This confuses me muchly.

when it comes to kehhlyr you should know not to even bother asking lol,but im intriged too



I got an old pc server from the airport, (dual processor!!!) not very good though, it has 1x133mhz Pentium and 1x266mhz pentium running it. The whole 64mb ram.
It's no good for anything really, but it works (just) on windows 98.
Because vegetable oil is non-conductive there is no reason why it wont work when under oil.

The only parts that wont be under oil are the HDD, cdrom, keyboard mouse and monitor.

The power supplies and everything are gonna be immersed in oil.

Because it *should* work in oil, and oil is brilliant for cooling.
Hence why i'm gonna use a machine that should be in a museum, because if it doesn't work, then all I've done is blown the fuses.

Yes, but then if it doesnt work in the oil, how are you going to clean it up and change the fuses?

So basically your doing it just because it's meant to work so you want to see if it does then?

Yup, boredom does that to people.
A couple years ago we made a self-propelled skateboard out of an old belt sander, because we were bored.
I also mounted an 80cc moped engine onto a pushbike once as well and ran that on an AVgas mix. 60mph+ and NOT being able to keep the front wheel on the ground is pretty scary stuff.
