Open source Two stroke diesel plans

Post by Stuart »

Just got sent this link which I'll share here: http://hackaday.com/2016/04/08/an-open- ... ke-diesel/

Be sure to read the comments though as the numbers may not stack up with this. If it's like a cycle motor then it'll not be easy to start with no proper injector.

I still think the stepped piston would have been the way to go.
Bernard Hooper engineering no longer exists so I don't know what happened to the patents.

The company is still registered as active and Bernard's two sons are directors. so there's a good chance they still hold the patents.
