"Faint ticking noise" just means there's no hole in the block yet.
Ohhhhh... Not always. XD
1:55 It's subtle, a slight ticking noise...
I thought a jack hammer is quieter
Drove a car once after it broke a rod and sent it through the block. Was better than pushing it into and out of and then back into the shop. |
Had to drive it back in when the adjuster showed up. That time, there was no oil in the engine because the pan was off, but meh... rod through the block.
Mazdaspeed 6. It shook like a Harley with only 3 pistons attached to the crankshaft.
@@manbunmyname5866 I’ve owned a few cars over the years which ended up making a “faint ticking noise”! The fact they were making any noise meant they were still running so to fix the problem I turned up the music. 🤣
I love that you just own your mistakes. And not only learn from them, but literally point them out for everyone else too. I can't wait to see what you do with the S600 to bring it back to life.
Kawasaki H2 Engine please!
Acknowledging & learning from your mistakes is one of the key parts of engineering... reality can be *very* humbling to an engineer; you can't fool yourself for very long (when an engine explodes, for example) so in the end it's just easiest to be cheerful & own your mistakes with good grace.
AHAHAHAHA!!
No.
It's the classic "win or learn - never a fail", so here we have a great learning experience 😁
..but on a side note - did he not mention this could happen in an earlier video with similar wording "it will probably be fine?" - so he was already aware this could happen 🤔😄
@@masterswish3355 Hayabusa ?
2:00 I put my volume really high to hear that slight ticking noise. Now I can here slightly ringin noise too...
Haha, says 'Subtle'. Yeah right! I got my phone near my ear!
2:00 So subtle that it takes a really well trained ear to notice.
Just the rods quietly knocking on the cases to let you know they're gonna leave soon.
Ignore the "slight ticking noise" for now, it's not a really a problem until it stops..... 🙃
Its just a "Slight Noise" afterall!
It's called the time bomb - tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, BOOM!!!
It generally gets progressively louder, then really quiet, but then it starts vibrating like a Harley.
This dude will do literally anything to keep from having to finish the Jag... 😂 Love the content!
Insert a monty python, "get on with it" intermission.
Always good to see air-quote Matt. Also, this is a great "opportunity" to update the car.
Considering how you absolutely never get distracted by new and exciting projects ever, I'm expecting a three part series on dry sumps and why you're making your own while the Jaguar has a little rest
He obviously has to start with a two part series about the history of engine oil
@@grahamnelson5376 Very true, and considering how interesting most people find oil (not at all interesting) it'll probably please the algorithm and be extremely popular.
As a disclaimer I find all of these "boring" subjects fascinating. Like Tyres, oil, coolant, brake fluids, etc
I’ve seen a lot of CZcamsrs recently draining glitter out of their engines and gearboxes. Someone ought to tell them to stop putting glitter in there in the first place!
Damn chemicals in the gasoline turning the cars gay!
It’s the stolen Amazon packages causing it ….
They just have to tell their girlfriends to stop doing make up at same time that these women are change or adding oil to their vechiles for them.
@@drgunnwilliams5185 their exclusively glitter based makeup, those woman-types are strange.
Walked into clubhouse one time with (unknowns to me) woman glitter. One of guys tried giving me a hard time. I replied - What jealous, because you don't have one that rubbs it off on you?@@crackedemerald4930
We run a cbr600 in our FSAE car and have had really good luck with the Dailey engineering dry sump pump that replaces your water pump, just throw in a electric water pump and add a oil swirl pot/reservoir and we still keep 80+psi pulling 1.5gs
I love that "slight ticking noise" you mentioned at 1:56. I could barely hear that.
I recently added an oil accumulator to my track toy and it definitely helped stabilize the oil pressure. It just depends on the level of "racecar" you're looking for. For my stockish track toy it's a great improvement for about $500 ish dollars including the accumulator, and all the lines, oil filter mount, et cetera that I made. Where as a dry sump would be a couple thousand easily. One change I would make however is putting in an electronic valve, the manual valve is simple but inconvenient.
Do you ever use it as a pre-oiler before starting?
@@OvertravelX Yes, that's the primary reason I installed it. Since I drive the car maybe once a month I wanted a way to protect it at startup. Because even though oil filters have an anti-drain back valve in them they are not perfect (and not all brands are made equal) and will eventually leak by all the oil leaving you with dry bearings. It also added some insurance on the track too.
some engines can end up trapping oil in the top end and starving the mains. oil can also foam and be a problem. long corners dont help.in a motorcycle centrifugal force keeps oil at a level that keeps the pressure constant. in a car? not so much.
I'm lost in envy of Matts attitude to life. Mistakes were probably made but fun was definitely had. All hail.
This was fantastic, like a mechanical engineering version of Forensic Files with Matt's dry humor to accentuate the morbid death of the Honda motorcycle engine.
If you like this kind of engine CSI content, may I suggest to you this video czcams.com/video/En52_44umYw/video.html and most of his videos. It has no Matt, but still...
@@artbk Ha! I never miss an episode of I Do Cars! I've learned so much from both channels. They scare the hell out of me to the point I've become a routine maintenance fanatic. Also great humor on his channel.
This is the PERFECT description, well done lol.
I always love the commentary. The phrase “faint ticking noise” is nicely understated.
3:13, "ran some calculations"
Looked at beam, that'll do...
I could not notice that slight ticking.. lol
Daignosis correct. BUT you should have a 25-30psi oil light. A trailer light is best big and bright!
And ofcourse an oil guage which is the first guage any engine should get, followed by water and oil temp. Than a tach!!
A better pan and what I find to be an excellent deaeraration device, an oil cooler. Not so much for temp but as a device to deaerate the oil. You may have oil and oil pressure but oil with 20% air does not lubricate near as well as straight cooler oil.
The sidecar racers or bike engined sportscar crew use a swivelling oil pick up to get round this issue
I love how understated you make things. Slight ticking.
could barely hear it to be honest.
Make a 'pendulum' oil pickup. It's a oil pickup with a swivel in the middle and the end always seeks the gravity low spot. Works great until it gets a small vacuum leak and sucks air.
Dunno, that dry sump thing sounds more robust.
The next engine should be a Hayabusa engine with an added little turbo 😁
I'd suggest a K1600 engine, which has nowhere near the same degree of affordability, power, (lack of) weight, tunability, aftermarket support, or anything really. But hey it's a tiny straight 6
Nah, he should definitely keep it a Honda engine, imo
Turbobusa is a go
@@Blaquer17 The GL1800 awaits your ascension to the land of 6 cylinders
@@Bobinatronus Good one!
I just found this channel and I'm loving it. He talks in a way where technical things are easy to understand.
Seriously, I literally tried to watch this video without laughing out loud. The subtle noise part put a smile on my face, but the fast-forwarding part got me. hahahahahaha
I know the usual step now would be to go to the venerable hayabusa engine, maybe with a little something called a turbo attached at this point (as the old busa engine is to engine swaps what crabs are to evolution) but may I suggest something from Honda that I am absolutely not sure would even fit in the engine bay?
A Goldwing GL1800 engine.
Triumph rocket three might work too...🤔
I think he's pretty set on a Honda engine.
Maybe a CBR 1000 this time to have more "torque"
@@anidiotinaracingcar4874 i think there was a BMW engine on a workbench in a previous video
K1600 engine!
"safe-T-turbo" for safe overtaking
"Matt Bueller" at the end. :D
He should have filmed that wearing a dressing gown.
I had to scroll this far for someone to get the reference 😂
Please please!!!! Do your own dry sump! I've been researching this a bunch for my project and would love to see your take on it. Sucks that you blew the engine but looks like you had fun doing it!
It is easy to do on a car engine since we have plenty of space with acc drive system with belts to run an off the shelf hydraulic pump. On a motorcycle engine replumbing the stock pumps pickup and oil galleys to do a dry sump is doable as well. The pump does not have to be external. With a small internal pump you would have to be careful about the length of the runs, diameter or tubing and lift height. So no 5 gallon drum of oil in the trunk area of the car. The thing to remember though about a proper dry sump especially in racing is that getting the oil out of the path of the crank and preventing oil starvation in sustained tight turns is only the side benefits. The real benefit is how much power you can build pulling a vacuum on the bottom end of the engine. That is why racing bodies like say NASCAR limit the size of the hydraulic pump that can be used on the engine. Things like bay to bay breathing on the bottom end become almost less of an issue. It also allows for far more oil capacity than would be doable with a conventional oil pan and the need to package things. In F1 using oil consumption as a means of increasing power and range with exotic oils some of which are designed to burn on purpose and creative PCV systems to facilitate that has also been done already as well!
I had to play the clip 4-5 times to hear the ticking... it was indeed subtle!!
When I was doing the "motorcycle engine in a car" thing in a different context (also FSAE), we used to think that the starvation issue was more worrying with "normal" transverse mounting (where the lateral accel means slosh across the pan) than with "longitudinal" mounting (where the lateral accel is kinda like the longitudinal accel/decel the bike engine would see when starting and stopping without pulling sick wheelies and endos). I guess we all were wrong there, but right to spend too much of our lives making a dry sump. Thanks for showing us the light, and good luck with the new revision. Design, build, asplode, repeat.
We also had this issue, our solution was a custom oil pan that was about 1" deep, it had a few baffles and one-way flaps to stop sloshing. Kept oil pressure within a few psi of nominal on skidpad.
We still had a wetsump, but had an L-shaped pickup with a weight on the end that swiveled on a ball bearing. Our previous drysumps kept blowing engines, once we switched to that wetsump we were able to keep our engine healthy for years.
Yeah it makes little difference.
For example in an LS3 on sustained right hand corner over 1.4G it will accumulate oil in left hand head and starve the mains.
You can still starve a longitudinally mounted F20C in an S2000 with stock rims and a baffled sump.
Accusump for casual track days or dry sump if you want to pull G's an run hard. Best part is priming engine before you start it by turning the oil pump separately :)
@@N4CR5 Interesting examples. All the concerns about the orientation of acceleration in corners I mentioned in reference to sumps also applies to drainback design, too. But you're right that a sump wouldn't solve those.
So next week we will see Matt with a new used 180hp Honda motorcycle engine. Sweet !
Shame about that motor. But, hey! Sh*t happens. You always make me laugh somewhere in your video's, loved the end of this one.
Ok Matt, it's Hayabusa engine time.
Exactly, turbo Hayabusa easy 300++ HP ...
or too restrictive oil baffle. in a corner oil sloshes and gets trapped above the baffle and cant drain back. then straight up run out of oil under the baffle and around the pickup. could be something idk. also what's next? busa, zx14 would probs be better with the extra displacement than the rrrrrrrrrrrsp-r motor you mentioned previously.
also how do you get a good oil level when you have an accumulator? you don't want it to suck up air cuz all the oil is in the chamber. or does it just self regulate and you don't have to worry about it.
I noticed that too.It's not a good design
The accumulator self regulates. It can only hold so much oil so basically you adjust the level in the engine so the engine is full when the accumulator is also full.
It depends on the system but, generally the accumulator basically just injects more oil under pressure whenever the engine oil pressure is lower than what’s in the accumulator. Then, whenever the engine pressure comes back up it recharges the accumulator.
At the end of the day accumulators are bandaids and don’t really solve the problem. They’re good for pre-oiling an engine before starting it though.
@@NBSV1 ok i get it just have a volume measurement for the oil level then add the volume of the accumulator.
but how does it work as a pre-oiler? shouldn't the accumulator be empty when there is no oil pressure? ie. when it's not running before you start it.
@@nick4506 It has a valve between the accumulator and the engine. Either a manual one or an electronic one. Basically if you close the valve before you shut off the engine then the accumulator will store however much oil under pressure. Then, you can open the valve before starting and the accumulator will push that pressurized oil into the engine to pre-lube it.
Accumulators are great as a pre-lube device, especially for things that sit a long time. They help with oil issues on track, but aren't the ideal solution.
@@NBSV1 cool, idk it seems like a perfect solution to me. adequate oiling with stock pump reliability? and without the cost or paracidic losses of running a 5 pump dry sump? sounds great. i guess if your raceing up the Guggenheim you will find the limits but i think it's adequate.
Hi Matt, I love your sense of humor 🤣 Thank you for making CZcams better. Regards from Germany, Ralph
So if you do a motorcycle power plant swap you need a dry sump system so you never have to worry about problem I'm guessing? Awesome video teaching us what to do and no to do lol.
Don't be silly. You need active mounts so your engine can lean when your car corners. A few linear actuators, some Arduino...
@@Lawrence330 Make it passive and mechanical so steering tilts the engine.
A whole new meaning to "torque steer".
@@EmyrDerfel I see where you're going with that, but the lean angle depends on the lateral acceleration, which depends on both speed and steering angle, not just steering angle. You an build a mechanical calculator... or go the computer-and-actuator route. Or just put in an accumulator.
What a treat it was stumble across this video. My dad raced an S600 he imported from Canada back in the day... Good stuff.
Your videos always make me laugh! and I so appreciate that you own your mistakes. one of my favorite you tubers
Well explained! Sorry for your loss. Looks like you were having a blast till it was time for the trailer.
I felt so special when I too could hear that subtle ticking noise. Made me feel like a proper gear head.
A+ Ferris Bueller reference.
Wow thx for the lesson in lubricating, I was daydreaming about doing the same to my microcar and now have added a new chapter of things needed to consider.
Always finding new ways to make life bumpy. Congratulations and thanks for your efforts.
Seen a significant number of bike engines fail in kits cars (Caterhams, Westfields, Furys, others) through oil starvation on tracks in the UK and Europe some 20 years ago. People quickly resorted to using dry sumps or Accusumps. The Accusump works for short surge situations. Dry sump is the only "proper" solution but it is expensive.
Today I discovered video you did with jay leno a while ago and loved it. Came to your channel for more content on this car and looks like I’m right on time!
So cool to see a growing CZcams who lives somewhat close to where I live😁 keep up the good work Matt
Excited to see the new idea you run with. This car is my favorite of your builds
First time seeing your channel mate, love the content just subbed.
Sweet build and autopsy.... subscribed!
This channel is friggin hilarious, great stuff man
Great Video, great analysis and report. Finally a CZcamsr with knowledge and credibility!
I learn from the wisdom of your experiences. Thank s for sharing man!
Your content is amazing Matt! Hope your week has been great other than the blown engine.
Love this content👍
Keep up the good work.
Time for dry sump … and a big Kawasaki. You narratives are definitely the best. 👏👏👏👏
Never seen your vids but subbed after a minute. Love motorbike engine swaps specially Honda. Engine sounded sweet to me as an ex submarine captain.
Great explanations and analysis.
Love your videos - and the car!
What a great content every time!
Thank you!
Sounds like a perfectly running ducati engine to me!? 😂😉
Great example of a spun bearing. BTDT! Sucks to be sure. I cured mine with a new motor and an accusump and crank scraper, and windage tray... total overkill, but seemed prudent.
While having a beer after a stressful day at work. Watching your video I hear "not sure if you be able to hear it" turn up the volume on my headset , I nearly spat beer everywhere 😂🤣
I love watching your mind dissect problems. O_O You're so smart and I'm jelly.
This expansion really good😉👌🏾
Great Ferris reference. Love it.
On our internal combustion FSAE cars (using the '07/'08 CBR600RR) we ran trapdoor baffles in a custom oil pan which worked well, although FSAE autocross corners are nowhere near as long as those on a road course. The trap door baffles let oil into the center area where the pickup is, but they don't let it out. At least in FSAE, IMO you don't need to go dry sump if you have a well designed oil pan. We also overfilled the engine oil a bit which helped.
Nice to see a fellow SRT member on the internet. I also have a motorcycle powered car 126p with a cbr929 engine (i use it for amateur rally) I highly recommend going to a 04-07 cbr1krr engine they are cocroaches and make wonderful power. Or a cross plane r1 if you want that sweet sound. Best luck on your future endeavors and thanks for the amazing content !!!!
I have done the same conversion to my nissan 1400 ldv. Known as a 1200 sunny truck. Im located in south africa. Bought a bike and used as much of the bike as i could. Love your videos.
I think you will find that buying a dry sump kit for the motor you select is a good option :-)
"slight ticking noise", sure.......
Also, where's "all hail the algorithm"?
👍🏻Awesome videos!!! We live and learn and move on with a little more knowledge!!! Thanks again for sharing!!!
I had an old Triumph TR7 I tried using as a ITB SCCA car around 1999. The engine did a bearing consumption move that produced a tick very similar to yours... fixed mine with straight 70 weight motor oil, well it sounded fixed for about the first two minutes after a cold start up.
If something breaks, gets damaged, or destroyed, it means you deserve a better one. I suggest a Honda 1000RR which makes slightly better horsepower and costs enough to inspire that trick dry-sump system you mentioned. Love the channel - keep up the good work.
Superfast Matt you're my Hero!
An homage to Ferris! You truly have a great channel! ~P
Well, that kind of sux, but it doesn't really since you wanted a different engine anyway.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
May you and yours remain safe, healthy, and prosperous!
Interesting, informative, a good watch. Thanks!
I've had this on my mazda. Hard driving leads to low oil pressure, which leads to no oil, which leads to leaving your internals all over the glorious blacktop
i am in love with the car and you deserve a sub
Many years back I remember hearing a Commer van with the dreaded big end death rattle as I drove past in the opposite direction. I thought 'If he gets that thing home it'll be a miracle'. On the way back, there was the van, about 50 yards further on and a lump of metal lying in the road behind it in a pool of oil. No miracles that day!
Good luck whatever solution you decide on, Matt...I'll enjoy your approach to the problem whatever you decide to do.
Happy New year Matthew. I cant wait to watch you have the the same problem in the Jag. Little known fact..... under high lateral acceleration the electrons will slop to one side and starve your motor of the sweet sweet juice and go ba-bang. Please be the first man in history to dry sump a Telsa motor. 2022 is gonna be epic if you do this.
Wow that was a very good explanation
Love this car ever since I saw it on Jay Leno's garage. Well done.
DIY dry sump sounds awesome
Best one man show on CZcams! 😃
CZcams algorithm brought me here, but boy i’m glad it did 👍🏻. Nice video, and really loving the look of the car 💪🏻
Shame the motor blew, but I see a great opportunity to stick a v four engine inside.
That little clip at the end with the bear made me hit the like button, would have forgotten otherwise.
Loved your little car every since the first CZcams review !
I hope you find a suitable replacement. I'll also enjoy watching your replacement video series.
The engine management desperately needs an oil pressure warning shutdown.
You should be able to hack together something with a pressure sensor and an Arduino or ESP8266.
Dry sump is definitely a better SOLUTION 👍
Ah, another fine show Matt, thanks!
(All hail etc. etc.)
I feel like i am at home when i watch your videos
I would opt for the heavy-duty rubber band! No oil issues there.
Excellent piece as ever SuperFastFerris - I bet 100mph in that feels transonic 😃 Second package of merch (mugs) arrived in the UK Monday (ordered the same day they were released), BTW… 👍
8:48 Michigan International Speedway Formula SAE endurance event. Worked it many times.... Is awesome!
you can try a wider custom oilpan that holds more oil. we did this on our own FSAE car. worked well.
It never really occurred to me about the oil sloshing in a car sump vs a bike sump. I learned something today, thanks.
Love the Ferris Bueller ending.
Great post - love the comment "Slight ticking noise"
I use a "snake oil", ProBlend. Since 1984. I have many stories, one is the block cracked in my Mazda pickup and all the oil went into the water. To keep it short, the temp needle was off scale. I drove over 100 miles down to Los ALtos and back up the Santa Cruz mountains. The engine started right up and stopped like nothing happened. The spark plug boots were very swollen. It was trashed but it started right up. I had used it for 6 years, 120K miles so it had nice coating of ProBlend (8000, 8080). So I've used it on everything, even pre mix for my sons MX races. It makes wet clutch's and transmissions shift smoother.
As a wise man once said "shit happens".
Matt! Perhaps it's too late, or this isn't the direction you want to go... But I would love to see a BMW K1600 engine go into this thing.
