The Christmas Quiz Jultävlingen inför julen 2011 var kanske i svåraste laget (det kom inte in några rätta svar). This is a new chance to boost Your self-confidence självförtroen just by finding some of the faults we created in the picture. det genom att hitta åtminstone några av de fel som vi sökte. Nu större bild och någon ledtråd som gör det lättare, så testa gärna genom att klicka här, eller på bilden. Facit finns sedan för de som vill kolla.
Most people know well the fact that combustion engines pollute our environment by emitting cancerogene substances and other unpleasantnesses, leading to climate changes. One method towards correction of these problems is the use of cathalysers.
Another method for avoiding the problem is the use of methanol, an alcoholic fluid which on combustion turns into water. Drawbacks are high consumption and the risk for corrosion inside the engine.
But now one of our cunning amateur engineers found another method. The engine runs on ordinary paper, preferably accounting material for fuel. This picture, showing the method in use, was taken at one of our meetings. The normally quite loquacious owner immediately clammed up completely when posed the question how on earth the paper fuel transfers from the tank through the carburettors through the cylinder heads and out through the silencer. As witnessed by the persons present, the engine started, sounded and behaved like an ordinary one. Some problems remain to be solved, such as collection of the confetti-like droppings shown in the picture. It has been proposed to use the residue for absorption of engine oil under Vincent motorcycles. This idea, though, was immediately rejected, since these motorcycles never drop oil.
