Ogle Carburetor Prototype

This is a device that vaporizes gas much like the Ogle carburetor did. This is very easy to make, and it works. Make sure you have hot glue. You will need it.

Also remember: This is just a prototype, so use JB Weld if your going to make a permanent device. The glue will come loose (speaking from experience here.).

Here are some videos that I took:

A glass jar.

Lid for glass jar.

Copper Tubing.

Plastic Connector

Plastic Tubes

Hot Glue.

A small engine for testing (lawnmower engine, make sure it runs)

A brass fitting will not melt, so attach it on there.

Drill 4 holes in a circular pattern near the edge of the lid and punch a 1-inch hole in the middle of the lid.

Cut tubes 1 inch longer than the height of the jar.

Glue the plastic fitting on the 1-inch hole in the lid, and the tubes into the smaller holes on the side of the lid with about 1 cm of space from the bottom of the jar. If you want a permanent solution, use JB Weld. or silicon maybe.

Fill with gas and attach the device to motor with the tube. Give it a few cranks. You may need to give it a little air too.
