Gang:
Today, I finished converting The Homebrew Hvid engine back
to Hvid from the spark ignition naphtha fueled version I
tried.
I found that the Hvid didn't make enough power to run The
2009 Algore Edition Green Hybrid Hoyt-Clagwell and the clag
boogers from the exhaust got all over everything. I
converted it to spark ignition but it was still a bit on the
wimpy side although it really ran sweet.
Because I now have The McVickerish Engine on the tractor,
I've made a cart ("trolley" for the Aussies and Brits out
there) and a radiator for display. See my web page for the
story and photos.
Now, with The Homebrew Hvid, I can go to shows and really
stink up the area - just like the Maytag guys do. Maybe I
can locate close to some Maytags and mingle my black smoke
with their white smoke and irritating sound to create a
REALLY annoying area. :-)
Science is always working for you at Hoyt Clagwell &
Company.
Oops, didn't mean to offend the Maytag Motor guys and gals.
Take care - Elden
