- How important is it to ensure an engine is getting clean air? In this video, you'll see first hand the damage that can be caused by dirt getting into the engine through the air intake. The engine gets disassembled at the end of this video for a look at the damage.

Now, correct me if I’m wrong, but I think, I mean I’m just putting it out there, but I think you may have voided the warranty, when you cut the engine in half.
I just looked at my lawnmowers engine warranty and it doesn't say anything about cutting it in half. So I think he's all good.

Video idea:
Effects of running a cold engine hard immediately after starting it.
Yea if he could find an old car for cheap and just blow it up like that itd be dope
If it's cold enough out it will cold seize
I dont think it'll show much, this causes damage in the long run rather than after a few runs. Engine problems usually develop later on in their life when they've been run cold and hard a lot
@@Jake_Hynds maybe if it's running very watered down antifreeze (or straight water...amazingly, some people try). We had a few -40°F mornings here last winter, and my truck (2000 Ford 6.8l V10) only struggled to circulate the P/S fluid for a few seconds, causing it to stall once. It was running fresh 5w20 Amsoil Signature, and about 3 year old antifreeze.
@@joer5057 idk I only know of my old skidoo pretty long time ago I was young and just fired up my sled -30 degrees celcius == -22f
Fired it up it wasn't running to or idling very nice so just jumped on it and gave her tits lol .... bad idea as it cold seized in one cylinder.. didn't really seize but blew one cylinder and my dads freind help me rebuild it and knew exactly what I did and why it blew as you can tell by the metal..
5:57 All those mowers in the background thinking to themselves 'Oh S#1t! One of US is next!!!'
On a positive note, sand is great at removing carbon build up :)
lol. Great point!
Water does a better job. Spray it through the carb while engine is working hard.
@@davidelliott5843 actually that works even better if you run antifreeze and vinegar with it
@@shanepurcell8376 seriously?
@Mexican HillBilly Jew sweet name
I would like to see you do this test again, but instead of dispensing the dirt directly down the carb with a spoon, throw it into a shop fan that's in front of the engine so the engine sucks in a more real-world dirty air. I'm curious if the dirt covering the cooling fins will change the engine's mode of failure, or if itt'l last a little longer that way.
Obviously itt'l still die, that's a given.
I'd also like to see you get a tach hooked up to one of these engines, bypass the governor, and show us just how fast these things can turn until they go Kerbal on us. I'm betting somewhere around 5500-6000RPM is when the rod lets go.
TestECull iget your post... 8000 is possible with mods... i think the channel mr midshipman modified a predator engine this way (predator= honda clone) its done for racing though....
I agree with this. I'd like to see the test repeated, but as a bunch of dirt and sand dispersed in a "cloud" such as by a fan, which would better simulate how it would typically happen in the real world. Probably won't straight out kill the engine, but even a loss of 5-10 PSI would be a fascinating test result and very informative for those who run engines of any kind without a filter.
This is a terrific idea! Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
I wanted to give you moar thumbs up for a Kerbal reference, but have moar boosters instead... Or struts... Your choice! :P
Good idea. If you wanna keep the mess semi contained, maybe set up the mower and fan inside an enclosed space... Airflow at the top to circulate oxygen, but fans around to create a cyclone of dust and dirt within the space.
richfiles, Great suggestions! Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
I literally laughed out loud when you started pouring sand into the engine! Wow that was awesome!!!

You should do an air filter test! Different brands of air filters to show different amounts of damage, airflow, horsepower gain, etc. would be super neat and useful for my vehicles!
Great suggestion! Thank you.
and test pre filter foam pad placed in front of the filter. who has tried it ?
Put gasoline were the oil goes. Like if you wanna see that
Thanks for the recommendation.
@@ProjectFarm yah I wanna see if the gas will act as a lubricant or will it catch on fire
i think if he puts in DIESEL, it could be lubricate a bit! worth a test!
One of my grandkids did that to my mower when they went to do me a favor and mow the yard for me... luckily I caught it before I started my mower... looked like chocolate milk instead of oil.

Exactly my thoughts and that sand was too rough. He should have took sand dust instead
Not necessarily ; what about those wanting to take their ATV on the beach? If the carb/intake had no filter, that's exactly the type of sand that would go through the engine. *winces*

I recently changed the air filter on my 2020 Toyota Camry LE , four cyclinder 2.5 liter engine . I had a Purolatoir filter and had sprayed it with PuraClean Filter Spray , allowed to dry and installed . It is used for furnance filters to attract / catch more dirt . I had contacted the company and asked about using it on a vehicle's air filter , they said sure . The filter had been in for 3 months and I compared it to a new one . Definitely a big difference and changed this time to a WIX , made in South Korea . Very noticeable improvement in acceleration and smoothness . I had usually left air filters in for 6 months , but as you said they are to collect / stop dirt from getting into the engine . So now to replace filter 4 times a year at a cost of $120.00 .
Thanks for sharing.
I would linke to see if "Engine Restore" oil can Help at this point of massive destruction.
This is meant to be seriously!!
Unhook the governor and get a tack to see how high you can rev a mower engine
I want to see this
I’d guess this engine can tolerate a lot of crap due to the low RPM, but yeah I’d like to see a 6500RPM mower for giggles!
Dang, that was painful to watch that first spoonful go in, though it poised an interesting thought;
When you finally get up to the Pearly Gates, let's hope there's not a line of destroyed engines waiting for you expecting an explanation!
lol.
I will never get rid of my air filter on my vehicle. Of that took 15 minutes and my engine is much bigger it will take longer but that is much more damage that will be caused by the dirt that gets into my engine. I really appreciate what you do.
Thanks!
Miss these engine tests. It's what got you so many subscribers, should bring them back.
Thanks for the constructive feedback.
I'd like to see oil that is much too thick or much too thin. Also oil way too full and close to empty.
802 Garage, These are absolutely terrific ideas! Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
No problem. Thanks as always for the replies. The channel is genius so far.
802 Garage I've got a car engine that's been run with the oil light on (low oil). Really nice and loud with heaps of rod knock. Maybe I should make a video of it :-P
XD yep the oil light usually means basically 0 oil pressure. :P
It's done for.
802 Garage Of course lol. It was my house mates car and was driven for many kms like that. Then it "started to make this funny noise". I might dismantle it all and make furniture out of it
Your mower’s camber doesn’t look right
lol. It's a drift mower!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That thing was a sad excuse of a mower before this test even began. Lol
To show the power of FLEX SEAL, I sawed this ENGINE in half!!!
Now it’s time to use the best of all the products you’ve tested to repair it.
Another reason to change oil frequently if youlive on dusty rural roads. GOOD JOB!
Another test I would LOVE to see is for you to overheat the engine severely by disabling the engine's cooling system perhaps by cutting the flywheel fins off to simulate a coolant loss. I predict severe ring and cylinder wall damage and maybe a warped head.
This is another GREAT idea! Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
diy computer guy. I can tell you from the days I used to cut lawns for people when I was a kid air cools b &s engines are tough I over heated my mower from cutting deep grass at wot (I had a manual throttle no Governor for more power) once it cooled it fired back up they are pretty under stressed engines.
A DIY Computer Guy use a tecumseh, they blow up with a good cooling system lol happened a few times to me
1985Kx, I have a mower with a tecumseh that would be great for this test! Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
fill the fins with a mouse nest, is enough to over heat the engine, it might expand the head enough for the hardend seats to drop out, stopping the engine
Did you know that if you put a little bit of dirt in your engine overtime it will grow a tolerance for bigger dirt
This is just some good common sense.
tyvm for answering the question about power increase without air filters at the very beginning. You'd be surprised how many channels cant answer the question without rambling on well away from the question. thx again.
You are welcome!
Incredible the amount of precision in this kind of piece of equipement like the combustion chamber!

Lance, great suggestion! Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
White lightning or MD 20-20 as well. Maybe one these will clean an engine better than Seafoam? If nothing else, the traffic behind you will enjoy the fragarence from the tailpipe! Just as long as a Cop is not behind you!
Or try to run a engine on 100% seafoam

Naah... not at all wastefull. There are places, as romania, for example, where there is so much dirt and dust on the roads, and not only...where air filter and fuel filter are better done at half the advertised change intervals, than any other place. I come from romania, live in austria, and have to say : if you care about your pocket/ wallet, do take care of when you change oil and fuel filters, depending of place, and conditions you might drive in, than suggestions from mannufacturers. Keep up the good work. I see you are a straight up man. I appreciate that. God speed friend. God speed.

Spoon feeding the engine 🍴...next time give it a drink too lol
I feel the same!
Many years ago (1974) I was in the Army. I had just purchased a brand new Chev Nova, which I drove to an Air Force base in Texas where A I attended a tech school (all branches of service attended some of these schools. ) I arrived there in July, and it hadn't rained in that area since May. Naturally, this dryness meant lots of dry sand and dust. When I treated my new car to its first oil change, I checked the ar filter. Once the cover was off, exposing what was inside, I CAREFULLY removed the housing and cleaned it thoroughly. Naturally, I replaced the filter as well.
The old paper filter weighed almost 3 pounds after it had been removed from the housing and some of the loose dirt had fallen off. I wouldn't have imagined that much dust would be trapped there, and I really didn't know how the engine was running with so much air flow blocked. Imagine what that much grit would have done without a filter in place.

What about hydro-locking an engine? Having the engine run at med to high rpm and pouring water into the carb. I had a 2.2L GMC Sonoma break 2 rods when it sucked water into the enigine.
Nathan, Great suggestion! This is a real-world possibility as you experienced! Thanks for watching the video and the great suggestion!
I don't think it gonna break a rod on a mower as the blade has not enough inertia to do this work
I've seens some engines blow the top of when they sucked in water.
That would be interesting :)

I think that a mower's engine will take quite a bit to get damaged from hydrolocking.

2) Throttling up causes sputtering...
3) Engaging into gear while remaining still increases the sputtering and causes truck to jitter...
4) Throttling up to move forward increases sputtering and vehicle jittering...
5) Increased throttle increases sputtering and jittering emensely...
(The jitter Feels similar to a slightly out of balance clothes washer while rotating at substantial speed)
6) ZERO Smoke at engine & tailpipe...

You just BUSTED the MYTH of sandblasting the combustion chamber clean while the engine is running.
Thanks for sharing.
1.5 million views. I think that's worth sacrificing a small engine for.
Thank you
Not sure I feel this was accurately tested. I understand it is somewhat scaled down. But comparing such a small cylinder with a teaspoon of dirt seems like throwing a cup of dirt into a cars intake. That and it's literally pouring in, not really broken up into the air or tossed around an air box. Maybe put same mix into paint sprayer, make a faux airbox. And re-test. The amount of wear you put on the engine was just out scale in my opinion. If a full size engine was exposed to the amount dumped into the mower it would take quite a while to amount to that, there would likely have been an oil change or additives added at some point depending on the owner. My two cents, have a good one
Scott, Great point! Thanks for watching the and commenting!
Scott Donaldson i was thinking the same thing. It's a great video, BTW, but not very realistic in terms of scale. Much more sand than a car engine would take in at a time, and much too small of a cylinder to scale to a car engine … wonder what would happen if you took the same test to say, a motorcycle engine or something.
Scott Donaldson you obviously dont live down a 15 mile dirt road like me. Air filter is dirty as hell every 1000 miles. To me. This is a very accurate test.
Tzorb so sorry, forgot how many of the general public live down a 15 mile dirt road.
