    Thanks for posting this vidoe this is great!!! It's very similar to the 150 HP 1915 one we have at Kelham Island museum which worked at George Clarks steelworks on Penistone Rd in Sheffield till 1970 . I remember when It ran on gas but sadly no more, I think It was due to a leakage in the cooling jacket so the cylinder head was over-heating It's now run on an electric motor but still requires compressed air to turn It over It's great to see another fine example of a Crossley engine.

    Somehow I never knew Crossley made engines this big.
    What is the rated HP, dimensions, and age?

    WHAT is the H.P. of this engine and what fuel is used ???

    Love the watering can hung from the purlins.. Fuel or lube oil?.. Bit heavy with the easy start too..

    • @EngineVids
      @EngineVids  9 місяців тому

      I think its fuel, the engine had a leak so he used the easystart just to start it for the visitors.

    What a machine! Lovely sound. I am curious if it was operating at its normal rated speed, or if the speed was reduced for the demonstration? How fast was id designed to run under working load?

    • @EngineVids
      @EngineVids  8 місяців тому

      Im not sure about the speed unfortunately, i will try and check when im next there and update the description 😎

    It sounds like a 4 stroke engine, only steam applied every second stroke?

    • @EngineVids
      @EngineVids  11 місяців тому +2

      Hi, it's a 4 stroke diesel. It uses compressed air to turn the engine over, once its spinning the diesel is ignited and runs like a normal diesel engine 😎.

      @@EngineVids Thanks! Haha. Don't know why but assumed a steam engine, likely due to the heavy fly wheel.
