CHEAP BLOWERS
John, Where in the world did you get that picture? That looks like something that a person from Jersey would do. Lol. My question is, what happens when you run out of extension cord? Or, is there a power inverter built into the electrical system? Unless that thing is a two-stroke engine. I can just imagine pulling up to the gas station now. Popping the hood, not to chekc the oil but to fill the blower tank. Lol.

Hey guys you have to give him credit for trying!!! I found the picture on a vintage mustang site they were making fun of him for it so I thought we over here should have a laugh over it too. Jake I think its something from texas maybe Brad could help us out on that. John

Lol! I guess back in the 70's people were using those Con-Air hair dryers as "Cheap Blowers". I guess that if you have nothing better to do, and you have some hose clamps and extra radiator hose, why not try it. Reguardless if it was something serious or something just for laughs. I bet it might actually do something in the garage. The road would be tough if you do not have enough extension cord. Lol. Jake.

Some of those electric leaf blowers are supposed to put out 100-mile-per-hour wind. I wonder how that compares to a proper blower. Anyway, if it packs more air into the engine it should work, but likely would get laughs regardless.

I wonder what the compression strength would be on those blowers? Would they speed up like a vacuum cleaner or would they bog like something was blocking it?
This actually sounds like something that someone should try just for the hell of it. To actually see if anything would happen.
Any takers?

Daywalker, I agree. If you are going to get a power inverter, I can think of better things to plug in to it.
