  1. add a battery pack to it like , the car wheego you have to google it theirs room under the hood for 212 cc engine and it has a five speed trans with 3 phase electric motor . love to see if you could do it

  2. I wanted to take a minute to comment and say that this is a really interesting educational experimental series. I like how you take the time to explain what's happening in terms that can be quantified, rather than just slap stuff together "because it's cool". I'm a Diesel Technician by trade and find content like this interesting.

  3. Craigslist ad in 6 mos:

    "Honda tuner. Many aftermarket parts. Great commuter vehicle. $6,500 o.b.o."

  4. Could you go for even more offset and an even bigger jet just by running higher octane gas in it to reduce detonation?

  5. In France they have a bunch of little things cars like this called 'sans permit' which teenagers and alcoholics drive.

  6. With every upgrade on this little engine now it would be great for what it is intended for , super workhorse for any project .

  7. Hate to split hairs…..tire pressure and outside temperature close to the same between runs? Any added weight?

  8. Directions unclear…I inserted smallest carburetor jet and my wife says I still have too much gas.

  9. I was born and raised in rural northern Michigan, but live overseas now so It's been fun taking little drives around my childhood home in these well-made videos! Keep it up!
