Default Cool videos on engine oils

I was perusing youtube for stupid videos, found a few about people seeing how they could kill an engine. This eventually led to links to videos about engine lubricants....they are old, but very interesting

Part 1

Part 2

Enjoy!

Matt

the oldness of the video makes it even better, its the kind of thing they still show in GCSE science lessons

The title of this thread is an Oxymoron

i bored maria with that one! Really cool, UCL have an engine that you can see into the combustion chamber. There are some other videos on youtube aswell showing valve float (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_REQ1PUM0rY)

and heres a really nice video of ferrari engines being put together:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdcoVurVY30

damn, i love youtube!!! I have discovered its usefull for more than watching people planting their face in an often painfull manner against very hard materials

dude, we are slipping into depths of nerdiness that others will frown on

Amazing seeing the amount of valve movement in that engine.
