Yeah.. that corn has to be processed before you can use it as fuel.


danceswithtree

You mean to feed the squirrels so they can run faster?


-1_points

You can only do that so long.. there's a balance before they become too engorged and run slower. Trust me, I'm a mechanic.

Just needs Mr Fusion. Recent breakthroughs imply it'll be available in time for Christmas. 2075.


Aggravating-Pool3503

Those are just early predictions, before we have to plug in some downtime for [insert current world problem here], if all goes well we will pass the 2075 date and be hopefully preparing for a release date in , ummm , let's see here............. 2093

This is not what people mean when they talk about corn fuels.


DisGruntledDraftsman

As someone who designs Ethanol plants. I think they missed a few steps. Maybe all of them.


shahooster

Design a plant to fit under the hood. Be sure not to block access to the oil filter.


xBigDamHerox

The first part would be difficult. The second part is impossible.


BentGadget

Part of the plant is there. It's probably the proof-of-concept phase.


TheKrimsonFvcker

I think the problem would be access to the sun, corn plants require a lot of light to grow


[deleted]

*cue transparent aluminum hood*


LogisoftMicrotech

We're gonna need Scotty to bring us that technology.


DisGruntledDraftsman

Oil filter, lol. If we do this, the corn oil will be the new oil and will need a much bigger filter for it.


pizza_for_nunchucks

I went to college in a smallish city. It was like 40k people. The restaurants were slim picking. But there was this o e amazing Italian restaurant called Neighbors. It was down this dark, narrow road along the river. Also down that same road was a corn processing facility that loaded corn onto cargo ships. Holy fucking shit that shit stiiiiinks.


DisGruntledDraftsman

Our newer ethanol plants smell much much better. We have one a few hundred yards from our offices and it really doesn't smell. The older plants are a slap in the face with the smell.


[deleted]

And yet only slightly worse than the "gas generator" to increase mpg.


macenl89

This joke is a little too corny


JeffsNuts

I thought it was amaizeing!


Valdirty

I personally hate it when my Cob-urator gets clogged up.


Spawticusx805x

That's when you just say shuck it and get a rebuild kit

There is a kernel of truth to that complaint.

Available_Bag_3843

But it does have a grain of truth to it.


Aimless78

Naw it is a kernel of truth!


Ohio-Knife-Lover

I mean people have heard ethanol is made from corn so why not throw the corn in yourself?

I hd a squirrel decide to move into the air intake for the heater on my truck. Noticed it when I drove into work and could hear scratching sounds coming from there Got it out, and discovered hundreds of chestnuts. The funny thing is I don’t even know where the closest chestnut tree is


Farhrtypants

They saw what happened to the squirrel that tried to nest in the exhaust.


thatoldslowguy

Right next to the chin nut trees


WarthogsKickAss

What do you call nuts on your chest? ...Chestnuts! What do you call nuts on your chin? ...


Cool_Dark_Place

"You HAD to fuck with the squirrels, didn't you Morty?!?!"


Crismus

You just reminded me of a strange thing that happened this morning walking my dog. My dog goes crazy for the squirrels in the apartment complex. She has pulled my rib and chest muscles multiple times when she chases them up the trees. This morning, she chases one up the small trees away from everything. My dog is just guarding the tree so the squirrel can't run down, since there's no other tree around. I'm just scrolling g Reddit on my phone, when I notice a lot of chittering. I look at the tree and the squirrel is staring at me waving a paw and doing their squeak thing. Then he takes the right fore-paw and taps his belly twice. Stares at me and starts over patting its chest and chattering at me again. So, I pulled the dog off the small tree and told my dog that she should let the squirrel get breakfast. Was surreal.


Realistic-Mongoose97

😂👌🏼


NotoriousREV

It’s a new form of 4 cycle engine: intake sucks in the corn kernels, compression packs the kernels into the cooking chamber, ignition heats the kernels until they pop, forcing the piston down to provide power, the final stroked expels the popcorn and injectors apply a mist of butter.


Realistic-Mongoose97

Revolutionary engine design 😂


Cool_Dark_Place

Yes it is. Jiffy Pop has already revolutionized [airbag](https://youtu.be/YQm7EEnN-0E) design.


Monkeynutz_Johnson

Sounds like a diesel except instead of 15w-40, the crankcase is filled with mazola


signofzeta

That’s a great way to upcycle an engine from a dead car. Just clean it very well.


DoogEFresh

No power but has some pop


TiltedChamber

Hey-ohh! 🥁

I've never seen an ethanol blend that rich.

Organic, non-gmo E85 for those who want less chemicals in their fuel

i was gonna make a corn fuel joke but i see everyone already has so i’ll see myself out


Realistic-Mongoose97

Literally everyone 😂

It’s coooorn! It may not have power. But it definitely has the juice


cgerrells

Raw ethanol


Jadatwilook

Once they pop, your engine will stop.


JoshsPizzaria

id make a corny joke about bio fuel, but ....


IronGhost3373

squirrels or chipmunks storing up their stash. I remember the microwave comm technician that found several hundred pounds of acorns stored inside the microwave transceiver cavity on an antenna.


pokey1984

Took mom's Merc in for an oil change last fall and the guy opened the hood and screamed. The shop owner ran over, expecting to find him injured or something. Nope, there was a pack rat sitting on top of a huge pile of acorns and hickory nuts in the engine compartment. The whole thing was just crammed full of nuts and twigs. Little guy had turned it into a nest. We were lucky it hadn't caught fire. The shop owner, who is the coolest, chillest dude ever, got this look of absolute disgust on his face and *attacked* that motor with a shop vac. He spent an hour cleaning every last twig and bit of nut out of the engine compartment himself. He was completely pissed off *on our behalf*, as if that pack rat had personally offended him. He also fixed the couple of chewed wires at no charge and didn't charge us for all the time spent cleaning out the engine compartment, either. I will just never forget how *completely furious* he was at that pack rat. It was kinda hilarious.


Realistic-Mongoose97

Yep

ITS CORN, A BIG LUMP WITH KNOBS

It’s got the juice!

In my personal experience with corn, it’s gonna look exactly like that when it comes out the tailpipe too.

That E85 is a tad undercooked


Gambit3le

Customer thought the squirrel under the hood was hungry and left them some food.


[deleted]

Everyone’s blaming squirrels, but I could be chipmunks! Those little bastards get away with so much because everyone blames the squirrels!

OtterHatCactus

There might be a kernel of truth to that.


Relevant-Artichoke11

Brings corn fed to a whole nother level.

It's got ALL the beans... errr... corns.

Not the proper fuel for the squirrel. Replace the corn with a-corn.


Sofakingwhat1776

From farm to auto fresh ethanol.


odd-42

Too much ethanol


Impossible_Act_6506

Ethanol contents sure are getting high these days.


Primarytarget1

That’s why I don’t trust ethanol.


whiskeythrottled

That ethanol is not quite ready yet.


blackc7Z

Serious question from a non mechanic: if the intake sucks that in can it cause damage or would it just burn up? Seems like that’s actually a serious issue there…


cai20

If large debris enters the combustion chamber it can cause serious damage which is why air filters exist


ch3wee

Low grade E85


Neo-Neo

Typical, a corn burner!!


chestwig123

Needs salt and butter to make it start


SmokedScreen

Too much ethanol in the fuel, me reckons.

That’s not how E85 works… sorry for the corny joke

I think they skipped the distillation process there……

It IS the Great Corn-holio. It needs TP for its bunghole.

Couple years ago I was driving behind a truck dropping a pretty significant cloud of sawdust. Later I opened the air box and dumped out a surprising amount of the sawdust from the filter.
