Here is the link. I can figure out how to "embed" the video in the post like the smart people do.

So that's why we burn gas...

The acetylene was pretty cool! I need to find some acrylic and try this myself! :)

You might try facing the combustion side with gorilla glass to see if it lasts longer.

I thought the rush of the burned gases over to the exhaust valve as it opened was very interesting.

I also don't know exactly what to think about the liquid alcohol squishing around in the cylinder.....perhaps the liquid was adhering to the head and it really wasn't completely full of liquid as it appeared to be.

I also know that fooling around with the Acetylene/Oxygen is very dangerous and not to be fooled around with. I know a fellow in Michigan that used to set the Acetylene/Oxygen mixture to get a nice blue flame, then he would extinguish the flame and fill beach balls with the mixture. One day he was doing that and there must have been some kind of a static spark and the beach ball exploded while he was holding it between his knees. He got serious burns and blood coming out his ears.

I wonder what % of alcohol that was. Rubbing alcohol usually has water added to it unless you find the 99% type.

Ohhh, my... Such a seemingly harmless thing to do,, and it literally blew up in his face.
