Good God!

It's a broken prop?

Is there some detail available, is it a bike engine?

What caused the failure?

Is there a lesson to be learned?

John, search on previous threads with woodster. its all to do with spd, best you read up about that bit as opposed ot us explaining it.

it is a bike engine and that is supposed to be a prop adapter! the car never passed sva as was ringed , then sold and then this happened on track! - [allegedly]

That is shocking! No wonder they are selling up and jumping country.


Ferg - 27/2/04 at 06:48 PM

I'm amazed that any engineer would feel that the other end of the 'adaptor' doesn't require support before the UJ.....


MikeR - 28/2/04 at 02:28 AM

Nice to allegedly see everyone allegedly saying that something may have alledgedly happened, alledgedly!

By the way, I didn't alledge that at all!

That pic says it all......
Lessons to be learned here gents.
In critical applications the best way is to go to someone like Chris Allison @Z cars who has had all the testing and finding out wot works an wot does not. Looking at that lump of iron hanging on the end of the a shaft designed to hold a sprocket no wonder it failed. We had a shaft fail on a honda quad with 35 hp.....what can a hundred plus do.

didn't realise there were prop pics on engines and trans ...... could someone email them to me could be useful ..... cheers

Oh!!!!

I've just come from a U2U message from woodster via the "Sexuality" thread and think I know how to resolve this.

1) Reattach shaft to gearbox using adequate supports and retainers.
2) Disconnect other end.
3) Insert other end into rectum of proprietor of an obviously un named kit car company.
4) Start engine.
5) Engage 6th gear.
6) Accelerate to 12000 rpm.
7) Let out clutch.

I've not done the calculations for total power output, but would suggest that there may be loses due to friction, particularly if allowed to run dry at the RING!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOCH

Some People Do.
