JoeM 8,101 #2 Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) that guy is awesome and does some good 2nd amendment stuff too. Another cool one is the The Slow Mo Guys Check out this magnetic field experiment. Kind of what goes on in your starter. Edited July 23, 2023 by JoeM 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 9,682 #3 Posted July 23, 2023 Having the best shop teacher in high school that a kid could imagine, he taught me how a carburetor works in our small engine course. Because of him, almost 40 years later I still like to learn and that’s why I watched that video. The slow motion part is awesome! That would be a great addition to any small engine course because it’s not complicated and simple to understand. @Achto Thanks for sharing! 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,226 #4 Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) @c-series don That spot where it transitions from the narrow point to the wide area on the throttle side is where your air in the fuel mix starts the sweating phenomenon . Narrow point is high pressure and when it expands the pressure drops it cools and may condense. Add in the vacuum of the engine and you can get a very cold manifold Refrigeration works the same way. Hot liquid refrigerant passes through a point of expansion and gets very cold Edited July 23, 2023 by squonk 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
