I'm retired now but before I own'd a car workshop. The craziest thing we ever did was to fill a car inner tube with oxygen and acetylene then placed it on top of a burning oily rag. It took less than a minuet before it exploded. It was so loud we all crapped ourselves. Not satisfied with that we then filled a wagon inner tube and did the same. It created such a shock wave that it blew out the window nearest us. Unfortunately less than 10 minuets later the police turned up after receiving a phone call that we had exploded a bomb. Although we explained what we had done we were removed from the building while they searched the premises. They didn't find anything suspicious of course but they took me back to the station to write out a statement. Nothing came of it but they threatened to arrest me if I did it again. It might sound over the top but I can't exaggerate just how loud the bang was. However you are the craziest bunch I've come across :)

Try leaning out the mix on the carburetor, and running it again. Also, try it with a fuel injected motor to see the difference.

[@jimdavis1576]

[@andrewvoigt1133]

co2 is already completely combusted and is an inert gas serving only to absorb heat and expand, helping to push the cylinder. It does however displace O2 when used in a carburetor and the lack will definitely cause an over rich burn. I don't think it would do that with an injector as pressure is maintained. locking the CO2 into solution allowing O2 a full measure and only very slightly displacing the fuel.

REgarding the brake fluid... immediately catastrophic.

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

Oil is made to resist cavitation, because the air bubbles in oil are possible "dry spots" where metal can meet metal instead of the small film of oil being in between and protecting against wear. Brake fluid is made in a way to resist it as well because air in the brake system can be compressed easier then the fluid, thus allowing your pedal to move further to the floor. Air bubbles in the coolant system, cause over heating because air can be heated faster then the water-coolant/antifreeze mixture can. Also it cannot exchange heat as well as the fluid with the fins of the radiator. Hence why air only cooled engines all but died out. Even on motor cycles and such.

[@crisnmaryfam7344]
