The Shell car simply had insulation for reason on its engine hot bulb/hit-and-miss/steam ore Sterling engine perform better if they don't lose heat in the first place and its easy'r to start engine if its insulated protected from cold conditions, so the engine is wrapped like thermos coffee bottle or boiler so you don't need to pre-heat that engine with torch or fire even after few days again it's complicated to start high compression engines without high amplifier ignition, engine heater you have low sauces starting it and special designed methods are known how to start such engines with massive torque again if every thing fails tank mechanical starter motor is you're fried.
All rest gizmos that you see are just accessories to make engine work in entrain way.
For example the flywheel itself could by an electro magnetic generator it can be mechanical battery it can be or act as gear controller it even can act as tesla turbine, if you wanted you could simply have all that in 1 unit and run it in series ore para rel configuration.
Even the exhaust manifold and exhaust piping could by insulated and energy stored as in steam for external vessels dizel engines are after all combination of Sterling/steam engines!
And you could use that heat from exhaust as thermal battery's again please refers to Wikipedia.
So, you can always convert normal losses in engines and make them do something ells instead.
Well, in my case I bought engine oil and coolant more who were at that time cheaper than lets say 100 liters of gasoline I did add some special booster fluids to my gasoline to increase growth or creation of pure methanol or ethanol.
Well, simply starting and running ethanol or methanol are different simply that is well documented, and you can find it easily on Google.
So, what to say more?
People slowly get the idea what I'm pointing out.
Actually no those engines don't lose power actually no you are not limited to power or speed or economy and no, you defiantly don't need mechanics to rip you off because those engines are designed to handle that power.
So, the GM Opel Chevy engines are simply great.
And they did had steam cars, jett cars, electric cars and what not in the past.
Only mascaraed projects to get attention the real hybrid engine was always on the roads, simply people didn't noticed it.
My engine is a copy from the pre ww2 war Opel Olympia later badged as Opel Record, American version Chevy Bell Air then again Europe badged Opel Ascona .
And please be all mean's look books what they had for technology before ww2.
So to my they are simple and powerfully engines.
Around total power using all engine design's in controlled manner that same engine has over 20k horsepower or beyond and further more rpm total speed is how much the jet engine could provide ore tesla pump and that is 20-40k rpm.
So, again ask Wikipedia how strong srting/steam engines are in torque, ask as well wiki how fast tesla turbine can go ore ballistic missile ore jet turbine because they had it all.
That's prove of concept if a made scientist mechanic get his hand's to one of those engine's like myself then it can do magic.
No limitations no stopping nearly endless power if you know how to convert it!
This is again similar how Peter Linderman describes John Bedinis work .
Those are mare mirror image motors from one ich other, the same concept applies to compound motors even better if you add s g electric magnetic starter generator in to that mix.
But in my case, even without adding further technology I'm still happy by just using hot bulb or hit-and-miss engine effect ore liker motor effects I'm pretty much happy with my economy and actually I carry half the car's spare parts in the trunk with my when I travel seriously parts are so cheap that's its laughable how easy it is to repair such engines if I wanted I could have reinforced parts and simply not change them at all but save the hell don't need them.
It's just love for old cars nothing more it's not the technology what makes people awesome ore their cars it's just experience gained from years by working with those engines.
You must love what you do simply to achieve a goal in life, nothing ells you require.
Simply, it works.
It is worth to mention that mister Joe Broke show in one of he's video's all-wheel drive Suzuki Jimmy sierra ore by Europe standards called the samurai that engine is also gasoline/dizel engine block it also has trowel with leaks and back charging components like alternator it also has something ells lets say you drive at high altitude regions if that engine does not have air compensator (air filter housing) ques what the engine will refuse to stop it dizel's just because of pressure difference outside, and we all are pretty much familiar probably with old dizel engines at some time they used hot tubes to control engine speed and possibly that accelerator sensor failed on that Suzuki that's what you get if you run in to back charge, so he did stop at buss station for reason because that small engine is simulating basically buss ore big dizel truck.
And that same 300 doler Suzuki is pretty much same as my engine with litel differences it also comes with reinforced bracket for crankcase to hold that crank shaft better they actually can be convertible either use 2 stroke or 4 stroke or both with duel fairing ignition system.
Simply it's just old oil see please Wikipedia again even dizel fuel is effected from bacteria.
Any way it's small 1.0l engine he does use lite energy after all in he's dizel state or hot bulb or hit-and-miss without turbo he can run pretty much long time.
Perhaps people can see how to grass trimmer 2 stroke work even when you turn off magneto still that thing dizels by its own and you actually can use that thing even if it is faulty you just load it more to prevent it from self-destructing that dizeling effect is mostly related to wrong fuel grade jet size under cent rain atmospheric high differences they work 3-5 minutes on their own without spark but in controlled manner you can work all day with that trimmer just loading that thing to perform torque.
I hope this explains the Suzuki video.
So, no fuel, no coolant, but it will stop if you unplug that blow by hose coming from the crankcase or choke the engine close either by intake ore exhaust manifold old trucks did have engine braking at exhaust using choke flap normal engine breaking/stopping methods.
Or simply that alternator become brushless DC motor, and you simply go electric drive by decompressing engine ore use only the open exhaust valve mode fairing own lubrication oil, so I suspect the starter motor has twin gears on the Bendix and possibly the flywheel actually 2 gear sets 1 for starting the other for charging so that's how you get a starter/generator and the starter is directly feeding alternator with power and the battery without proper regulator is pretty much dead, and you end up with non regulated generator either with plasma or amplifier ignition so in a sense pretty much cool staff.
So fare every thing considering Joe is correct.
Well, I do believe there is some rerouting re adjusting fuse box and lot bypassing involved mostly reinforcing parts involved but it would work any way the ford model T used something similar after all and the Willy and kubelwagen as well so no doubt it would work.
But again I have my own theories and methods's of conversion .
I did in fact experience all that unusual effects.
So similarly Stanley Mayer done to he's car just that fancy non sense wasn't really necessary actually he cannot claim what is not he's people invented some of those devices and patents before him.
So, it's not really hydrogen neither.
Those are simply mixture gases used with bacteria over time, so that's why I call the electrolysis/microbial fuel cells and that's what they are basically.
People probably did see Joe's experiment with water and oil that staff simply changes viscosity of liquids in entrain environment.
Hydrogen alone hardly can engine run, it simply does not have energy enough wh
