Extra oil line
This extra oil line is on my power unit. It runs from a bottle on top )with a shut off) to the vacume plug in the intake manifold. Why and what is it.
Thanks
Here is a picture.

Great contest. What is the prize?
My 1st guess. Something like an ether container to help start the unit in very cold weather.
2nd guess. Something to improve fuel mileage. My brother installed something like that on a car. It used a mix of water and menthol.
Can the container be unscrewed or opened up to put something inside?

I have an excuse. CRS.

Insect fogger? It's impossible to know what the installer had in mind or if it was even a good idea. It's unlikely it was originally on the unit.

That is interesting, a Top Oiler. The engine I was told is on the original mount from it's Harvester thresher bailer days. My friend, Al Cobb who bought it for me as a buzz saw in Penn Yan NY. Are there gas wells near the Finger lakes? Would a Top oiler be used with Propane?

I had a Jeep with a 327 Chevy engine in it years ago, and it had a water injector that looked very simular to that, Im not sure what a water injector did, but thats what the sticker on it said.

Ever hear of war emergency power on WW2 fighters? Spraying water into the cylinders cools the mixture allowing for more air and fuel to enter resulting in more power( improved volumetric effeciency). It wasn't good for the engine though. I've read that if it were used to escape the enemy the engine was used up once they got back.

The important part Bill is that they got back. A pilot returned was a precious item in WWII. To get the pilot back and a usable airframe at the same time priceless. In a way engines were expendable.

I would assume the the water turnign to steam as the cylinder fired also raised compression.WKPoor wrote:I had a Jeep with a 327 Chevy engine in it years ago, and it had a water injector that looked very simular to that, Im not sure what a water injector did, but thats what the sticker on it said.
