FIRST MPG Test- Diesel OMEGA CAR - Video 2 of 3 

3 gallons of diesel should cost $6 with a good president AND I can fill that in 20 seconds. Your move.

@@CaseyPutschwell played good sir.

@@CaseyPutsch 20 seconds is the key!!! 👍

@@CaseyPutsch 1) Diesel vehicles require lots of maintenance. 3) Need stations that sell diesel 3) Electricity is everywhere, can charge anywhere, even from the sun and off grid.

@@MossMini with all due respect I live in south Florida I can travel down the 75 and there are diesel stations at every exit. There are Tesla charging stations but you must wait for your car to charge. This car as it stands will take you 500 miles on one tank. I’ll say this unless Elon musk or the Tesla owners chip in to put charging stations everywhere you are gonna have trouble convincing the average American to pay more on taxes to build the infrastructure for the cars to work seamlessly. I also don’t understand the idea of making putting charger underneath the highways( so the cars can charge while driving) and the cars become self driving because that just sounds like a train to me. It just seems like a lot of work to completely build This new way of transportation, then upgrading the current. I’m not being argumentative I’m just saying what I think. If I’m wrong tell me. I should also say the idea of mining for oil comparative to lithium mines both is digging into the ground to get minerals to run the vehicles. Also used electric cars are the hardest vehicles to sell. Selling new Teslas sure but I already know that any used electric car is almost impossible to sell.

Accurate

Definitely Gran Turismo energy right here. Well Gran Turismo 3 and 4

El Niño

:)

Thanks and I hope you do!!

B sport did this with his 1.9 (2006?) Passat Wagon ("moon" discs, blocked the upper colling vents...) he did ~4l/100km on highway doing 80+ mph

I saw that video too lol

Have 4 VW Golf 99-03 TDI w/ stage 1 tune alone no parts 57mpg no matter how you drive. Top speed around 160 Family wagons.

Check out Julian Edgar, he's an engineer who's got a few vids on aerodynamic modification for downforce and for efficiency.

How hard would it be to reproduce this car? Also curious as to what you would do differently if you were to build another one(maybe something you are planing to tackle in a future video) Always loved the idea behind this car, so thank you for making more videos on it.

Easy and just make it better. I made this over 10 years ago with little resources. I can do better now.

Loving the Omega car videos! Keep it up!

More to come

​@@CaseyPutschI totally support this and you're correct about life getting in the way of good things like this car. I have so many things in my head that need to be patented and tested but working all week and building my own race cars in the spare time puts projects like this on the shelf. I hope you don't "disappear" because people in the past getting 120mpg have been known to disappear.

Us or uk mpg?

@@migueldenboer5186 metric using google to convert...

@@migueldenboer5186safe to assume UK because ford didn’t sell a diesel fiesta in the US and the rest of the world uses L/100km. 100mpg US = 120 mpg UK

Speaking in mph not KPL

@@Ryan-uz2cr To be clear. I've travelled 1350km with one full tank, no reserve or 40 Litres, or around 3 L/100 Km, with speeds around 70km/h to 80km/h in highway road with inclines. With normal driving that go from 100km/h to 180km/h, I get 4.7L/100km

Yup

Is what it is because of one thing. Money.

​@@ryurc3033don't forget control

Yes!

same, 1ton cars are good

Tomorrow at 10am baby!!

It's important to remember that Diesel engines can be adapted to use dozens of different fuels such as methanol, maybe ethanol, kerosene, all sorts of oils even cooking oil without being converted to Diesel, DME, many other fuels if used as a dual fuel setup, ...

@@vitordelima also bear in mind that the "diesel" as we know it is just the version that survived as it was the simplest to build. theres quite an interesting lineage that led to its final form as we know it... the hotbulb is old and dead... too hard to control under varying load... but we now have nice high temperature, rapid heating glowplugs that can be very easily ran on PWM, for instance... allows for a lighter, lower compression design with lower NOS emissions but still retains the auto-ignition, with constant pressure type expansion phase. auto-ignition has the benefit of being able to run extremely lean... thats why diesel is so good on an idle. only needs enough fuel to kick it over the cycle, petrol has to run rich to get reliable ignition. some ideas such as brayton lacked metals, and devices such as turbo chargers... ICE is far from dead, but its about time some of the bigger companies went back and checked out previously considered "obsolete" ideas if they want to progress... the "otto cycle" is dead... or should be.

@@paradiselost9946 Interesting. There are dozens of other potential improvements such as mixing water with the diesel or kerosene as a emulsion, semi-adiabatic pistons, different configurations for the pistons including opposing pistons, alternatives for the crankshafts, different methods for valve control, ... despite all the hype their efficiency is still better than most fuel cells, they can be used in gensets for electric vehicles while batteries are still terrible and they have reasonable costs when dealing with a lot of power and energy, which modern technologies don't (or even can't be used sometimes).

@g8autox; ignorant fool !! :-o IQT/CIA has been partner within biG/alphBtI since its beginning along with fb/met,tw/x,cisco,intel,ms,appl,qulcm,brdcm,at&t,palantirTch,smsng,amd,smic,et al !!

I was thinking the same thing. Shame people probably won't see it. No politics here to get negative comments, the algorithm won't push that right now. If they are listening.... .its Only a " conspiracy theory" that small efficient, good looking cars aren't happening specifically because of government regulations........ahem......... who am i kidding, im probably already on a list.

Sorry what? I was busy dodging heart attack pew pew ice.

@@CaseyPutsch What "heart attack" were You "dodging " Casey ?! Do You have some health issues ?

​@@newtonfirefly3584search up CIA heart attack gun

Yes!

Thank you!!

I noticed that too. Sounded solid

I was also impressed by that. Well done. How well the doors open and shut is about as important as anything.

Yeah! I noticed that, too! Door closed... I just thought, oh yeah, that sounds SOLID. On an experimental thing like this, I would not criticize if he actually had to push the thing closed. Instead... wow, nice! This is not just some funky and rough "proof of concept" test mule thing!

That's what I heard also

You’re welcome and I hope you do! You’ll love tomorrow’s video!

Thank you kindly. Is this Doug?

@@CaseyPutsch Bob is the name. As someone who fell in love with cars as a toddler, I truly appreciate your talents and love of cars and your doing good for the young, the US, and the world.

Yuuuup

Send me an email. I’d be honored.

Thank you!

Thank you! I think we ALL would!

@@CaseyPutsch I would make one.

Thanks!

More to come and thank you!

Thank you. Come back tomorrow at 10!

@@CaseyPutsch I will definitely watch the video tomorrow, but I have to work until noon.

Tomorrow at 10!

@@CaseyPutsch I will definitely be watching!

Thank you kindly

More to come!

Thank you! I’ll keep going!

Thank you thank you!

Thanks!

More to come! I will!

So you admit over regulation is a large part of the problem?

If under 100,000 cars produced it does not need to meet crash standards

Thank you

Thanks!

Thank you! More to come

Thank you!

Shhhhh…. :)

@@CaseyPutsch you should see about bringing the car to the Academy of Art University's Auto Museum for a presentation! I personally know a lot of people there that would love to see it!

Maybe someday!

Thanks!

;)

@@CaseyPutsch put some LED police strobe lights on it and police stickers that’ll help ya slip by them Yogis. I’m sure it’ll camouflage it just fine. 🥸 and don’t forget to dress the part.

More to come!

It’s the EV industry and the left that will want me to go away right now….

@@CaseyPutschof course🙄 we want more!

Thank you

Thanks! You'll like tomorrow's video.

Yup!

A good idea. I have some other ones.

@@CaseyPutsch well you have been an inspiration for me. I'll start looking into how to make a car similar to the omega car

Another idea would be to challenge other RU-vidrs to beat your car. Get a movement going.

@@kyleolin3566 Only if WhistlinDiesel shows up for the series finale and "tests" them all 🤣

And mine is fast…

For sure!

I already do for front and rear actually! Good call.

Tomorrow at 10

:) More to come!

Thank you kindly. I’m still swinging!

Those are great numbers!

There are many ways to make one recyclable
