This is the best old engine video on UA-cam, by far. No talking, no ridiculous music, just the beauty of the machine. All these other guys could take lessons from your perfectly classic style. Thanks, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute.
There is something so relaxing about the sound of these 'heavy breathing' engines - no frantic noises, no whirring, clattering or banging - just the clop-clop of the machine which take a deep breath every now and then.
As a mechanic I see/hear all the slop in those rusty old fulcrums and bushings and all...and I want to just tear into it and make it all better....but at the same time I really love the symphony of racket and how fault-tolerant it is. I've watched this video probably dozens of times over the years and it never gets old. Thanks!
You fix one thing on something that old and you have to over haul another thing and another otherwise it wouldn't run right! That's the beauty of it, the wear is consistent in a way this old bird runs just fine (for now) lol
Something ive wanted to see. These only types of machines being made with todays precision. How powerful and smooth they'd be. Or how difficult it would be to operate now that everything is so tight
@@animalproductions3188 would be good with better tolerences if we keep it a low stress engine These things produce so little power compared to their size, the wear is close to nothing because of that With today's tech (like proper oiling, it hurts seing these vavles being pushed with 0 lubrification whatsoever)
Worked on one before. Ad to make the bearings. To keep snow flakes at bay I will not tell what we made them from. I was 8 years old and thought it was better than a new car.

@@xVoidCypher Really low RPM, with all the torque. It also doesn't fire every time, only firing when it needs to go faster. That sneezing sound is the exhaust pulse from when it does fire.
Well it is a hit and miss engine - meaning it only fires every so often to keep the engine at a set speed. When there's no load, they're incredibly efficient and quiet, since all the movement is coming purely from the flywheel.
I remember one of these from when I was kid ... in Northern Rhodesia 1953 on a tobacco farm ... ran a generator for the curing barn lighting and main house ! It was still in service in the late 1970's ...
It’s amazing how it still works, clearly without being rebuilt. The slop in some of those parts is baffling but still doesn’t pose a problem. What an awesome machine!
I use to date this older woman back when I was 19. She use to make the same noises and required similar maintenance. She reminded me of the great depression. I can still smell her if I close my eyes. What a woman
That engine is a work of art. It is beautiful in its simplicity. The valve action and intermittent cam actuation suggest that it has characteristics similar to the 'hit and miss' engines.
If you're sitting on a folding chair chillin' next to one with your feet on the spokes of the transporter wheel your heart beat actually slows to match the beat of the engine!
Nobody told the old girl she’s got about 25 things worn out on her and she’d never run again. I feel fortunate to have seen this. Thanks very much for posting.
Damned amazing. There is so much precise mechanical integration - from external cams that "by the grease of God go forth..." to the oil drip nozzle keeping the piston wet, the thing is marvelous.
Great video! I love all the detailed close-up shots and the way you captured all of the action and didn't race around. Took your time and let us see each part working. Two thumbs-up if I could.
Thankyou for your feedback, glad you liked the vid. I made an effort to film the working parts in detail to show how it all runs, these engines are great to see running.
***** Nice to see that it still runs after all it's been through. Robust was the name of the game back in the era when this was built. I'd love to see and hear what it was like when working under a heavy load.
Dominico97 The sound of modern engines is mostly constant noises without discernable beats, like wind. A lot of organic sounds (crickets, birds, dogs, etc...) start and stop. Sorry if my word choice doesn't compute for you. The syncopation is obvious in this engine, but to get you started: syncopation is the combination of off beats combined with regular beats, at which this engine excels. The "off" beats are very off, more than you would typically find in music, but along the same lines. This engine is more reggae than swing for that reason. I hope you recognize that even if I'm wrong or hyperbolic, it doesn't really matter. What does matter is good manners.
These old engines are so fun to watch. Most of their moving parts are exposed so you can actually see and hear how they work. Not how modern combustion engines are - all neatly tucked away in enclosures.
Sean Place if a modern car engine was like this you would be sat on top of a car as big as a tank and would need ear protection and a good hour to get the thing going and greased oiled and fired up these are good engines to look at and be models but now days the way they're made are more efficient and give out much less harmful gasses
depends how complicated your engine ignition or fuel pump is really a mech fuel pump and and distributor for ignition would mean the car would be fine .. modern cars with computers would probably still run but would be going crazy like winder wipers going on and only 3 cylinders firing ... but if your talking like a engine like this one then a modern day engine made like this with one cylinder would probably have a simple ignition and still run .........
wtf?! my bro had 4k video 10 years ago, there are bigger channels that still record all in 720p. Props to you my man, this video was amazing in every detail.
Made in Stamford UK originally & exported all over the world for pumping running sawmills, generators & all manner of things! Wonderful sound and good to see and hear one running again!
Its interesting to see where these engines end up, some are found in abandoned mining sites in remote, rugged country in the Australian outback most likely hauled in by teams of horses originally.
Kristoffer Lilja Unintentionally :-) This area was a strong hold of engineering from the 1800s onward but sadly as with many such enterprises it is in serious decline. The company I worked for employed over 300 people locally in the 1980's buy now less then 300.
Kristoffer Lilja Yes, because at the time they were quality! The very fact that this one has stood outside in all weathers for probably a hundred years yet is still working proves that point. In their day there were few engines around with such robust capability combined with a basic, easy to understand and repair structure. Perhaps you might quantify 'quality' in a machine such as this if it allowed you to work safely in a mine, or easily in a factory of some kind. A quality machine does not have to be all bright and shiny, modern, fashionable or electronic it merely has to work efficiently, as cheaply as possible for as long as possible.
These old engines are a real work of art, and great for teaching engineering. It's so sad to think that so many have fallen to neglect or just been discarded. I'd love to have one, or a an old Lister or something, though I have no idea where to look for them.
Now we can understand why OILER was an actual occupation, even up until the 1970's; these old engines just kept ON running. Thank you for sharing this quality vid, brother. Sounds like a symphony : ) What a real piece of history!
Lawrence Lentini That's not how that works. The formula for torque doesn't involve horsepower and rpm. Idk how you could have even gotten 9000 from 10 and 70 anyway. Torque is force at a distance, and we don't even have the information required to figure out the torque of this engine.
𖥠 ꧁Æ♱ℍᴲᮄℜᴲⅅ꧂𖥠 you’re talking about static torque. Lawrence is referring to dynamic torque. Here’s a cool article to read www.caranddriver.com/news/horsepower-vs-torque-whats-the-difference. Also idk what units he’s using, but 10hp at 70 rpm is 750lbft
Holy smokes you can literally hear it breathing to life! Don't make them like they used to. Very simple and yet robust. That's good engineering. Thanks for sharing!
my uncle collects these engines and restores them back to original and has won countless shows with them they look really cool when there painted up with all the gauges on in brass.
Lots of old engines need oilers/wipers in constant attendance, lubing & wiping clean. Simply can't afford that nowadays, but then modern engines keep their bits that need to be kept clean & lubed under cover. Imagine long-term running of an engine like this Blackstone, in the "Dust Bowl" or the SW! Good Luck!
+Jacques Blaque The oil wicks would take quite a while to use the oil in the boxes. It would probably only need topping up a few mm every half an hour.
I remember watching this video in my childhood and just loving the way it sounded, I come back now and it sounds as good as the day I first saw it. I've probably watched this video 30 times over the years
Lucian Ene back then machines were relatively simple and operated at low rpm's so engines back then were never put under lots of stress so they rarely broke down.

+Jakeeeeyyyy The valve that rocks/oscillates that is on top of the hot bulb is a timing valve to prevent pre combustion of the vapour. The other conventional looking valve on top is an air valve.

Нефтяной двигатель, полудизель, чих - пых. Творение на заре нефтепеработки. Работало на всем, всеядная машина. Ни каких тебе лёгких фракций, только хард кор прямо из нефтяной вышки 💪😄
I recall My dads mill engine operating in 1950. The engine was 1910-1912 black stone single piston 18-24 HP and feel gratification when I see that engine rumbling and get amazing satisfaction to see the past alive!!
If u think u funny then just go back where it shows the exhaust fume coming out! I am sure burning basic type oils in its days were no more harmful to nature, inc. creatures like you, then some exhaust fumes of today's engines, however stringent they make it. But it is educational and entertaining!
Someone blew up the cylinder with explosives, then it was flooded, then buried and a lot of parts are worn out, but it still works. That is amazing engineering and build quality.
@Scott Heslin Hey, thanks brah...She's 80 so she wants to thank you for tossing her salad "every night"...It's tough, at that age, to do a thorough job back there... YOU GO GIRL!
Morgan Ruegsegger kero is number 1 Diesel and heating oil number 2 Definitely not the same when it gets cold out. Kero is more refined with a lower wax content and higher btu output
Re watching your video again, almost the same starting principle as the Lanz Bulldog farm tractor. Preheat the hot bulb and throw the flywheel into the compression, (Some Lanz tractors you had to put the steering wheel on the crank to give it a swing) and hope it starts in the correct direction as the Lanz was a two stroke diesel engine.
Actually its 437 ft-lb of torque. If you time the RPM from the video you get 120 RPM and for 10 HP for HP=torque * RPM/5252 and so we quickly learned that you could double the area of the piston or double the RPM to get double the HP. Hence the move from the large piston slow speed steam engines with walking beams the size of buildings to high RPM machines. The advanced Porter-Allen engine versus the early Watt steam engines.
I will acquire one of these engines for the upcoming apocalypse. With a ready supply of unwanted used crankcase oil, an old Lincoln generator welder and this engine, I'll be sipping a cool mint julep, playing Xbox, revelling in my surplus electrons while the zombie hoard destroys mankind around me. Ah, quiet time only broken by the rhythmic puffing of mechanical perfection.
When I was about 10 (50 years back) an old bloke started an engine like this. He soaked a cloth in petrol and as he turned the flywheel the flames sucked in to the engine. Much smaller than this engine. It used to make electricity before the place got wired up. But the old bloke would start the engine for fun.. It amazed me. Still does.

Something about the sound of it all, I could just listen to it all day.
Built to last. Unlike anything sold today.

You gotdanged right!
Except for a Henry lever action rifle!
There's something oddly satisfying about the noises this engine produces.
Нефтяной двигатель, полудизель, чих - пых. Творение на заре нефтепеработки. Работало на всем, всеядная машина. Ни каких тебе лёгких фракций, только хард кор прямо из нефтяной вышки 💪😄
Спасибо за пояснение. А то смотрю и не пойму, что происходит.
Спасибо, дома бы такой поставить ,отработки за год много собирается!
Вышка нефтяной не может быть. Нефтяная скважина. А вышка буровая. Капитан очевидность
Норм так аппарат, домой такой бы, свет вырабатывать😅
А главное - одним и тем же и смазываешь, и в "топку". Полная экономия!)))
I recall My dads mill engine operating in 1950. The engine was 1910-1912 black stone single piston 18-24 HP and feel gratification when I see that engine rumbling and get amazing satisfaction to see the past alive!!
Awesome sound.
I could listen to that run all day..
yep me too.
Hypnotizing isn't it..
biggoldnugget Yes, it is :v
Detroit Techno
Seeing the piston slamming in and out reminded me of my wedding night 28 years ago...
No luck since huh?
As a mechanic. I can't stop watching this. Just so much going on. Amazing.
7:59 that last sigh of the motor is so awesome.
zajefajne! A dżwięk był po prostu boski:)
As a mechanic, this is awsome and just a bigger version of todays engines
That's the best sounding band I've hear in ages 😂
But will it pass an emissions test?????
It's probably not much worse than any oil or diesel engine today.
If u think u funny then just go back where it shows the exhaust fume coming out! I am sure burning basic type oils in its days were no more harmful to nature, inc. creatures like you, then some exhaust fumes of today's engines, however stringent they make it. But it is educational and entertaining!
Euro V i think.
Someone blew up the cylinder with explosives, then it was flooded, then buried and a lot of parts are worn out, but it still works.
That is amazing engineering and build quality.
And on the other end jelly beans pop out.
Gobstoppers*
Ross from Friends No that's the OTHER end LOL
I bet you that was what under all that fabric I was thinking I have heard this somwhere thx
Excellent video of an interesting engine. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks for your feedback, have a great day!
It is remarkable that this still runs but what is more remarkable is that someone designed this thing.
Sounds like the wife after 35 years of marriage.
or even 10

You tread on thin ice, friend.
What, creaking, thumping, heavy breathing and the occasional bang?
When's the last time you took her to get serviced?
This is the same sound my bed makes when my girlfriend is over.
+Narwhal Bacon
Are you Popeye the sailor?
Because when I see and hear these old engine videos, that's the mental image I get...
You don't have a girlfriend.
this is the same sound my bed makes when my inflatable girlfriend comes over.
Narwhal Bacon sounds like when the D is going inside...
Fucking virgin
Are 6.4 million of us really Machine nerds?...Can there really be this many people that love this stuff?...:)
@Scott Heslin Hey, thanks brah...She's 80 so she wants to thank you for tossing her salad "every night"...It's tough, at that age, to do a thorough job back there... YOU GO GIRL!
This is my kind of restoration-just enough work done to make it work and that work done in a sympathetic and authentic manner,who was the restorer?
idk why but it is so satisfying :D
PrzemuŚ The way the parts move in time with each other to allow this piece of machinery to operate really is a sight to see
PrzemuŚ
Just engineer things.
Its so satisfying for me too , more than even these crappy satisfying compilations :D
shut up
If it was built tighter like modern engines it wouldn’t be alive all these years later. Beautiful piece of machinery.
Sounds like it's sneezing occasionally aaa-choo!! :) Awesome...
This engine never fails you.
That sound alone is amazing....takes you to a long forgotten era
oil and steel, nothing else :D
waterfall792 hey there might be tiny amounts of paint left. Also there is some fuel I think it runs in kerosene.
Ferguson101 kerosene runs the same as Diesel fuel, both are also known as home heating oil in some parts of the world
Morgan Ruegsegger kero is number 1
Diesel and heating oil number 2
Definitely not the same when it gets cold out. Kero is more refined with a lower wax content and higher btu output
And cast iron... and some gasket materials... Oh and there has to be some lead and asbestos in it. Because old.
...and a lot of rust

Re watching your video again, almost the same starting principle as the Lanz Bulldog farm tractor. Preheat the hot bulb and throw the flywheel into the compression, (Some Lanz tractors you had to put the steering wheel on the crank to give it a swing) and hope it starts in the correct direction as the Lanz was a two stroke diesel engine.
10hp but probably more like 100 fl lbs of torque, yes please.
No maybe 200 tops
Actually its 437 ft-lb of torque. If you time the RPM from the video you get 120 RPM and for 10 HP for HP=torque * RPM/5252 and so we quickly learned that you could double the area of the piston or double the RPM to get double the HP. Hence the move from the large piston slow speed steam engines with walking beams the size of buildings to high RPM machines. The advanced Porter-Allen engine versus the early Watt steam engines.
@Anthony Ramsey closer then you bitch boy.
@@theoldbigmoose its 5252/RPM actually but i understand and thanks for the comment. that1000ftlbs commenter is a bitch .
@@theoldbigmoose thank you science side of tumblr
This engine will last forever :)
Well started! Bravo!. First go!. I've seen many other videos of operators messing about for ages.
Where cinematographers learned the sounds of engines for fantasies.
Amazing sound! Very quiet as well, would make a good generator.
loaded it won't be so quiet.
So smooth. No computer. An artistic triumph! And yet it was soooo practical!
nice beat! :)
thanks for shring, great job!
You are welcome, I am happy you liked the vid!
Greetings from Sofia, Bulgaria. Thanks for responding:)
I will acquire one of these engines for the upcoming apocalypse. With a ready supply of unwanted used crankcase oil, an old Lincoln generator welder and this engine, I'll be sipping a cool mint julep, playing Xbox, revelling in my surplus electrons while the zombie hoard destroys mankind around me. Ah, quiet time only broken by the rhythmic puffing of mechanical perfection.
aaroncake ,, Hell I'm gonna make me one outta old plumbing parts and run it on used cooking oil.
aaroncake you aint doint shit caus your too lazy to get off your couch as it is
Yeah but what's an Xbox with no internet.
svtirefire windows 95!
I just wanna say "zombie oil"
When I was about 10 (50 years back) an old bloke started an engine like this. He soaked a cloth in petrol and as he turned the flywheel the flames sucked in to the engine. Much smaller than this engine. It used to make electricity before the place got wired up. But the old bloke would start the engine for fun.. It amazed me. Still does.
i just love open crank engines and such a grate sound it has
Colin Wood ya man all that blow by is just amazing 😂😂😂
That It is lol
