Well now the media and TV just thinks we are stupid and tells us what to do an and what is good or bad. I mean you could not expect people to think for them self saying them what to think is way more effektiv this is now true in all media, no matter if commercials, or even News left or right. Its not the peoples that are stupid it is the media manipulating the public in just accepting "universal truths" and this is whats causing or will cause massiv conflict and problems. Im happy to see that now that the media is slowly burning its reputation with those strange moves. Hopefully we get back to more tolerating society where people can think and say what they want. That does not mean that everything they say is correct or good but that is not the point, the point is that people will speak with each other and not just ignoring each other because they have and different political opinion, calling each other stupid, ignorant or what ever . The effect will be the end democracy if we don't stop think in good and evil for the media it is simpler to just tell us what is good it really saves them a lot of work because they can just stay at the surface about every topic. People need to wake up and see that we are ignoring the complexity of things, because no one cares about problems and facts feelings are important now and this will destroy our society in the long run.
@Robert whittle Add the Unions who stuffed the car industry as well, for they were the ones who kept forcing the auto makers to give workers more pay and conditions, including OH & S, until the auto makers couldn't take anymore, closed their factories and pissed off to China, India, wherever, to make cars al cheapo with slave labor and then ship the cars back to us and sold at the market value of our country. Clever, eh? That's why I don't buy American cars made overseas and shipped here. I want jobs here, cars made here and sold here to our population. If they want to export them to other country, so be it but they must be made here. Remember the Japanese cars? Were they made in Japan and exported here? Didn't Japan auto makers then decided to have factories in the US, AU, NZ, etc., to establish a direct manufacturing point and then selling their cars right here and export some in foreign countries, thus giving jobs for all of us? Now they not only have closed their factories and returned home, but export their vehicles directly back to us and we like real stooges buy them with money earned from local jobs. Not really that good isn't it? Now that the American cars are made overseas, thus their slaves work for peanuts and we buy them with the thousands that are hard to get because of limited employment. I am sorry guys if I say we are really stupid because we've lost 50% of American employment, skills and knowledge because of the jobs we no longer do, the skills we no longer learn. If you think working in a warehouse distributing Chinese good is a skillful employment, then you really need to have your brains checked because most of the workforce no longer do hard engineering work like these guys in the video, considering that 95% of products and material is Chinese made. So, it's enough to say we are in a mess and yet you still buy Chinese products? Sad.
@@mickcarson8504 we should be paying those damn U.S. union auto workers $.2,30 per hour. Chevy Cruze is now made in Lordstown, Ohio, a plant soon to be shut down. If we buy cars made in Mexico will we save money due to the poverty wages paid the Mexican workers? Maybe not. CNN business recently investigated a car lot in Lordstown, Ohio, 5 miles from the Cruze plant, and found 1 Chevy Cruze with the VIN tag reading "made in Mexico." That car was on the lot with a number of other Chevy Cruze models. The Mexican one cheaper? Nope. Same price. At first GM denied importing Chevy Cruze from Mexico to the U.S. then admitted they did import at least 8,400 Chevy Cruze from Mexico to the U.S. "How messed up is it that someone in Lordstown could be driving a Mexican-made Cruze?" says Robert Sheridan, another GM worker about to lose his job." Damn those GM workers for expecting to earn enough to have a decent life for their family!
The video is not claiming invention. It's showing off the tall waterjacketing around the cylinders and the high flow in the valve seats. Not saying it wasn't being done before, just claiming to have improved it immensely. That old truck which had all those men piled onto it.... most cars and trucks of that prior era were easier to overheat due to simpler and more comparatively rudimentary cooling passages within their blocks and heads. They'd boil over, causing you to have to pull over onto the side of the road to allow time to cool and top off with the water jug in the trunk. So much so to the point that optical sightglass caps or tubal level indicators were commonplace, and regularly checked. So Chevy was proud of their car pulling a load well above its expected duty without boiling over on them. Even if they overemphasized the feature to the point of gimmickry, it's still a feature of interest, and good info for owners and potential buyers to know, all while holding audience attention for advertising reasons.
It might look the same but the technology is actually a bit different. The entire system is pressurized and doesn't depend on evaporation like the valves do here. They also tended to lose fluid. A modern engine will hold its temperature within a few degrees across the entire engine across a range of conditions. Those old engines wouldn't last long before they had to be completely rebuilt. The result of advances in design is that a modern engine will run well over 100000 miles before it needs to be torn down.
These educational/commercial videos are really good. They make sure even an idiot can follow along. Which is good for me. Lol. This is kind of like the first infomercial.
Knew a guy once who bought a crate engine for his S10, swapped it but didn't bother to change out the exhaust manifold. New manifold didn't fit the existing exhaust so after he finished the swap he drove down to the local muffler shop to get it mated. Couldn't figure out why it ran so hot on the way, but got his new exhaust and drove back home. Didn't make it. He had forgot to put coolant/water in the radiator/system and fried that brand new crate engine like a piece of bacon. Heat Indicator sticker on the engine was pitch black and they didn't let him return it. Oooops! Guess coolant really is important, who knew?
@boostedsil40 Hard to say what the water temp actually was, if it was low enough on water and the sender isnt in contact with water, it will read a lower temp. but its lying, its hotter than fuck. Ive seen that happen quite a few times on generators. A hose lets go, dumps the coolant and runs until it really lets go and blows a headgasket, you hope.. Why didnt the high temp safety shutdown work ? It wasnt in contact with liquid. Avoid that by putting in a low water level sensor in the top tank of the rad.
My brother blew a jeep I6 by running it out of water. When I looked at it for him you could see green spray all under the hood. He said, sorry it's so dirty, I took it to the car wash the other day and cleaned it. I asked him if he knew what that was and he sad he wasn't sure what it was from. I absolutely couldn't believe him. He honestly didn't know it was radiator fluid.
Thats like the family guy skit where its a meeting in a mafia movie and the trumpet keeps getting louder and louder until you can't even hear what they're saying
Wonderful film on so many levels. Not just the technology, but the construction crew and their working and living conditions. The Jam Handy Corporation was so proficient at making these films. Thanks for uploading.

"What have we? a Radiator! A big surface plus air circulation, thats what carries away the heat from the water" Even a child can understand this, what happened to those kinds of videos?
I would guess because nowadays any new advancement they market as a new highly advanced/complicated technology. They would have probably patented the radiator as green coolactive technology or some stupid shit like that.
10:14 It's 1936 and they're using a car to tow a double load up a hill in the middle of summer in a desert. A car. Look outside, it's 2019 and there are people in heavy duty trucks that they "need" for groceries and a bag of potting soil.
Yeah people underestimate the capabilities of his/her vehicle, and vehicles in 2019 have cheap, and underpowered engines. I mean sure, my friend's C5 that had 700hp (single turbo, stock bottom end), yet still has same gas milage as it was before, and can tow double stacked closed trailers full of equipment and racecars. And people said *"OH, YOU CAN'T TOW WITH YOUR CORVETTE"* , hence they spend 70 grand *ALONE* heavy duty truck.
@@paulette_hinai Vehicles in 2019 have cheap, underpowered engines. Uh no. Engines today are so much more powerful than even 30 years ago. A Honda civic today has double the HP of a V6 Chevy C10 pickup truck of 1990. The lowest powered 4 door vehicle you can purchase new today is a Mitsubishi Mirage at 76HP, 4HP less than the Chevrolet Master shown in this video. The Master has an inline 6 3.4L engine vs. the 3 cylinder 1.2L Mirage. That's less than half the displacement and it's not even an advanced engine. A 1.0L engine with advanced tech applied to it could have up to 138HP like that found in the Ford Fiesta Ecoboost.
It’s incredible how many aspects of auto technology have stayed the same over the past 80 years since this was made. I guess if it works there’s no reason to replace it.
It has been subject to continual refinement. Pressurised cooling systems. Mixtures with higher boiling points. Air free circulation within the engine. Overflow bottles so coolant is not lost and doesn't usually need replenishment. Not to mention aluminium engines that transfer heat more rapidly. Electric fans that come on only when needed. Corrosion inhibitors. A great many improvements over the years.
Seeing these old ads that were actually very informative makes me feel like people were much more knowledgeable and could easily grasp new information and/or teach that information to others.
This add was timely for the day beaus their competitor had engine cooling system problems, the Ford V8 could not pull that same hill without overheating.
Chuck Allen yep i don’t know about you but I love the flatty but yeah it had a real Achilles heel with that over heating problem which as you may know was because of it badly placed exhaust ports
walkanshaw2000 shut the engine off and let it coast down the hill. Engine will run very cool. However, best to abandon vehicle before it reaches 90 mph
They're harder to find parts for and require much more maintenance than modern cars. It's not "hard to maintain" per se, but it's definitely a never-ending chore.
Well i got a slant six ram and just retrofited a junk yard catalitic from a crashed F150 just for fun and guest what now is a green truck, it dont pollute any more.
I lesrn more from these basic presentations than a person teaching me how an engine works...if you ask my dad a question, This is how he does it. I love my pops!
I learned basic mechanics as a young teen from an old encyclopedia found at a garage sale. Printed in the '20s (the hundred years ago '20s I just now realized) the encyclopedia had extensive sections on every function of cars of that day. I was reading in the early '70s but the principles remain the same to this day. Other sections on airplanes, generators, basic electrical circuits, gears, and machine tools did a similar job of explaining fundamental mechanical devices in language an inquisitive child could absorb. It strikes me that many of these things were new or relatively new to many Americans at the time that encyclopedia was published and many adults of the day would want to know how to fix their car. Understanding fundamental design and function of any device is a prerequisite to meaningfully diagnosing and repairing a machine. To this day I have not seen an equivalent overall tutorial on how things work though I spent a career in engineering, reading all sorts of training materials. A hundred years ago people repaired things that broke. Today we have been trained to discard and replace anything that fails. Ultimately this is not sustainable behavior. One day the dumps will be full and the mines empty (figuratively speaking, of course). Rather than whine about "the state of the world today" I find myself encouraged by the countless assets on UA-cam that cover the fundamentals of the machines and electronics we use today. There are countless channels devoted to basic mechanical and craftsman skills and an equal number devoted to practical repair techniques. Channels like this one and especially the video above remind me of that early training I received, and while it sounds like a commercial the information it gives is valid. Posted here eight years ago it still gathers views and I all but guarantee some young people have watched it then made a point of checking their car's coolant level (Read the owner's manual for how to check. *Never* open a hot radiator cap.)
@@rawbacon I wish I could recall. I would go buy a copy if I could. It may have been something like "Our World," but that's just a guess and I may be confusing it With "World's Work" magazines I have seen from the same era.
@@Miata822 Maybe "World Book Encyclopedia"? They've been around since 1917, according to Wikipedia they were known for being strong in scientific, technical, and medical subjects. There's some old ones on Archive dot org..........I'm gonna dig thru some of them when I get the chance. Thanks Bill
@@canadagood Yes, for a base level repair technician. When the self-diagnostic software gets it wrong, or a component fails repeatedly, having a fundamental understanding is needed. Recently a technician failed to repair my refrigerator because the part "was not available." Understanding the fundamentals, I was able to find a functionally identical part from a different manufacturer. In business (designing machines) I have encountered too many young engineers who had little hands-on practical understanding of the systems they designed and how they might interact with the outside world. Building a weal kink into one part of a complex system can be the root cause of cascading failures elsewhere. From the mechanic who throws parts at a problem until it is fixed, to the engineer who chooses new components w/o understanding their implications to the overall machine, we see cost and time inefficiencies that could have been avoided with a little background knowledge.
One thing Chevrolet did correctly and Ford did wrong, was placing the inlet of the water pump where the temperature is at its lowest, coming out of the bottom of the radiator. This is also the point of lowest pressure and the lower the pressure the lower the boiling point. On the Ford V8, until 1937, the water pump inlet was at the cylinder heads and the hottest point. Backwards.
No, on a flathead ford v8, the water goes in at the waterpump inlets at the bottom ( there are two waterpumps) and exits thru the head on both sides. They changed the head design over time, 32-48 had a center exit, where the 49-53 had water outlet at the front of the head. The drawback in keeping a flathead v8 cool was 1. The valve train is inside the block 2. The exhaust ports are routed thru the block, and- cylinders 2 and 3, 6 and 7, are siamesed, they share one exhaust port. With modern aluminum radiators, better designed waterpumps, and thermostatically controlled electric fans that move way more air, a flathead can be thermally controlled very well.
@@vladivosdog what don’t you understand? The fact that flatheads have two waterpumps, the valves being in the block- not the heads, or the internally routed exhaust ports in the block with the two center cylinders sharing one exhaust path on each side of the engine?
We all need to be thankful of the progress of engineering to make the gasoline V6 or V8 engines run cooler with now AIR CONDITIONING! Let's all be thankful!
did you watch the video.. they dont run cooler today.. they still like 180f give or take 15 degrees.. and air conditioning really isnt any burden on the engine realistically well under 10hp even if you have the biggest air conditioner they fit to vehicles we squeeze about twice if not 3 times the power out of the same size engine these days and make them about 40% lighter but you could fit a big AC pump to any old engine it wont overheat.. might be even slower then it already was but the cooling system can handle that load all day
@A Gough i was referring to the original comment, but i meant AC might in the worst scenario suck up 10HP, obviously cars then and now have alot more then that.. thats kinda my point that the power AC requires is negligible in the grand scheme of engine heat/cooling, all my modern vehicles are cast iron/steel blocks so i cant comment on if aluminum blocks like more temperature or not
I think it had more relevans back then, when they used mercury in thermometers, so such temperatures would make it explode. Nowadays we use died alcohol.
I honestly learned more about how components work on cars with these old 1930s videos than I do with newer videos. I learned how ICE works, how a transmission works, how cooling works and now I can add to it with the modern features some vehicles have like electric water pumps, DFI and cylinder deactivation.
I love these old Chevrolet commercials. They couldn't fake this back then like they can now which shows you how tough vehicles really were back in the day.
I'm 77 and I've been involved in Horticulture for more than 55 years. Until recent history, humans grew food where they had ample water and could create simple but effective irrigation using gravity. Now with machinery and pumping stations a great deal is done to overcome former obstacles so crops are grown where under natural consequences they could not be, without extraordinary human labour. If you research history and you will see that civilisations collapse when their forestry has been reduced to cutting subsistence firewood and the agriculture is overextended on distant water supplies, all of which conditions we've now fulfilled in the United States. The terrible wildfires in California and other states is testimony to this very grave situation. But even if we're gone in 100 or 200 years, you can be sure that the mountains will remain, and eventually things will come around to a new way of life for whatever and whoever is left. As Dr George Gamow pointed out more than 60 years ago, humans would be much better off to measure the passage of time in 100,000 year blocks, in order to give us an idea of our place in the whole complex of what is.
there is STUFF to be learned, ALL OVER THE INTERNET. just Know/evaluate yer sources, and don't rely on Just one. try surfing wikipedia or britannica.com
The transmission could use a coolant system too in a situation like this. Also, hauling that load down the hill would be a good test of brake engineering and additional transmission overheating issues.
No transmission cooler for a 3-speed manual filled with 90-weight gear grease that only lubricates. Automatics need cooling because of the heat generated in the torque converter, where the fluid is more or less sheared between the turbine vanes. But you’re right about brakes. I wouldn’t want to be in front of anything 1930s going downhill. I remember the brake fade in the mountains in the 60s. They’d get so hot they just lost their friction. You’d see people with smoking brake linings almost out of control on downhill runs.
That’s because 95% of all vehicles back in them days were manual transmissions they don’t need a cooling system they did have automatics but they were very unreliable and I would not pull something with an automatic back of them days most everybody back then could drive a manual transmission you have to if you couldn’t drive a manual transmission you didn’t drive at all. I have a friend that lives in Germany and he’s my age she’s 34 and he’s never driven an automatic in his life he said there are automatics in Europe but most Europeans want a manual transmission because they’re more reliable. Those Americans are very lazy and spoiled most cars you see on the road today here in the United States are hot automatics me I actually drive a car that is a manual transmission for my daily driver also have a pick up truck that’s automatic but I use it to haul things and pull things with
If the car ran at 180 under normal conditions it would certainly increase under extreme load. As long as it stayed under the boiling point it was doing it's job. I can't believe you could go up that hill under load and not have the temperature rise in the engine.
Yes you can. That's what the thermostat does. The thermostat actually adjusts by opening and closing itself by some amount all the time. That's how it regulates the water temperature even as the engine load and outside air temperature change. The cooling system has enough reserve cooling capacity to normally keep the engine well under 180 all the time. But the thermostat adjusts the amount of water circulating in the system. It stays partially closed to raise the temperature up to 180 and hold it there. Then if the engine load or outside air temperature increases the thermostat open more to let more water circulate to hold the temperature at 180. Then if the load goes down the thermostat closes a bit to still keep the temperature at 180.
Oh my... I grew up where that "9 mile hill" part was filmed. It certainly doesn't look like that anymore. I was pleasantly surprised to see that in an old time movie like this.
I hope it's distilled water you are adding. You don't want mineral deposits in your oil. Having no radiator improves fuel economy by at least 200%, so you are doing the right thing. Take that, Prius.
I'm 77 now (2020) and recall Paul Robeson very well. He came to my HS, Bellevue Senior High, I think in 1960. He was in a wheelchair, but he still sang better than any of us could imagine!
No way it would still be 180 towing a double load - it would probably be close to 220 by the time he reached the top, if not overheating...depends on the weight of what he's pulling and how efficient the radiator is. Sure it'd be 180 again after letting it sit for awhile to shed all the extra heat from flooring it just to make it up the hill...I like how they fudge the numbers lol.
The first thing I noticed is how comically big the displacement these example engines are and how little power they produced in practice. We've come a long as way in the better part of a century.

They'd boil over, causing you to have to pull over onto the side of the road to allow time to cool and top off with the water jug in the trunk. So much so to the point that optical sightglass caps or tubal level indicators were commonplace, and regularly checked.
So Chevy was proud of their car pulling a load well above its expected duty without boiling over on them. Even if they overemphasized the feature to the point of gimmickry, it's still a feature of interest, and good info for owners and potential buyers to know, all while holding audience attention for advertising reasons.
Yep. Now the are designing stuff to be broken soon so people can buy again. Sad.
Or stupid ones today.
It might look the same but the technology is actually a bit different. The entire system is pressurized and doesn't depend on evaporation like the valves do here. They also tended to lose fluid. A modern engine will hold its temperature within a few degrees across the entire engine across a range of conditions. Those old engines wouldn't last long before they had to be completely rebuilt. The result of advances in design is that a modern engine will run well over 100000 miles before it needs to be torn down.
Same basic dumbass UA-cam comments are still used today also
These educational/commercial videos are really good. They make sure even an idiot can follow along. Which is good for me. Lol. This is kind of like the first infomercial.

Knew a guy once who bought a crate engine for his S10, swapped it but didn't bother to change out the exhaust manifold. New manifold didn't fit the existing exhaust so after he finished the swap he drove down to the local muffler shop to get it mated. Couldn't figure out why it ran so hot on the way, but got his new exhaust and drove back home. Didn't make it. He had forgot to put coolant/water in the radiator/system and fried that brand new crate engine like a piece of bacon. Heat Indicator sticker on the engine was pitch black and they didn't let him return it. Oooops! Guess coolant really is important, who knew?
...ouch
Well I betcha he never made that mistake again!

Hard to say what the water temp actually was, if it was low enough on water and the sender isnt in contact with water, it will read a lower temp. but its lying, its hotter than fuck.
Ive seen that happen quite a few times on generators.
A hose lets go, dumps the coolant and runs until it really lets go and blows a headgasket, you hope..
Why didnt the high temp safety shutdown work ?
It wasnt in contact with liquid.
Avoid that by putting in a low water level sensor in the top tank of the rad.
My brother blew a jeep I6 by running it out of water. When I looked at it for him you could see green spray all under the hood. He said, sorry it's so dirty, I took it to the car wash the other day and cleaned it. I asked him if he knew what that was and he sad he wasn't sure what it was from. I absolutely couldn't believe him. He honestly didn't know it was radiator fluid.

Uh no. Engines today are so much more powerful than even 30 years ago. A Honda civic today has double the HP of a V6 Chevy C10 pickup truck of 1990. The lowest powered 4 door vehicle you can purchase new today is a Mitsubishi Mirage at 76HP, 4HP less than the Chevrolet Master shown in this video. The Master has an inline 6 3.4L engine vs. the 3 cylinder 1.2L Mirage. That's less than half the displacement and it's not even an advanced engine. A 1.0L engine with advanced tech applied to it could have up to 138HP like that found in the Ford Fiesta Ecoboost.
Do you understand what displacement that cars engine has compared to a truck today lol.
@@joshlockie9285 Similar displacement really. 3.4L engine is the same size as the V6 tacoma or Toyota T100. Tacoma also came in 2.4L and 2.7L.
@WSD333 That's not necessarily true at all. Many reasons to use a trailer.
It’s incredible how many aspects of auto technology have stayed the same over the past 80 years since this was made. I guess if it works there’s no reason to replace it.
Better check with the government on that one!
It has been subject to continual refinement. Pressurised cooling systems. Mixtures with higher boiling points. Air free circulation within the engine. Overflow bottles so coolant is not lost and doesn't usually need replenishment.
Not to mention aluminium engines that transfer heat more rapidly. Electric fans that come on only when needed. Corrosion inhibitors. A great many improvements over the years.

Man , I love all this old commercial videos.
I lesrn more from these basic presentations than a person teaching me how an engine works...if you ask my dad a question, This is how he does it. I love my pops!
I learned basic mechanics as a young teen from an old encyclopedia found at a garage sale. Printed in the '20s (the hundred years ago '20s I just now realized) the encyclopedia had extensive sections on every function of cars of that day. I was reading in the early '70s but the principles remain the same to this day. Other sections on airplanes, generators, basic electrical circuits, gears, and machine tools did a similar job of explaining fundamental mechanical devices in language an inquisitive child could absorb. It strikes me that many of these things were new or relatively new to many Americans at the time that encyclopedia was published and many adults of the day would want to know how to fix their car. Understanding fundamental design and function of any device is a prerequisite to meaningfully diagnosing and repairing a machine.
To this day I have not seen an equivalent overall tutorial on how things work though I spent a career in engineering, reading all sorts of training materials. A hundred years ago people repaired things that broke. Today we have been trained to discard and replace anything that fails. Ultimately this is not sustainable behavior. One day the dumps will be full and the mines empty (figuratively speaking, of course). Rather than whine about "the state of the world today" I find myself encouraged by the countless assets on UA-cam that cover the fundamentals of the machines and electronics we use today. There are countless channels devoted to basic mechanical and craftsman skills and an equal number devoted to practical repair techniques.
Channels like this one and especially the video above remind me of that early training I received, and while it sounds like a commercial the information it gives is valid. Posted here eight years ago it still gathers views and I all but guarantee some young people have watched it then made a point of checking their car's coolant level (Read the owner's manual for how to check. *Never* open a hot radiator cap.)
What year and brand was the encyclopedia?
@@rawbacon I wish I could recall. I would go buy a copy if I could. It may have been something like "Our World," but that's just a guess and I may be confusing it With "World's Work" magazines I have seen from the same era.

Thanks Bill
Nowadays you don't have to understand the underlying concept of how things work. You just have to know which part to remove and replace.
@@canadagood Yes, for a base level repair technician. When the self-diagnostic software gets it wrong, or a component fails repeatedly, having a fundamental understanding is needed. Recently a technician failed to repair my refrigerator because the part "was not available." Understanding the fundamentals, I was able to find a functionally identical part from a different manufacturer.
In business (designing machines) I have encountered too many young engineers who had little hands-on practical understanding of the systems they designed and how they might interact with the outside world. Building a weal kink into one part of a complex system can be the root cause of cascading failures elsewhere.
From the mechanic who throws parts at a problem until it is fixed, to the engineer who chooses new components w/o understanding their implications to the overall machine, we see cost and time inefficiencies that could have been avoided with a little background knowledge.
One thing Chevrolet did correctly and Ford did wrong, was placing the inlet of the water pump where the temperature is at its lowest, coming out of the bottom of the radiator. This is also the point of lowest pressure and the lower the pressure the lower the boiling point. On the Ford V8, until 1937, the water pump inlet was at the cylinder heads and the hottest point. Backwards.
No, on a flathead ford v8, the water goes in at the waterpump inlets at the bottom ( there are two waterpumps) and exits thru the head on both sides. They changed the head design over time, 32-48 had a center exit, where the 49-53 had water outlet at the front of the head. The drawback in keeping a flathead v8 cool was
1. The valve train is inside the block
2. The exhaust ports are routed thru the block, and- cylinders 2 and 3, 6 and 7, are siamesed, they share one exhaust port. With modern aluminum radiators, better designed waterpumps, and thermostatically controlled electric fans that move way more air, a flathead can be thermally controlled very well.
Ford was still on the learning curve when it came to water pumps. A stock Model T didn't even have one.
As Mark K says, the ford flatheads had cooling problems and this film was probably subtly pointing that out.
@@markk3652what? 🗿
@@vladivosdog what don’t you understand? The fact that flatheads have two waterpumps, the valves being in the block- not the heads, or the internally routed exhaust ports in the block with the two center cylinders sharing one exhaust path on each side of the engine?
We all need to be thankful of the progress of engineering to make the gasoline V6 or V8 engines run cooler with now AIR CONDITIONING! Let's all be thankful!
The 300 Ford was a tank.
did you watch the video.. they dont run cooler today.. they still like 180f give or take 15 degrees.. and air conditioning really isnt any burden on the engine realistically well under 10hp even if you have the biggest air conditioner they fit to vehicles
we squeeze about twice if not 3 times the power out of the same size engine these days and make them about 40% lighter but you could fit a big AC pump to any old engine it wont overheat.. might be even slower then it already was but the cooling system can handle that load all day
@A Gough i was referring to the original comment, but i meant AC might in the worst scenario suck up 10HP, obviously cars then and now have alot more then that.. thats kinda my point that the power AC requires is negligible in the grand scheme of engine heat/cooling, all my modern vehicles are cast iron/steel blocks so i cant comment on if aluminum blocks like more temperature or not

I can't imagine trying to force nature to provide essentials like water. Seems to me that living in a wetter region would be an obvious choice.
I'm 77 and I've been involved in Horticulture for more than 55 years. Until recent history, humans grew food where they had ample water and could create simple but effective irrigation using gravity. Now with machinery and pumping stations a great deal is done to overcome former obstacles so crops are grown where under natural consequences they could not be, without extraordinary human labour.
If you research history and you will see that civilisations collapse when their forestry has been reduced to cutting subsistence firewood and the agriculture is overextended on distant water supplies, all of which conditions we've now fulfilled in the United States. The terrible wildfires in California and other states is testimony to this very grave situation. But even if we're gone in 100 or 200 years, you can be sure that the mountains will remain, and eventually things will come around to a new way of life for whatever and whoever is left.
As Dr George Gamow pointed out more than 60 years ago, humans would be much better off to measure the passage of time in 100,000 year blocks, in order to give us an idea of our place in the whole complex of what is.

The transmission could use a coolant system too in a situation like this. Also, hauling that load down the hill would be a good test of brake engineering and additional transmission overheating issues.
No transmission cooler for a 3-speed manual filled with 90-weight gear grease that only lubricates. Automatics need cooling because of the heat generated in the torque converter, where the fluid is more or less sheared between the turbine vanes. But you’re right about brakes. I wouldn’t want to be in front of anything 1930s going downhill. I remember the brake fade in the mountains in the 60s. They’d get so hot they just lost their friction. You’d see people with smoking brake linings almost out of control on downhill runs.
That’s because 95% of all vehicles back in them days were manual transmissions they don’t need a cooling system they did have automatics but they were very unreliable and I would not pull something with an automatic back of them days most everybody back then could drive a manual transmission you have to if you couldn’t drive a manual transmission you didn’t drive at all. I have a friend that lives in Germany and he’s my age she’s 34 and he’s never driven an automatic in his life he said there are automatics in Europe but most Europeans want a manual transmission because they’re more reliable. Those Americans are very lazy and spoiled most cars you see on the road today here in the United States are hot automatics me I actually drive a car that is a manual transmission for my daily driver also have a pick up truck that’s automatic but I use it to haul things and pull things with

Did anyone else notice the trailers rear axle has a differential? There may have been questionable tactics used in that “test”.
Well, it has what looks like one, yet there's no drive shaft, so nothing driving it.
If the car ran at 180 under normal conditions it would certainly increase under extreme load. As long as it stayed under the boiling point it was doing it's job. I can't believe you could go up that hill under load and not have the temperature rise in the engine.
Yes you can. That's what the thermostat does. The thermostat actually adjusts by opening and closing itself by some amount all the time. That's how it regulates the water temperature even as the engine load and outside air temperature change. The cooling system has enough reserve cooling capacity to normally keep the engine well under 180 all the time. But the thermostat adjusts the amount of water circulating in the system. It stays partially closed to raise the temperature up to 180 and hold it there. Then if the engine load or outside air temperature increases the thermostat open more to let more water circulate to hold the temperature at 180. Then if the load goes down the thermostat closes a bit to still keep the temperature at 180.
Oh my... I grew up where that "9 mile hill" part was filmed. It certainly doesn't look like that anymore. I was pleasantly surprised to see that in an old time movie like this.

No way it would still be 180 towing a double load - it would probably be close to 220 by the time he reached the top, if not overheating...depends on the weight of what he's pulling and how efficient the radiator is. Sure it'd be 180 again after letting it sit for awhile to shed all the extra heat from flooring it just to make it up the hill...I like how they fudge the numbers lol.
