thanks man, Appreciate that. not sure if I'm feeling the new show, it feels weird without Adam and Jaime, I like it a little ghetto and grimy anyways. maybe we will do a joint episode one day, science and discovery, that would be interesting.

[@xruckx]

Funny thing is Im watch in them rn the new hosts are 2 guys with 2 skills designing and engineering. Jamie and Adam had it all including the opposite attitudes witch made it all the more entertaining

[@waaaazzzzzaaaa]

it seems that the oil is leaking through the crankcase breather. You can block it, but it's dangerous (the gases within the crankcase can ignite and explose). The best way to counterpass this is to mount a tube form the breather to a "catch can" so the oil flows inside a can so you don't make a mess and the engine will still be able to breath normally

[@HJB._]

Thx 4 your effort to show how it looks in the inside of a combustion-engine - while it runs!

[@rogeraydin908]

BennyTheGreat I realized too!

[@farhanrizqi6440]

great video and thanks for the 4k video!! and by theway how is that engine still alive!?! i wanted it to blow up!

[@StygianBlood]

Having grown up with top fuel dragsters I cringed every time you did the quick short revs after a high rev cuz that's what's more likely to blow your engine

[@WarpedYT]

Hylian Assassin thats what I was hoping for but ... No go. My gut tells me that in the next episode I should be able to get a catastrophic failure. To be honest I want to see Parts flying through the block. But capturing nitromethane burning in the combustion chamber and high-speed is something that I don't think has ever been done before. I looked everywhere on the internet and came up empty-handed, it looked amazing that Snow White burn...

[@StygianBlood]

Warped Perception I know you can get the separate components to mix your own nitro and I'd almost be willing to bet that a mere 50/50 won't get you the catastrophic results......however you can increase it using that 50% as a jumping point and once you get up to that 90 a sustained rev with a quick burp should practically guarantee something dies in spectacular fashion lol......but then again....everything works in theory but not always in practice..... definitely looking forward to the possible results

[@Enthropical_Thunder]

Why do those quick revs kill the engine and not the long full throttle one? Has it something to do with the timing?

[@StygianBlood]

Mandernach Luca nope.....the sustained throttle is all safe it's when you let off then give the throttle a quick bump then let go from what I understand that there's too much of the highly volatile fuel stuck in the engine at too slow an rpm at the point of ignition that it blows up......mind you I don't know if that's exactly it but that's my best guess based on my knowledge

[@Enthropical_Thunder]

I'm just wondering why this is the case. I mean i wonder how there even can be to much fuel-air mixture if these engines are build for max. pressure. Can there be something like to much fuel-air mixture? When i remember right, those things have a roots-compressor or something like that. So there constantly under pressure (Queen reference XD), or not? Well, i don't know enough of these engines but i would love to understand them.

[@dochollowood5763]

17:52 BUSTED ! B&S planned obsolescence head gasket ! A+ for the video

[@johnd9357]

Will you be my father? Lol. In all seriousness, I'd love to know what sort of power that little engine was making on the nitro mix. Would be interesting to see the comparison. Nitro actually has less energy density than gasoline, it's just that you can burn more of it with less air than gasoline which is why dragsters use nitro. Wonder if this Briggs was actually making more power, or just more noise.

[@WarpedYT]

J D well in the next episode I am getting it on the dyno.

[@johnd9357]

Warped Perception awesome!

[@metsu962]

Very awesome stuff! Great camera with the high speed, good fun testing, really intriguing. Subscribed to see more!

[@DavidAndruczyk]

The oil was most likely coming out the breather from the ultra high RPM turning the crankcase oil largely to mist. Too bad you didn't have a tach on it, it sounds like it hit over 8500 RPM.

[@WarpedYT]

LMAO !! love your comment, it was definitely up there in RPM. Next episode I will have all the goodies including but not "limited to" a Tach.

[@djosbun]

[@mike25620]

great video, your production is on point

[@crazypete3759]

I am curious what rpm that engine was running at when you had it WOT on the 50% nitro mix

[@tomstech4390]

Peter Dudas my guess would be a little over 5200 and about 5hp. Which if you think about it would be a 66% jump but it doesn't have any load on it so hard to judge.

[@TonyMinchew131]

Clear head!!?? That is awesome. What a fantastic way to teach combustion.

[@fabio77809]

hello I wanted to know when the next video comes out when the turbo with the nitromethane fuel is mounted, thanks

[@WarpedYT]

fabio bellini we actually start filming tomorrow, we had a bit of a delay because we're making some equipment changes. But we're good to go now for the rest of the year. Thanks for checking in I can't wait for that one is going to be nuts.

[@Chuckiele]

Damn, that was sick, cant wait to see the boost.

[@hudsonja]

I'll admit first off, that my knowledge of four-stroke engines (and combustion engines in general, I guess) is somewhat limited, but does the lack of a load to propel have anything to do with how quickly these engines do fail? I've always heard the more you run an engine that's not under load the worse it is for it, since it is more free to over-rev, since it has nothing to regulate its rate of acceleration.

[@jeremyjohnson8844]

Joe No. Load itself is quite an arbitrary factor, it's the resulting requirement of increased RPM.

[@flaccidego4291]

My dad bought a Briggs & Stratton lawn mower when i was 11. A year later he taught me how to do the lawn. Im 48 now & i still drive to my parents house to cut the grass. Been cutting it for 36 years & still with that same exsct lawn mower. Still starts up 1 pull most of the time. No repairs either. Just oil changes, spark plugs & air filter. Although next spring i gotta new rear wheels for little Bertha

[@traxxasrcfun]

2 things that are crazy in this video. you are standing in front of a fuckin SUPRA and the briggs bottom end could hold that much rpm

[@WarpedYT]

lol.. very true, the supra is 1000 HP BTW
