Ah, sounds like you are probably correct, I thought you meant the intake was blocked. Makes sense the soot is burnt fuel from the adjacent cylinder building there because at engine speed the turbo holds it back like you mentioned. Hopefully a new gasket is all that is needed.

It would seem to me that if the #6 intake port is blocked then air from the cylinder would not be moving out the intake side. That intake being blocked leads me to believe that large amounts of air is able to enter #6 from somewhere else during the intake stroke. Not drawing air in through the...

So no air flow into #6?

That would be 600,528,126,000,000,000,000,000,000 HP for the power output of the sun. And 60,052,812,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 HP for the power output of our galaxy based on the estimation of 100 billion stars. Lots of energy to be had, delivering it is the tricky part.

post up in the parts wanted classified.

It would be interesting to know the horsepower of the sun by way of comparison? Then consider the horsepower of a galaxy such as our's, the mikly way?

classic!

Hi Artisan. I really like your posts. You have a unique talent for asking seemingly simple questions for which there is not a simple answer. I have not watched the video. However I believe I can explain some of what is going on based on the comments here and what I have seen in the past...

I would guess the cooler exhaust manifold is due to lack of firing in that cylinder with the cause being not enough compression. The rough running is because of misfire of at least that cylinder throwing the engine out of balance. The head needs to come off and inspection performed to know...

Usually just pulling the dipstick will tell. After water in the crankcase gets mixed up by the crankshaft the oil will look like chocolate milk instead of like new or used oil.

Mine has a dated overhaul tag fixed to the drivers door jamb. A1 and A2 usually indicate design improvements on newer models.

Sometimes a leaking head gasket or block/head damage will cause the engine oil to look like chocolate milk from coolant entering the block. Compression test will answer alot.

white or blue smoke from a combustion engine usually indicates oil is burning. Black smoke usually indicates fuel is burning. Diesels & two strokes can be tricky because the fuel contains oil.

I see alot of people doing the same silly things on youtube, not sure if this is really an indicator of anything usefull. It sounds more like the stuff fantasies are made of. The laws of thermodynamics state that: -You can not win. More energy can not be extracted from something than is...

Low voltage around 50-90v can stop your heart. Not many systems use this voltage range and that is why. 120v like in your wall outlet will make you mad or worse under the right conditions like standing in water. You typicaly remember coming to after being hit with 240v like your electric...

Curious to see what you find.

That woodstove makes me warm just looking at it.

I am in the process of designing an S-280 based camper so I have been giving this topic a bit of consideration. I am leaning toward a gas operated heater which draws oxygen from the outside and vents emmisions to the outside. I'm guessing the RV type mentioned in a previous post would be a...

I always had a gut feeling that blinker fluid was a military term.
