Modular engine not exhausting?

[Ghost259]

Having some HUGE trouble with the modular engine's exhaust. I have air and fuel, but the exhaust wont exhaust, 0% any ideas? I have tried fluid ports, fluid exhaust pipes, I've even tried pumping it with small and large pumps with no luck.

"exhausting"
turn off infinite fuel?
if it off

when its on it works? but when its off it does not.

It seems like the exhaust manifold is broken.

I've not run into any issues with my setups. Are you sure you have your engine set up correctly and your fuel/air ratios adjusted right? Exhaust number value only shows when the engine is running.

I have fuel, 6 exhaust pipes, 6 air scoops, 4 fuel intakes, it runs beautiful with infinite fuel on? no smoke from the exhaust pipes

Something isn't right with your engine then. From what I can tell "infinite" fuel basically gives you unlimited fuel and air, directly to the engine itself bypassing piping connections entirely. If it's not working without infinite fuel, then you either have something hooked up wrong or your fuel air ratio isn't set right.

can you post a workshop link or some pics?

Sometimes the SW decide that port is blocked, even if it is not, it is really frustrating when making micro vehicles, where every voxel matter
They easiest thing is to make a longer pipe away from creation and add port at the end

Don't the engines only work when they have a single one of Fuel and Air manifolds ?
I think they patched it that way some time after release.

Weird the you have 6 air intakes and 4 fuel intakes. The modular engines don't like multiple air intake on the same cylinder line.

How many cylinders does you engine have and what's the configuration? Flat, radial, in line?

Ive seen some buggy stuff like that with respect to exhaust placement on the modular engines...for me the solution is solved by moving the location of the exhaust manifold to another cylinder even though all cylinders are and were always connected! (bug?) hope it helps.

Double check your fuel and air mix. I had the exact same problem the other day and if your mix is wrong, it won't combust. No combust = no exhaust.

You need to add electric motors

I'm having this issue also.

Ive solved it on mine. The large scoop the fluid intake doesnt work. Changed it to a normal fluid port and it fired straight up.
