Oliver Simões Nov 17, 2021:
Gapped out Nick, in my understanding "out" is in the sense of "to the full or a great extent or degree" (see def. 3c in Merriam-Webster): https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/out In the video, the guy refers to the gap being "too wide", which seems to be another way of saying "gapped out".
Mario Freitas Nov 16, 2021:
@ Nick My doubt here is if the term refers to a physical gap (which would indeed be a "folga", as you suggested), or to a malfunction, which would be a "lacuna" or "falha". But without context, we can't tell, really.
Nick Taylor Nov 16, 2021:
@ et al I have my doubts....American English has the propensity to spinkle prepositions like nonpareils....so maybe gapped OUT has another meaning...ho-hum :-)

agree Oliver Simões : Folga excessiva na embreagem do compressor de um condicionador de ar automotivo. Uma vez feito o ajuste, o compressor começou a funcionar. https://youtu.be/Hqp9IJ2ivl4
