Yep, that's how it works - suck, squeeze, bang, blow!

Combustion didn't look very efficient though, it didn't seem to fill the chamber... any idea what engine it is?

Dunno but i'd like to see a diesel filmed in the same way!



That'd be cool as fek having a videocam fitted to your engine like that! Imagine it! Stuff dyno runs for tuning, get yer cam out and start tweaking things, seeing how you affect swirl patterns (and efficiency of combustion) with polishing and porting, different airfilters.. valve timing...etc etc

oops salivating. shud stop now..


I wonder how much those cams cost..
