1 stroke engine

[shelpi]

feasable, practicle or is it even viable Ive got a brain ache and gone temporarily insane but still think it could be done  can someone talk some sence back ito me

[TT5 Matt]

an old mate here has designed and built his own engine,even had it running but no one wants change so its not gunna go into production anytime soon that's for sure!!! but if your onto to something then go for it,reinvent the wheel

so ya mates made a 1 stroke?
nah I'm to lazy and have a motorcycle addiction so wont be building anything, but cant see why it couldnt be done, just trying to entaginize (cant spell) a few of the brainy acts on here whilst exposeing my mental retarded side I get to expose 2 birds with 1 stone

There was a guy with a working 3 stroke a while back.

[TT5 Matt]

its been 15yrs or more since ive seen it so some of it is a bit fuzzy but its had a rotary piston/seals in it and a crank shaft but it wasn't a wankle engine. it also had a 2t reed valve  dumping in to the cases,i could find out more if he wants it out there.

One-strokes have been around for years, most people call them guns.

There are also 5 and 6 stroke engines . Google those ones also some bloke on Kneeslider designed a L twin Ducati crank to operate via 8 pistons. Lots of levers and arms, it looked feasible but you don't get something for nothing.

What about "twingle" two strokes or a stepped piston 2 stroke single to give a supercharge effect.
With modern fuel injection and ignition the smokers will be back.

It's all a waste of time, money and effort unless you can achieve something beyond what is being done now. Efficiency will be the deciding factor on whether a new development in engines will be invested in. Volumetric efficiency, more power for less fuel, and maybe cost or size efficiency. Just because a new type of engine works doesn't mean it will have a future. But it is very interesting looking at them.

Could be the point of difference required for John Orchard to separate his chariot from the others! J PS How is going John?
