that's super fancy! good job. might i offer a simpler solution? as a beekeeper wood chips, available from pet shops, cedar chips for hamster pens, make tons of smoke. Several handfulls of cedar chips, ignited will produce coals that will produce loads of smoke when the lid is attached to can.
Nice building job but never said what you use material to make it smoke like mineral oil?? And you never showed it smoking wow toooooooo much details on evaporation system thanks 👎
The throttle body should already be in the close position since the engine is off. You could plug the line from the airbox if you also wanted to check between mass air sensor and plate.
Maybe a little less exposition on subjects that really have nothing to do with the task at hand & a lot more specifics as to the materials, the procedure, the actual numbers (I.e., Ohms needed, the length of the burn wire [and its specific type,] PSIs needed for optimal output, etc....) I found myself fast forwarding/reversing to find actual helpful info to the point of frustration- so much so I felt that I needed to make a comment regarding the issue. There's no need at all for this to be a two-part video tutorial. With that said, when on task, the presentation was good. Decently shot and narration was easy to hear and understand. 2.5* of 5*
Recording videos on an airplane is an interesting thing to do. Apart from being able to remember trips that have been made, passengers can also tell friends on social media about the beauty of the trip they took.
At out all I have seen, yours was the best, like your design, but thinking a fish tank air pump might be just the thing, low pressure, and constant air supply, honestly you can tell, you thought this all out, excellent tutorial
It's not that bad, a few drill bits and wrenches. The rest you can pick up from your local hardware store. Throw the numbers into a calculator and you're set
You may have an egr leak, bad rings or burnt valve if you're getting intake smoke out of the exhaust...unless you have serious valve overlap i guess..👍
Be sure to remove the one way valve from the brake booster or the smoke won't be able to get into the booster.....if yoi don't, you'd still never know if the booster is leaking...lol🤣👍
this is brilliant , good work. only thing i would've done different is wire in a on/off button so you can make smoke on demand as well as stop when not needed...
one day someone will try this and blow their battery to kingdom come. Hook the negative lead to a ground on the engine. I've seen 2 batteries blow up, it isn't pretty! Also speed things along. I watched your videos in 1.75 speed and still jumped ahead till you got to the point.
The crack in your header is the cause of the lean condition. Just watched your video 2 years after. The O2 sensor can't get a true reading of the exhaust because air is suck in thru that crack at higher RPMs.
Great video and nice work on the smoker. If you want to know the details of calculating the nichrome wire length, the link below will allow you to do that. Using it you find: Wire Length = 36" Wire gauge = 22 Temperature Produced = 762f Resistance of Wire = 1.9776 ohms Current = 6.072 amps Voltage = 12.00 volts www.easycalculation.com/engineering/electrical/nichrome-wire-calculator.php
Watched all three videos. Great job building that smoker. I built the one using the soldering iron, a little simper but not nearly as nice or as effective as yours, however I did find my exhaust leak. I think I am going to build one like yours just because it works so much better. Thanks for all the detail. Great videos.
