The carb is from a 50cc leaf blower, and it looks identical to a weed whacker one, so hopefully it will be fine, but I’m still not getting fuel through the carb for some reason.
I’m currently working on my next video, but I actually used a quarter inch bolt for the wrist pin and I made the connecting rod stronger and a little sneak peek, it doesn’t break! 🤫
@@aroundtheyardfunhaving the hose coming out the bottom of the tank instead of the top will also probably help but if the carb is not gravity fed then it doesn't matter where the tank is at?
@@aroundtheyardfunsmall fuel tank off Amazon but if the carb isn't gravity fed it doesn't matter where the fuel tank is at or if it's coming out the top
Cause I cannot get to the intake, the way I designed the engine is that the carburetor is mounted on the crank case, and the cylinder housing has a transfer port that goes up to the intake port, so if I spray starting fluid into the carburetor, it’ll just go to the bottom of the crank case. And my crank case has a small leak that I need to fix, so it would never make it to the intake port. Thanks for watching!
@@james10739 yeah that’s kind of what I was thinking, because the crank case has a small leak when the piston goes up and down it’s not drawing fuel in and then it’s not pressurizing it because it’s just leaking out. I’m going to fix this in the near future, with some O-rings on the crankshaft, but I have to wait for them to arrive. Also, something is wrong with the carburetor because it’s not letting fuel through.

That first minute is some straight caveman shit
Oh you know😂
If that carb is off a weed whacker it has built in diaphragm which should pull fuel. Cool build.

for the connecting rods you should design them to have a bolt run threw the center to have a nut on the bottom.

duuude, let's goo, mad props good work :)
thanks man!!
for the wrist pin i used a 6mm bolt I cut the head of and filed a line for a flat screwdriver works pretty well
That’s a good idea, I look and see what I have for bolts!
Did you get your engine running?
@@aroundtheyardfun narh not yet having some issues with my printer and I'm printing the air version from camden bowen
@@meromere8339 oh, that’s cool, are you going to upload it to TH-cam? I would love to see that!
It fired🎉
Spray your starter fluid into your carburetor
I know, but the issue is that I wasn’t getting crank case pressure, so spraying starter fluid in there wouldn’t do anything.
maybe you could also preoiled every parts
I did oil the piston, con rod, and wrist pin. I should have oiled the crank, but it seems to be ok. Thanks for watching!
Keep the fuel tank above the carburetor unless you have a fuel pump
wait, if the fuel tank is not above the carb will it not get fuel? If so, that will be a pretty quick fix. thank you for watching!

@@neuae0822 what should I use as a fuel tank then? I currently don’t have the capabilities to drill through the glass without potentially breaking it.
im not sure but i think these carbs have a inbuild puls pump but I'm not sure how good it is

I assume the exhaust valve is open but why not spray the starting fluid in the intake

@@aroundtheyardfun what burns I really kinda a vapor so it should be fine and if it has a leak I can't imagine the carb is working properly

do you have plans on releasing the files?
Yes, I don’t know when but I will release the files.
Thanks for watching!
