- Pat Mackin explains how a Fairbanks Morse engine is started. He also shares a story about how this 6,000 lb engine was acquired and was moved from a gold mine in Wickenburg, Arizona to Prescott, Arizona. Pat will show how much patience it takes to crank start the donkey engine, which will pump air to the Fairbanks Morse engine. This 10-1/2" Bore, 18" Stroke engine was built July 6, 1899. It was recovered from the Gold Bar Mine, Wickenburg, AZ.

Well done! Persistents pays off.
Glad to see people still are keeping to old stuff to show the younger generations .
Love ya work!!!
I love it.
When I was a kid (60,s ) my uncle had a saw on a skid run by a hit n miss . We cut a lot of fire wood with that thing.
Like music to my ears.
Thank you very much.!!!
THis will be on my bucket list Sir. Nice work and video too.
Truly appreciate your comment. It means a lot to us. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for showing us all. @@CarzPlus
Pat was a huge part of my life as a young man at the AG&SEM IN San Diego CA. Hope he is well!!!
Awesome video of Pat and his 22 he Fairbanks Morse. Thank you for posting!
Our pleasure! We're so glad you enjoyed it. This was done to preserve a memory and to help anyone who would be interested in operating this amazing machinery.
Beautiful engine. Amazing startup process, and I love hearing your explanation and the story of how you got it and helped the museum get their other engines moved.
Thank you! It was a great pleasure to be there with Pat when he narrated the video with us. It was a moment that we were happy to preserve. Thanks for watching!
Very interesting 👍 that was cool 😎 to see what it takes to get it running 🤠
Thank you so very much! One of our favorite videos and we enjoyed every aspect of producing it. Thanks for watching!
I've never seen Pat without his hard hat. Enjoyed his engines running at the Sharlot Hall Museum down the street from my house.
That is such a neat scene, isn't it? The sight, sound and smells... It was a pleasure to work with Pat when we recorded his interview and to learn the story behind this amazing engine. Thanks for watching; it's good to hear from a fellow Prescottonian.
Speaking of Prescott Arizona gold mines, I have a Venn Severin 9 hp hot head oil engine that came from that area. Her name is Annie, well deserved name, treat her with respect and she will be nice to you. She also pumped water out of the gold mine. She came to Michigan in the mid 60's well worn out, she has been rebuilt, alive, and ready to play. Just imagine how small the world is. 🤔
Yes, it's a small world and it's good to see that yours has been restored, too. Poland, McCabe, Silver Belt, Little Jessie, Henrietta/Big Bug, Blue Bell, Boggs/Iron Queen, and Iron King are some of the mines that were in the area. By chance did she come from any of those?
great story on this amazing Engine
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your kind words and for watching.
I wish my buddy Bill was still alive to see this beauty. He loved old engines more than he loved his wife, and although he had dreams of a larger engine, the largest he had was a 15 hp Japanese beauty.
That is a great old Fairbanks, and I enjoyed listening to you going through your startup procedure.
I have a couple of 1 1/2 engines, and my prize, a 30/40 hp Easthope Marine engine, made in Vancouver Canada.
I know you are well experienced, but Bill had three pins in the thumb of his cranking hand.
Thank you for sharing your comments and your story about Bill. This is a great contribution to our comments section on this video. Thanks for watching our video. Good to hear that you enjoyed it.

I wanna get my hands on an old engine like that so bad

What a great video and story! I'm from Ohio and I can't wait for OVAMS!!! That's our local Ohio valley antique machine show! It's next week august 11-14th.
I moved here 6 years ago, glad to find this comment!!! I probably never would have heard about it otherwise. Its only 1.5 hours from me. Probably can't afford the trip this year, but hopefully I can plan for next year!
Thank you for this info!!
So cool! Have fun! Thanks for watching!
You're very welcome. I'm sue PAAC is already planning for next year. Thanks for watching!

Thank you, what a nice comment! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
Good on you old timer!

Poetry in motion
Thanks for posting. This incredible machine is always a draw at the annual PAAC car show. Always the first weekend in August. This year it's August 6-7.
Hey Pat! See you in a couple weeks at the show.
Okay, and mention that Carz Plus sent you. Thanks for watching!
I sure hope this rig is at Watson lake next weekend! Gonna mosey down to Prescott and see.
We didn't make it to the event this year. Hope you got the chance to see it. Thanks for watching!
@@CarzPlus Yes, I did! Very cool!
I would sell a kidney for that International Truck!
I'm sure it would be worth it. Well, yeah, we get it. Thanks! Thanks for watching.
Speed it up grandpa. My lunch break is almost over.
Sorry about that. Pat is an old timer and this video was filmed with the local old engine enthusiasts in mind. Pat is one of the founders of the Prescott Antique Auto Club. Although the video moves along slowly for some, the ultimate achievement was to show this antique engine in motion with a reasonable amount of video footage. Hopefully a future apprentice will find the video useful. We also hope the video will build a lasting memory to this day and many months and years to come.
He's moving at the speed of greatness, thats as fast as he needs to go
l love that truckI
Always been a favorite of ours, too. Thanks for watching!
What is it used for.I took a picture of it along time ago back in Prescott Arizona
It was originally used for pumping water out of a mine in the Wickenburg area. Pat Mackin's display at the annual Prescott Antique Auto Club is a tradition. You can see it and other hit and miss in this video: ua-cam.com/video/4fjpOs-PtXw/v-deo.html
why that kind of ood machines pumps just one time while 3 to 4 moves? Is there just one ignition per 4 rounds? Anyway,i would like to understand the technik of that beautiful maschines.
If you do a Google search using the words, 1899 Fairbanks Morse 22 HP engine, you will find several articles on Fairbanks Morse engines. The engine does date back to 1899 and was typical for the technology of the time. You may find information about old engines by visiting museums. Prescott Antique Auto Club holds a car show and old engine display the first weekend in August. This year it will be August 5-6. Keep an eye out for activities like this in your area. Thanks for watching!
Sir, where does this event/show take place?
Watson Lake, Prescott AZ. Always the first weekend in August. This year it's August 6-7, 2022 www.paacaz.com You asked just in time. Thanks for watching!
@@CarzPlus I will make it there some time in future. Thanks for the info. Awesome folks and wonderful machines! Respect!
@@AnandKrishnanPuravangara Thank you so much. Do mark your calendar. All machines on display, including this one, at the show are a treasure and fun to watch. Hope you make it.
At some point, maybe a week before, the engine owner was invited to the meet, would it not have been appropriate to grease/lube up then? Or is it for the show???
That's a good question! Pat is a charter member of PAAC and each year his Fairbanks Morse engine is one of the main attractions. Part of what we see here and everyone seems to appreciate, is all of the steps it takes to get this machine going. The man wearing the hat and white T-shirt is an apprentice. I shot this video spontaneously, edited it and then drove to Pat's house to record the interview with him and David while the two of them viewed the video on the monitor. We hope that everyone watching this video will find it informative and useful. We found it a pleasure to share the historic aspect. Thanks for watching and writing. ~Trish
they should really put screens around those fly wheels
Thanks for the input. Not sure how that would work with the demo. That would be up to Pat and those who host the show.
Nope, beauty before safety.
If you haven't the sense to stay back from something like that spinning then that's on you
Get a life
