Thanks for letting me make videos about things I'm genuinely interested in. Also, I'm grateful to everyone who supports on Patreon via www.patreon.com/smartereveryday . Thank you so much for your support!
Keep up the great work
Destin: your Dad's the MAN. 👍✔️ ( ... As _many_ a Dad, thankfully, IS/ARE.)
Thank you Destin!! Venturi sounds a lot like Bernoulli... Was that the original name and it got lost in translation???
To help smash up the fuel carbies have air bleeds running to each circuit. This carb has a single main circuit but pretty well all carbs have at least 2, an idle circuit and a main circuit. Running to each of the 'tubes' of each circuit is another tube with a tiny hole mounted at the air horn (intake side). This starts to airate the fuel before it gets to the venturi where it is vaporised further. It stops that droplet effect seen in this video, which increases response, economy and lowers emissions.
Yes
I love the turbulent flow (and thanks for the shoutout!) but my favorite is your reaction at 19:30
Hey hey

You ever get so excited you slap a mic?
This is so stinking cool. That feeling when a demo works better than you could have hoped.
Yes
Agreed.
You must’ve watched this video the moment he posted it. He posted it 55 minutes ago and you made this comment 11 minutes ago and the video is 24 minutes long.
Enjoy your channel as well...;)
One of those crazy rare moments.
For 2 years I passed over this video. Your title should have been "I built my own carburetor with my dad". Loved the interaction with your dad and the home made carb showing how it works was FANTASTIC.
I did too, man. This video had been recommended to me many times by KZhead, but for some weird reason I had been passing it over. Finally I got to watch it today and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I was lookin fer FIRE @08:34 is my favorite part
Same here. Then again, right place right time. I’ve been watching a lot of videos about inline 4, inline 6, V6, and boxer engines. At the same time I’ve been working on my wife’s Dodge Grand Caravan (PentaStar engine) that had a major leak coming from the oil cooler. This video came up and I said “right on time” as my interest was peaked with everything I was doing. Awesome vid!
Can't believe that I am not the only who did not watch it multiple times
Close your eyes. Now, imagine having a dad that doesn't yell at you while being drunk, but instead proceeds to talk to you about something in a loving way for 45 minutes.
Now imagine having a dad. That's all
My dad is not gifted like this dad, but he did offer to take me an hour away to buy my bike. Now it’s up to me to find out why my Suzuki bandit Mikuni carb is leaking gas. It was running fine til today , I think the ethanol messed with the float or some O ring and it’s clogged … what do you think can you ask your dad for me please?
You mean my dad?
Literally can't @@angelcortez5031
That's why mentorship amongst men, joining the military as an example fulfills that such void in us.
This is why the Internet exists. Thank you (and your dad!).
Yes
Unfortunately, the Internet is used by narcissistic idiots attention seeking to reduce their feelings of inadequacy.

Wow! I didn't know I cared about how carburetors worked until your dad started talking! Say hello to your family, especially your dad!
You probably would have blown it up ;P
@@Tsquared72 "by accident" 😂
Now blow one up on your channel
Because the engine doesn't run without a spark!...
Who read this in there head with his accent ?
What a smart man, your father. You can notice how humble he is also, maybe that is a consequence of knowlege. We need more people in this world like your father.
I don't think it is a consequence of knowledge. You can have plenty of knowledge but still be full of pride. Being prideful is the opposite to being humble. Humility is how one learns to be humble.
Man I'm a gearhead and have beeb working on engines and carburetors for decades. I had the same working understanding of how they work just like your dad, but to actually see it all in slow motion is some of the coolest stuff I've ever seen. Kuddos to y'all for doing this!
Im surprised some of this seems like new information to him and others, but it's cool how excited he gets about it and the effort put toward creating his vision.
Wow! You really got some great slow motion footage. I must have watched each clip a half dozen times. The time you spent with your dad looked pretty special as well. How nice to have it on video. 👍
you must really love mecanical engineering considering your hobby.
you?
yeah
Ayyy picking man

Mad Lad : " Try it! Try it!" Responsible Dad: " No son , it'll explode "
Sugar dad: oh yeah son
“We’ve got a fire extinguisher!” You can hear the inner child 😄
hey, he's "pretty smart for a redneck"
I absolutely love his low-key way of saying no. Calm and explaining why.
Didn't it happen at 17:59 ?
As a professional mechanical engineer, I have to say well done. This video excellent, I would go as far to say it is beautiful. Not only the camera work, but the fact you did this with your father.
Do you have your PE license? How difficult was it to obtain?
I am a retired Ford Master Tech and have opened my own repair shop. I really enjoyed your enjoyment making this video with your dad. Brought a tear to my eye that you can enjoy what you do with him.
Slow mo shot at 14:48 looks just like the water tentacle in the abyss. Also, what a beautiful device - engineering is so great
"looks just like the water tentacle in the abyss" yeah, it does. just a lot smaller.
HEY! You're the guy who did a lot of the work making the kind of laser 3D printer they used right?! The engineering titans of KZhead!
Not just a great maker, but great taste in movies too, it seems.
Yes
There's nothing I love more than seeing KZheadrs I like comment on the videos of other KZheadrs I like. I was just watching your nine catapults video, best shop tour vid I've ever seen! Edit: Look Destin used your 3d printer
""You didn't see the vapor??" "No I was looking for fire!" Such a dad response lol your dad is cool man
Even when you’re older, dad still thinks about the harm his son might be in over the project they’re working on.
That look on his face right there before he drops that, you know he's about to drop some wisdom. And he did, in perfect dad joke style, hahahaha
I’ve used the dry chemical fire extinguisher on an open carb! Grounding the spark plug to stop the motor may be better than backfiring your thumb.
The jet is way too big.
UNBELIEVABLE!!! "...as a mechanical engineer..." .........just embarrasses all mechanical engineers. Just the initial filling of the bowl is a "surprise" ???? The bowl is lower than the fuel tank. Liquid flows "down hill". Why would this be a surprise when the fuel line is connected to the bowl ???? UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! This guy is no "mechanical engineer". "Can you run TWO cylinders off of one carburetor? .....SERIOUSLY??? Clearly, this guy IS NO MECHANICAL ENGINEER. Don't tell him it can run EIGHT cylinder and more.....oh he did tell him .....too late. This video is great for explaining to kids, how a carbureted engine works .....but leaving out all the nonesense from this clown. "I understand carburetors now. Yeah. I mean, I guess nobody actually a hundred percent understand it" ...... TOO INSULTING. DO NOT USE TERMS LIKE "STOICHIOMETRIC" WHEN YOU ARE SO VERY CLUELESS ABOUT EVERYTHING AS SIMPLY AND FUNDAMENTAL AS A CARBURETED SYSTEM. "Your pretty smart for a redneck" ....how insulting coming from a "mechanical engineer". I would summarize that this clown is looking for a way to make some money from KZhead ....because there is no other way to explain it.
Life is beautiful when u have a dad like him and a slow motion camera!
Wow! That was just beautiful! Imagine being a Yamaha engineer in 1986 who works on an engine with a carburetor. He sees the blueprints, he knows how it should work but sadly he have never had a chance to see this little gasoline drop being torn into pieces by the airflow! What a pitty so many technologies was not available to these people back then (hi speed cam, 3d printing, computers, internet)! What you recorded was beautiful! Thanks!

He’s his daddy for a reason
"Did you see the intake!?" Dad: "Nah, I was lookin for fire" Such a dad 😄
At least someone is looking out for safety! Dustin is way too interested to take note of incipient infernos lol.
Dads always focus on the safety so the kids can focus on the fun. Their joy is derived from watching their kid's joy.
I love your Dad. What a patient, knowledgeable, humble and respectful man!
"Perpetual motion machine!" Hands down my favorite quote from all of your videos so far
Your dad is cool!
I came to the comments to say the exact same thing!
No way! I love seeing completely unrelated KZhead people I watch on other channels.
Proof not all us southerners are bumblin idiots… we’ve all been born, for the most part, with tremendous amounts of common and mechanical sense…
I love finding a person who's content I really enjoy also enjoying the same content I enjoy!
His yellow smiley hat cracked me up :)
Destin: Can we we let it run wide open? Dad: No, go to your room.
Funny
The engine will only run as fast as the points (if it has them) will close or the valves start to float (meaning they don't close). And you run the risk of the connecting rod breaking.
@@acereotero thank you for your input
Honestly had goosebumps watching some of these slow motion clips. I'm so jealous and excited that young people who are interested in mechanics would have such a well explained and visual understanding of what's happening in a carburetor.
I already kinda knew how a carb worked but this was a neat holistic video on the minute details of how each piece interacts to function. I liked that you got to learn it with your Dad- i miss spending time with mine in the garage/shop.
11:50 “i could get hurt?” *Dad:* Naw, u gone tear my engine all to pieces Spoken like a true mechanic
This is also the subtle way to say “it might explode” without freaking people out.. Goes well with “Puts a lota force on that” “Not sure it was designed with that in mind” “It’s fine as long as you know where the relay is”
this video is an exact representation of what it should be like to learn in school. passion for the subject along with clear visual representations. thanks for all the hard work u guys put into your videos!
Many teachers agree! This is AMAZING! The problem is we don't have things like 3d printers and the materials to make these things and help students in this manner. We wish we did! Tax papers can help!
I can barely imagine the effects it would have. So many minds excited about learning.... the synergy it would create and the creativity and improvements that would follow ??
This is how we learned at LeTourneau University. Hands on all the time.
100% agreed!👍👍👍
Books are great, learning in a classroom is fine, presentations is fine.. But first hand insight, and in depth, you can't beat that.
As cool as this video is, and it is super cool to see all the dynamics of a carburetor, it pales in comparison to having the experience with your dad. How awesome for the both of you. Thank you for such wholesome and informative content.
I love how enthusiastic you are about learning new things. Your dad was great. Reminded me of being in the shop, working on cars with my dad.
I can attest, I've met Dad, he's a true gentleman. Love his inputs on this one, great collaboration

@@calsnyder4788 Usually because you want windows software and apple hardware
@@calsnyder4788 cuz he bought an Apple but wanted to run something that’s only available on Windows
I love how Destin’s dad is like, “I love you son but not enough to destroy my tiller”.
Before this was discussed I already thought that I hope he doesn’t mess up the engine because his Dad wouldn’t approve
Perfect comment
He's making enough money on these videos that He can buy his dad a top of the line Tiller & it wouldn't even hurt him.
@@GamingHistorySource you can tell his dad is the type that doesn’t want a new tiller. He wants HIS tiller
@@GamingHistorySource Okay, Dad says, "Son, I don't love you enough to let you destroy my tiller, but I do love you enough not to make you buy me a new one unnecessarily."
I raced outboards across Canada and the USA for 30 years; now my 4 yr old grandson and I are building an acrylic kit I-4 4 stroke engine which reveals all the moving parts. He is absorbing every bit of info that he can see, but the kit does not show the venturi effect within the carb. This wonderful video is going to be my teaching tool for the next generation of family boat racers; the more I watch, the more I learn too, and I've been building racing carbs for decades. My grandson will be miles ahead of me in no time. Thank you!
I've been explaining and have been explained how a carburetor works a lot of times, a LOT and I've never ever had the chance to get this amount of clarity. Thank you and congratulations
"You didn't see the vapour?!" "Boy, I'm looking for fire!"
I’m with Dad!
Spot the engineer haha

Still a Mechanic Been a mechanic over 30 years this video is OUTSTANDING seriously the best you and your dad have a great dynamic between the pair of you and your Dad should be a regular on your videos, brilliant 😊
What a beautiful video this is for so many reasons… from the spectacular super slow motion I could watch for hours to the unbelievable explanation from your father on the 4 stroke vibration in the float bowl (he was right😊) but mostly because of the amazing bond and relationship you have with your father. It bought a tear to my eye on a few occasions. Would be great to see more videos with him in it. The camera likes him!
Good stuff Bud!! Dad's a Badass, he didn't see any vapor, he was lookin' for fire!! Never get tired of seeing the ol' Clear Head in action!!☺

Am i missing something, what brings in the air flow? Simply opening the choke and allowing air in that chamber? I'm just confused on that part because it looks like its sucking in air periodically or mabe thats just the slow mo idk

The second he said “turbulent flow” I knew where he was going. 😆
You know, I thought what I liked best about Destin and his work was his enthusiasm for the subject matter. But I have come to realize that even more than that it's his love: love for his kids, love for his dad, love for other youtube creators, and love for his audience. THAT is what makes a perilous world worth living in!
I grew up working on carbs with my dad and while I understood the basics of the carb, it was awesome to see a see through carb. Great job explaining in detail!
Super impressive. That you created a working see through carb and then got the video to show how it all works is just brilliant. You're right, it is beautiful.
"Try it, we got a fire extinguisher!" - Spoken like a true scientist!
And his dad said no. You do not say no to those who know better than you.

I don't blame him. He just put a new carb on that tiller and doesn't want to also replace the entire engine! Ha ha ha ha!
Dad, let's do this No Pleeeeease No *turns camera off* *explains how patreon money works to buy a new mower and engine* *explains how it's all for science and understanding* *turns camera back on* *revs engine* Both: wheeeeeee
I probably watch this video on a bimonthly basis. It came out when I first started really tearing my motorcycle apart, and it's such a tremendous example of how exactly carburetors work. Now I'm helping my dad out, taking apart his motorcycle with him and tuning it up. Thank you for a wonderful video!
These types of videos are brilliant in two ways. First they are educational and really do a good job of teaching people how things work. Secondly I really love the relationship you have with your father, just a wholesome watch. Thanks so much!
Destin, this was so incredible! I've played with carburetors on dirt bikes for the past 10 years or so. This really helps me understand them much better. Amazing.
Thanks for the kind words
My father is a car mechanic but is really good working on motorcycles one time he brought home ktm 450 and promised he'd give it to me if we fix it together a really good bonding moment in our lives
Kyle, can you take a couple of bikes down to Destin to film a carb with a slide and a EFI down the intake? Just rip the airbox out and see what a 125 carb looks like on the inside with the slide all the way up.
i felt like "oh i know that already" but well, i should watch it anyway then.
Read any service manual with a section on carburetors and you will have a real understanding about carburetors that destin didn't even get close to.
The relationship Destin has with his kids and his dad is what I aspire to. Destin you’re an exceptional human.
Destin's dad, you're great too!
I agree
I’m blessed to have good family
@@smartereveryday we’re blessed you have a good family
@@smartereveryday hey man, give yourself some credit. If your relationships with people are as great, it’s cause you’re an amazing person to be around.
Thank you so much for this video I have been working on carburetors for 30 years and had a good idea of how they worked.. this video helped me to see problems I've had and how to fix them .. I don't know why I could never visualize this process but seeing it opened up my mind and let me see clearly now .. this video just took my carb game to the next level.. I have 2 motors I'm going to work on right now .. I can't thank you enough
This video is amazing. I have very little understanding of mechanical parts. Heck I'm an electrician, trying to rebuild a dirt bike at home. This video really helps me understand how this part operates. The visual understanding of it has increased so much more than any other explanation videos.
Smarter everyday: It might be a harmonic Dad: It's the four stroke mr college man
Then proves it by counting 1,2,3,4 with movement in the bowl corresponding with the movement of the piston.
@@charlesmckinley29 he's Dad is pretty quick to explain out whats happenin
It actually doesn't really match up though, since it would shake twice per intake pulse since every stroke is half a rotation.
Lol
@@agerrgerra1361 It's a single cylinder, so it has a primary and secondary imbalance. The first order is mostly cancelled out by the crank counterweight but the second order happens at the top AND bottom of the stroke and it's from the piston changing linear velocity while the crank's rotational velocity doesn't. TLDR: Dad's four-count is valid, albeit counterintuitive.

I think the best part of this video was the seeming you bond with your dad, I don't have the best relationship with my father but this warmed my heart. Its difficult sometimes to understand them because they grew up in different times but regardless I love my dad.

This video shows, how important the role of father is in family. Thank you for sharing. Glad that yours relationship is so close. More moments like this to you...
"That's a good carburetor." -- Never has there been a higher praise given from father to son.
"I couldn't have held the light better myself" would be a pretty good one as well!
The small things in life are sometimes the most memorable and meaningful.
He's encouraging his son, no matter how old you are we will always be Dads.
MORE DAD!!! He's AWESOME!!! More dad and his FANGERS!!!
I agree, we need more Dad. And have him just bring a random item in and let's dissect it. Would be cool if they went through the engine piece by piece, make a 3d model, and at the end would have a working see through engine that the parts list to build it, for all the screws and gaskets. If you know the show Dr. Stone it would sort of be like that
Destroyed him lol
Absolutely!
a truly unbelievable masterpiece. loved your interaction with your dad and his knowledge. absolutely amazing!
This video taught me two things, and one of them I wasn’t expecting. 1- how important a positive father’s love and wisdom truly is ❤️ 2- how a carburetor actually works 👍 Thanks for the life lessons, fellas.
Son was thinking about the carburetor. Not thinking about what happens when a engine gets over revved up. Internal parts breaking. Engine goes boom. Time to by a new engine.
What a great way to show this. I knew how it worked, but never visualized it correctly. Thank you

Thanks for making the vid! I was wondering in my shed in my backyard this summer and I found this chainsaw that my father had but didn't work for a long time, or didn't run. My dad originally said to just clean the carburetor in which I did but the thing didn't work. We found out it was the fuel filter and so we are currently working on finding a replacement filter (the thing is like 30 if not 40 years old). As we are looking I wondered how did the carburetor works and now I figured out myself with the help of this video. Thanks you so much!
Wonderful video. I've been struggling to wrap my head around how carbs actually work, and this video explains it "clearly"! Thank you!

@@BaltiSean He's talking to his dad... That's just weird
Dad knows what he's doing! This did more for my heart than the carb lesson and I enjoyed the lesson.
This video helped me understand the functioning of small engines better than anything else. Anyone can explain the principle of 4 stroke and even 2 stroke, but carbs have always been magic to me.
"I understand carburetors now!" Dad: ...better *nods proudly*
"I'm gonna put a finger right there" the building block of all engineering
*Fanger
If a thumb can save a life an index can throttle an engine.
ty for this i worked with gardening equipment for a while and clean all my own carbs this really helped me understand it alot better than has been previously explained to me
I've worked on these things for years and never understood these principles this beautifully. Amazing job!
"I'm really worried about back-firing." * chokes it with his hand *
... and had some back-fire if you look closely
You can choke any carb with a hand
The one he’s holding up in the thumbnail REALLY looks like you could choke it, alone, with a box of tissues close by
i love how his father dint say "no" to him wanting to run it at full throttle instead explain what would happen if he did
And then they did.
Yeah, way too dangerous. Hey I know, just put your thumb over it! Alabama Engineering 101.
When I was 16 my parents car was having carburetor issues. Engine was a ford 390 with a Rochester Quadrajet four barrel carb. So I went down to the auto parts store and bought the carburetor rebuild kit for it and proceeded to rebuild the carb. My dad came home from work at noon for lunch and saw the carburetor spread all over the garage floor as I had disassembled it for cleaning and replacement of the various parts. His comment was “You know you have to have that put back together and running to go pick your mom up from work don’t you?”. I said “Yes I know.” And I had it all back together, on the engine and adjusted in time to pick her up. I learned later that this particular type of carburetor was one of the most difficult to work on. 😉 Thanks for the informative video. Keep up the good work!
Never seen anything so wholesome in my life, a dad teaching a son.
That's how I learned so much, boy we are missing this today. Just imagine what this country would be like now
and conversely, a son teaching his dad even more!
I agree, what a great video. HIS dad's so humble and darn proud of his son.. But you can also see how much he loves his dad and also so proud of him. I loved this duo. Very cool, made my day.

So entitled, only care about themselves, don't have a bit of commen sence, don't respect their elders, and can't think for themselves. I'm so glad I grew up when I did, and had parents who taught me EVERYTHING I needed to know.
"I don't want a person that is paid to work on small engines, I want to learn about carburetors from my dad." Got me right in the feels, there.
was reading this just as he said it in the video LOL!! Agree with the feels part!
As an instructor, I will be showing this video to my students to supplement my instruction on combustion engines. This is a great video for so many reasons. What a neat memory to share with your dad too.
Thank you for the knowledge and having fun in the process. it's a magical way to learn something that i do not understand at all.
This father son relationship is amazing. Something I hope to have one day with my kids!
Hope you do
Will you be my dad? I'd love for my relationship with my father to bear even the slightest semblance of theirs.
I'm always listening and supporting I love what I do continue
Yeah, my dad would have been yelling at me for leaving a tool out somewhere
Just teach them everything you know!!! And not the bad but show them the good.
"Did you see it?" "No, I'm looking for fire. " Every july4th with my dad.
LOL... did that include a 'hold my beer and watch this'?
Then I realised that he is Benny Hill.
This is amazing. I've always had a loose understanding of how a 4 stroke combustion engine works, but your video breaks down the huge complexity of the physics behind its operation so clearly. A master-stroke if you'll excuse the pun! Our lives rely so heavily on the operation of this device, but so few take the effort to really explain it, good on you. Can't believe I've only just found this. The slo-mo BTW is freaking brilliant!
Wow... one of the best videos on KZhead!! This will change how I look at small engines during my repairs.
Watching your dad is priceless. He's from the generation of mechanical stuff, and Destin grew up in the world of computers and electronics. The two of you are a wonderful way to understand how our lives have been changed. Watch out for that "Fanger".
One of the best father-son videos I've ever seen! The carburetor is awesome, but doing something like that with your dad is a timeless memory.
Agree, but he shouldn't have put loud music on top of dad voice thou
Agree. My dad was an HVAC service tech. and knew a lot about a lot. We did a lot together and I learned a lot from him (and cherished doing it). I lost him just after getting married over 30 years ago; many days I still ache/yearn to have him to share things like that and help each other with whatever. My kids and pretty much anyone else around me have little interest in what I know/do/learn/discover.
Hi, that was exactly what I was about to write. As a mechanical enthusiast I have loved watching the video but the fact they did that as father and son is the most beautiful thing in it !
19:53 is priceless. And those memories even more...
and we all get to share in it.
Man to watch your video reminds me of when I was a kid and my Dad would teach me. He is no longer around but that joy is infectious. Thank you
I mean it was just *beautiful*. The scenes of the carb working (to the music!), and the sweet and honest interactions. Well done 🙏
Destin: SmarterEveryDay Destin's Dad: Smarter than SmarterEveryDay
Haha!
Well, clearly, he's had more days.
His Father is Amazing ,he know the mixture rich or lean from sound of engine
Made me laugh good haha
