    Blackstone results-comfort level?

    Hmm...I could be wrong, but they look different to me where the metal pump connects to the plastic fitting. The Napa/Oil analyzers pump has a red plastic fitting that appears to be square shaped where the metal pump fits inside of it. The yellow Blackstone fitting looks rounded off where the...

    Blackstone results-comfort level?

    By the way, when using the front view, the Napa pump (link below) looks identical to the Oil Analyzers (Amsoil) pump down to the probe needle, pump fitting and color. I'm betting it's the same maker & probably needs cleaning too...On the other hand, the Blackstone pump does look different from...

    Blackstone results-comfort level?

    Perfect, saaber1, thank you...As you may have read, I posted this question in the wrong thread, but you gave me a response I was looking for...I'll assume the Blackstone is the better of the two since the Amsoil pump apparently needs cleaning. Thanks again.

    Blackstone results-comfort level?

    This is an old thread, but relevant for me...Can anyone confirm the difference(s) between the Blackstone and Oil Analyzers sample pumps ?

    Footage from inside a working engine

    Shannow or anyone: I was wondering if there was anything abnormal or not good about this engine. Are you saying the flame should look different (blue maybe)? BTW, the 2nd youtube.com link is definitely better.

    Footage from inside a working engine

    It's hard to make out what I think I'm seeing. Oh well. Interesting to see either way. I guess the camera is fed through a tiny tube (?), but from where on the engine is it inserted if that's correct?

    Footage from inside a working engine

    For sure...It would be a blur. Check out the 4 o'clock position when the piston goes back down. Looks like a whitish patch. I'm wondering exactly what it is / caused by.

    Thanks Johnny...I didn't know the fire inside was that much. I thought it was a very tiny amount of fire. The 2nd link is a larger picture.
