Don't do it mate..The holes are on the cooling fins so i can't drill and screw them there xD
Today i order new fuel primer for my carb because it broke lol. Was old and lost it's elasticity.
Guys do you think that a fuel pump will make any difference
Also i had one more idea. To order a cylinder and piston for zenoah 26cc marine and install it on my engine
I'm the kind of person who can't stick with stock products for too long????
Don't do it mate..
It will heat seize without cooling fins, unless you can find a darksoul billet cylinder shell but good luck with that ???
Guys it's obvious that i will install radiator and pump.
I ain't noob in mechanics ?
I'm electrical engineer and mechanical engineer don't worry
i cleaned the carb, it's like brand new, all it needs is the fuel primer.?
I will try to setup the walbro from my 46cc chainsaw but the problem is that it needs crankcase back pressure. :/
Here was a quick test after cleanup, you can see how it's leaking gas from the primer?
and yes i had much more oil in gas on purpose xD
Ah no worries mate. For me there is always something to learn no matter the backgroundWell I didn't know your background,so I start at the beginning.
A lot people just starting out show up and try to help best I can.
Telling us your background would've saved time,in me trying to simplify everything.?
Oh cool since you know about watercooled pc, my idea was based on pc water cooling ? a radiator with single fan or push pull set up so it will fit on the model and a 12v water pump.Funny I thought about that before also, Ive seen one in real life. (This was a thing years ago)
His ran ok for short periods.
He had thermal issues, cooling capacity/packaging among other issues and would've needed larger/more efficient/effective cooling parts, rads/fans/higher flow pump.
There's also diminishing returns past a certain point,so it's a balancing act. You'll need preferably the smallest components that'll complement each other for the most effective + efficient cooling system.
Fitting all this on a small rc chasis won't be easy.
I'd start with a larger vehicle.
Cooling in no particular order:
Engine thermal output(heat pump), cooling efficiency- radiator/s+fan size+efficiency, water flow,Airflow even tubing size+ length,ambient temps,engine load/speed,heatsoak.
Living in a colder climate would be a .
If you can overcome the cooling and it be robust enough for hits, tumbles it would help.
At the time the available w/c stuff used was for pc's.
There might be a better solution to handle the heat these days. It was several years ago when I saw his car.
There's a reason why it's not a thing,it's just too complicated and really not efficient for this type of vehicle. It was looked at and experimented with by rc makers as I said earlier.
I remember a guy trying to use a self contained prebuilt system,it was a spectacular fail.?
Some of my wc community people might be interested in the challenge.
Your an engineer,you should have some ideas-?. I know - just joking with you.
I deleted a reply that became a unfinished novel explaing some of the dynamics.
I decided on a simpler post.?
(I'm experience at building watercooled computer systems+)
Is there a particular reason you want to use watercooling besides "The cool factor?"
Dang now you have me thinking about it again.
Edit---- ---
Well you came to right place because there's a lot of seriously knowledgeable chainsaw people here.
Hopefully one of them can help you with the carb issue.
