Inside An Engine At 1000 RPM



Strapped this single cylinder engine to an electric table grinder, not only to add tension to the belt, but for my own amusement! This motor is rated at 1500 PRM and due to the pulley's "gear" reduction, rotates the engine at a cold idle speed (1000 PRM) This shows how fast everything is happening inside your engine as you sit at a red light, I will always wonder how engines can withstand such speeds.

This motor-driven grinder from a lady down the street and you know  the belt was really loose and it's  cracking but it was free so I took it  so I strapped an engine onto it for not  only my own amusement but to add tension  to the belt so now I'm going to get this  thing going and show you the engine  working and correspond and corresponding  with the rest of the mechanism now this  electric motor is capable of  rpms  as stated on the side there but using  this old tachometer that I found out that  the engine itself is only going at a  thousand rpms so basically it's a fast  idle so that's what you're going to get  anyways okay.

 I'll show you what's up and  yes there's oil in this bad boy to keep  it all lubricated and going as you can  tell I had to put some gasket maker  because it was leaking a little bit but  other than that looks cool and thumbs up  for the the gold valve springs that I  painted there all right  you  there you have it now I'm going to  remove the head and you're gonna go look  at how fast the Pistons moving in there  hopefully it doesn't spray oil all over  the place though because I don't call  any of the rings on the piston so it  moves more freely alright so I removed  the cylinder head and the various other  parts to expose the piston so now I'm  going to do that same test same air pm's  mm and you'll get to see the piston  inside there as it's moving up and down.

There's probably going to be oil  everywhere because as I stated earlier I  don't have the rings on the piston so it  can move more freely but yeah alright  then inside an engine and the thousand  rpms number two  there you have it as what happens inside  your engine as long as it's on it's  insane isn't that sometimes I'm amazed  they keep themselves together especially  at higher rpms all right well there you  have it that's my little mechanism there  I think it's pretty cool and it's great  for sharpening lawn mower blades so I'm  not complaining all right peace
