    Yeehaw! Many happy babbits!
    What a joy... it lives! Exhaust falling over hardly matters. Throttle control seems super sensitive... as you showed.
    That was exciting :-)
    Great result.

      very touchy gas valve. I might fine tune it later, but it is good enough now if you're careful.

      @@rpennybrown it's a diamond valve, works decently for throttling once the engineer knows what he's doing! I've gotten this engine pretty well figured out at this point.

    Great to see it running ! Looks as though your Babbit Pouring operation was a big success , no loose bearing rattle to be heard anywhere !

    • @themadmailler
      @themadmailler  7 років тому +4

      thanks! If i put my ear to the bearings, i can hear a slight "click" as the bearing loads and unloads. Just about perfect as far as i'm concerned. There's always shims to remove too.

    That was cool. I had never been exposed to these engines in my youth. Bet your bottom dollar I would have been deep into these if things had been different. I had all sorts of engines apart and back together.... and to run again, all but a twin Onan that sat exposed to the elements to long but sure was fun tearing it to bits.

    ARTISTRY ON VIDEO - to you blokes and generations before. In the early 80's in a country town, my service club got a 1920's tractor restarted after weeks of sourcing tyres (English spelling) from farmers as well as a few weeks of constant lubricant soaking before start date. Worked within say 30 seconds on first try. It was part of our town's yearly parade that year. Preserve, preserve.

  • @ryelor123
    @ryelor123 6 років тому +5

    Good video. Its clear that you're being honest when you say that this is the first start in all those years. Its annoying how lots of people on UA-cam with old engines claim that the engine "hasn't started in X years" only for the engine to start up like it ran 5 minutes before. You can tell that those people are just lying since almost nothing starts up on the first try after a few years.

    • @themadmailler

      and they are builted to survive hell
      but the thing that makes them rare is the fact that theres not many left
      due to the great wars the metal in them were invaluable so most were taken and scrapped out for their metals
      or thats what i would assume
      but the things are quite neat

Not half as much fun as this, this has to be one of the best start up vids I have seen you put it all in warts and all goodonya . I take it that this engine was made to be bolted down and not a mobile due to the very bad balance or is this due to some component missing.

    If you put your fingers over the intake there while you are trying to find the sweetspot; then you can immediately go back to the previous setting and make the necessary mechanical adjustment without risk of stalling. Just like any other combustion motor.
