While figuring out which supercharging method should I use, I always had the curiosity to know why this particular engine spits so much unburned fuel from the exhaust and the inlet as well. The siplest thought was valve leakage. There's no other way so much fuel can escape both from the inlet and outlet of the combustion chamber. I decided to use the lapping method which is used on full sized engines. In my case I used polishing compound (thicker one) instead of the actual paste that is used for this purpose as it's too thick and harsh for these tiny valves. The result speak for itself. I was never able to rev the engine past 11,000rpm, while now it revs happily almost to 16,000rpm. I still cannot believe that by simply polishing the valves we can have so dramatic changes in the performance of this little engine. Probaply after all the disassembly and assembly process, I accidentally fix the real problem.
About the supercharger. As you can see on the video, it's pretty much impossible to have any gains from an engine that barely works right. I'm surprised though that the blow through setup worked better. As I've said 2 years ago, a positive displacement supercharger would work perfectly fine.
Model engine companies like O.S have released in the past supercharged four stroke single cylinder engines with a roots type supercharger (O.S FS120 supercharged). This alone gives me hope that I will make it work.

Well at this scale a small imperfection in manufacturing is very unforgiving. On an LS3 these flaws would lose maybe 5 to 10 HP over the stock 430, but on this, for like 1 HP it could stand to lose perhaps a quarter HP or so at the worst. So for an LS being a full size motor, that's between 1 to 2 percent power loss, but on this tiny motor that's a 25 percent loss in power. And with so much air flowing between the valves and the valve seats at 12k RPM before the lapping, it was losing a lot of potential power especially since its rated to reach 16k RPM (it is a Toyan L200). So with that defect fixed and even made better than stock, it likely makes somewhere around 1.25 HP without the supercharger and perhaps 3 or more with the supercharger once the AFR is tuned right with the 10 to 1 pulley.

@@jacobcredle4807 Yes the laser is further out the second time, but the engine is revving noticeably higher, by the sound pitch it's making. I don't really know much about this kind of laser tachometer, as I've never used one, but if it counts revolutions, it should not matter how far out he checked it. The flywheel/pulley is spinning the same RPM along it's entire radius. It's the pulley speed that changes along it's radius, as the further from the centre, the further it needs to move for the same RPM. So provided the tachometer can somehow know when a complete revolution has been made, it shouldn't matter where the reading was taken. If it was a tachometer which works out the revolutions by measuring speed at a certain point on the radius, then it would matter. Like I said, I don't know how this type of tachometer works, usually he uses a tachometer which works by using a piece of reflective tape that reflects the laser, so allowing the tacho to count a revolution. I didn't see him put the tape on this time. Either it's a new type of laser tacho, or he didn't film the application of the tape.

If boost drops it'll probably because the intake valves are exessively restrictive.

@EllaBananas
@EllaBananas 3 роки тому
What was going on there sounded a lot like a vacuum leak to me than a tuning issue. Or maybe some weird interaction between the carb and the supercharger causing an odd vacuum signal. Using an elbow between the carb and the supercharger might not have been the best plan. the more complicated the path between the carb and the engines vacuum the more wonky things get. I once ran what I thought was a pretty simple routing of a flexible (but very stiff) tube between the carb and the engine of my two stroke, and found the engine was virtually untunable. it always ran like trash. Then I eliminated the tube and mounted it as direct as possible, instantly found the right jet, and now it runs flawlessly. And yes I realize this is a 4 stroke of sorts, but these principals do still apply. A carb is a carb. (at least when it comes to 2 and 4 strokes-)

I think fuel is getting somewhere in your supercharger system, and tgan fuel gets clogged up at one place and than it gets realeased so it gets more fuel in different times. Thats why it doesnt run smoothly

The power increases slowy or no power increased, reason of the existence of Intercoolers doesn't matter its supercharger, turbo or centrifugal turbo. In case of supercharged engines the cooling is down to the compressor before enters the engine, it's watercooled by a second radiator as intercooler, this also applies in centrifugal turbos used commonly in bikes.

I've always heard draw-through setups are a bit problematic because in the case of unevaporated fuel in the intake (if you run the engine too rich), the droplets could damage the spinning compressor and with those high rotationnal speeds, damage the blades, Is that true?
@jakehartung3655
@jakehartung3655 3 роки тому
With a prop/turbine spinning that fast I would assume that could be problematic at a certain RPM, how do jet planes turbines deal with rain?
@centralintelligenceagency9003
@centralintelligenceagency9003 3 роки тому
It's true that draw through carbs are problematic, but it is because the centrifugal forces separate the fuel droplets from the charge air.

im pretty sure the idle is weird because of supercharger surging
@AutoBodyEverything
@AutoBodyEverything 3 роки тому
turbo surge is when it is trying to force air into the engine but the engine cannot accept any more air which causes the forced air thats being delivered to make its way back into the turbo's outlet and that is what makes that stustustu sound. theres no way the turbo is maxing out at idle. The idle is inconsistent because there are only two pistons so in between combustion cycles between the two cylinders there are no other pistons moving up and down to keep a steady delivery of air flow to keep the turbo spinning at a steady rate which at that point the whole cycle repeats itself.

Keep up the awesome work!! So close to the Holy Grail so don't give up. Try finding an oil damped gauge cuz what is killing the gauge is needle oscillations ( it's moving way too fast). Years ago I ran across a book dealing with artificial boost for internal combustion engine design when I was playing around with turbo design for my bikes trying to eliminate most of the turbo lag. If you can find it, or something similar, that may help. Just keep at it cuz it is fascinating to watch you work. You have a talent that most don't. Can't wait to see you begin porting and stroking it (hint, hint).

I absolutely love this project! If it were me personally, I’d go back to blow through, keep your current pulley ratio to spin it fast enough, and run your fuel pressure tap from the intake tube between the blower and the carb. That way it should increase fuel pressure on a 1:1 ratio to boost pressure. You may also find that you need a stiffer valve spring. Even with such low boost, there’s still a good possibility that it’s blowing the valve off the seat and making it run erratic. Please don’t give up on it yet!

to prevent the gauge from being damaged and giving erratic readings ..... us a long length of pipe between the manifold and the gauge.... at the manifold end place a restriction in the pipe, a bush with a 0.1mm hole in it, this will damp the response of the gauge and give the gauge a longer life span .. nice work... cool project

Awesome video, quick side note about the pressure gauges you were using. They made fluid-filled gauges that prevent the needle from jumping everywhere under fast changing conditions (and helps them not become stuck as a result) as with the slight resistance of the fluid, it makes the needle show the 'average' pressure compared to the 'instantaneous' pressure.
@GulliJ

I'm was and will never being bored see your tests and research! Don't hesitate to continue In this case due to exhaust smoke I could say the fuel is clearly not normally carrying to engine. The engine have it in excess when you open throttle and compressor puzch the "heavy" oil+fuel to engine. If methanol is easy to transport on the air of your supercharger, oil that's take part of fuel could not be follow a such long tubing before engine I think your problem is here. Solution is hard but probably you need to separate air throttle and fuel Install a fuel sprayer as near as possible to valve and a simple air carb where you want.
