Please no music when a'n engine runs.
Actually the music is annoying at all times as it often drowns out the narration.
Agree! I wanted to hear the engine running!
Please Jimmy cut the back ground music as it is so annoying.
@@jimsmalleimb7709 totally agree
The music sucks!
Dear Jimmy, that little oil reservoir on top of the engine *is not the lubricant for your crankshaft, rods and pistons* !
The little oil reservoir only lubes your rotary vane which sits between the carburetor and the engine block, nothing else.
So, please add appropriate 2-stroke oil to your fuel.
I was just about to type that, I hope he sees that comment!
I don't believe they added fuel, so hopefully whoever put the fuel in put in the proper mix. So we can hope there was no damage during the start up. Good reminders though.
If they are using the fuel that was left in the tank it is premixed. If they did not add very much regular fuel it might be ok for very short run
Registry for the plane lists engine as Bombardier snowmobile engine.
I thought the Bombardier , which is like the 503. Had a fully lubricated injector system not requiring fuel/oil mixing.
Oh well, nothing like watching Jimmy just try things without doing any mechanical homework.
What could go wrong
Except kill one of his future buyers..
@@michaelpilot1000 could be unless the pump was removed and fuel was just pre mixed, the part that is concerning is the lack of smoke on start up and warm up, regardless awesome video
Looks like an "Early Bird Jenny", which is a 67% scale replica of the Curtiss Jenny. Your viewers should know that this is absolutely NOT an actual WWI aircraft. It is an experimental, amateur built aircraft, designed by Dennis Wile... and it was probably built 80 years after WWI, in the early 1990s. :) The real Curtiss Jenny is quite a bit larger, and there are still a few original flying examples still around.
and they don't have lawnmower engines. They've actual aero engines running on actual petrol.
I was looking for this comment. Thanks
@@jwenting This one is snowmobile, same power as small car, not a lawn mower
@@johanengqvist4333 same engine design principle though, same manufacturers, just a souped up, scaled up, lawnmower (or moped) engine.
Especially with a Rotax on board.
Jimmy needs a property like that!
An old house, a couple of old hangers, and a grass strip.... A fellow doesn't really need much more than that!
I have no doubt It will come .... needs the permission of wife and family I suppose. In usa exist these flying communities like John Travolta is living where u have the plane directly front the house. Wills be awesome such place with lots of aviation crazy folks around
And don't forget those old parts hauler trucks in the back ground. The site of one of those old trucks hauling an old fuselage down the road would be priceless. Although I am hoping all those planes fly out of there.
*Safety tweaks:*
*1. Suspension: Add two new inner tubes, two new 20" bicycle tires, wheels, and hubs perhaps 32J with three cross, new bearings and new bungee wrap suspensions.*
*2. Energy management: Replace cowl edge foam with 4" foam especially in front of pilot. Replace metal windshield screws with nylon fasteners so your face can shear them off.*
*3. Stuctural rigidity: Inspect all cables for any corrision in particular the eyes for abrasive wear. I always find one.*
I tried to tell him that too😂
Kind of looks like the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome, located in Red Hook, NY.
Hey guys be sure the oil injection is working correctly , it did not appear to be smoking out the exhaust at all and seeing its a 2 stroke you would think it would smoke a bit for sure . 👍
I concur. I had a 503 and it always smoked at startup.
Two strokes need oil in the fuel. I was hoping it wasn't going to seize while he ran it up.
I removed the oil injection and premix. It's the only way to know for sure, until I forget 😢
It's not oil injected
@@Watson1 it's not a 503
Hey Jimmy…..For us old guys who love mechanical noises instead of loud music….Would you mind dropping the same video edited without the music? Thanks man! You guys rock!
Awesome vid! Always wanted to do a plane revival.
Also, heads up, "it'll be fine" has been Cars and Cameras slogan for years😅
You guys would do an awesome plane revival! We should connect on one in the future.
FYI: I had no idea about Cars & Camera when this thing started. We share something in common lol
@@therealjimmysworld always been scared of the FAA shutting us down 😂
You’re not wrong… lol
Can yo please remove the music
Gotta be the best one yet! It reminds me of a brave, young pilot back in the day with a similar flying machine whose mother was scared to death to see him leave the house. Son, she said, just keep it low and slow! As long as you follow her advice, Jimmy, what could possibly go wrong??
Yea, when I bought my first PPC, it had sat for around 12 years & the fuel was orange! 😬😬😬
The fuel lines were rock hard, & the fuel smelled like kerosene!
Step 1, replace all fuel lines!
Step 2, remove & wash out the fuel tank!
Step 3, replace the main & secondary fuel pumps!
Step 4, lubricate the frozen carburetor & throttle linkage!
Step 5, a fresh oil change!
Running like a top now! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Note to editor - watch the music volumes, we want to hear Jimmy talk and there were times the music over powered him.
Heard! :)
Just cut the music. Does not add to the video.
@@hepphepps8356exactly its horrible
Jesse works pretty well together with you. You should keep him around as your Jimmy's world sidekick.
I flew several types of Quicksilver ultralights with Rotax engines. All of them required premix oil fuel. Great engines with little failure. The only problem I had was a spark plug wire coming of mid flight. The engine was mounted with the jugs on the bottom and we had to put bungie cords across the wires to make sure they stayed put. The 532 engine was water cooled but the 503 was my favorite. Hand starting them on a cold morning with no choke was a chore. Real great little aircraft that are still in production I think.
We rounded up cattle and herded wild horses for local cowboys with ours.
Take care, have fun,
jack
I soooo love seeing Jimmy out-of-his-mind happy! That was cool!👍👍
Who ever is doing the Morgan Freeman voice at the end did a pretty good job 😂
That HAS to be Jimmy! 😆😅🤣
Well done!
Just a note, the engine does use pre-mix, the oil bottle you are seeing is to lube the rotary valve!
This plane is a keeper. It's probably the best of the 7.
Up to your usual standard, love seeing these home built aircraft back in flying condition. BUT please get rid of the music, it spoils the sound of the aircraft. More aircraft and less music. Cheers Wiz
Great note! :)
I love watching you Jimmy. It's also nice to see someone getting these old planes going. Especially seeing you get one this old
It’s a 1997 airplane, it’s not THAT old
@@maxmasterson3804 I sorry didn't realize that WW1 was in 1997 guess being 55 I must have forgotten that war
@@billhackner4724 this plane is a WWI REPLICA in scaled down proportions. It is not an actual WWI airplane. As max said, it was built by a hobbyist in 1997.
It's a replica from the 1990s apparently not from WW1 or 2
Nice looking airplane, but it's NOT a Jenny.
you should have your ball cap on backwards and a silk rap around its you
I have to admit I wanted Jimmy to start it over and over. It's such a rush to hear that old engine start so easy. ❤
The engine is not vintage.
The Morgan Freeman voice at the end is what seal the deal! “God, is that you?!?” 😂
Wow setting here watching this and caught myself smiling and laughing. Couldn't believe it was running that well . Fantastic!!
Love this video. Jimmy’s enthusiasm is infectious for sure. Can’t wait for the next video 👍👍👍👍👍
That plane is probably worth more than the Elvis jet.
Very impressive, will be great to see that old bird fly again!
Great video.most of those old Rotec motors we're Premix the little oil bottle was for the rotary valve and water pump. If it was oil injected it would need a lot bigger bottle than that little bottle.
On the old MX570 Snowmobile they were pre mix and had that little bottle for the rotary valve and waterprompts.
The Morgan Freeman voice narration at the end is hilarious. Is that just Jimmy doing an impression or an AI voice changer? Love it
OMG.. man.. i cant believe that thing starts and runs as good as it does.. all i can say.. is just... WOW.... man what a score
Thanks Jimmy for such great content!!!
*Not an expert* but I’m almost positive your viewers would enjoy listening to the engine MORE than generic shit rock.
Out of everything you got, that is the plane that intrigued me the most. If I had any money I'd make you an offer
Well Jimmy you put a smile on this 76 yo old mans face, That's the way you do it, can't wait to see the others start !!!
Hey Jimmy, when starting a tail dragger I was taught to pull the stick back to make sure the tail would stay planted on the ground. You might consider doing this in the future even with the T-6.
I don't think he has his tail dragger endorsement (he said he wasn't legal to fly the cub in the other video). Perfectly legal to run one up without the endorsement but little things like keeping the tail planted etc is important things to know...
@@Avi8tor857 to bad he didn't get ahold of me. I would have loved to drive from East Tx to the central part of Texas to help in those old birds. My first plane was a Luscombe 8a and my last was a Vans RV8.
yep, my dad always kept a bungee cord in the plane to hold the stick back on start-up, his was prop start so had to tie the tail down, bungee the stick and crack the throttle a hair before fire up
If you look at about 11:19 , you can see they have probably 100+ pounds holding the tail down.
@@Avi8tor857 I saw a video where someone taught him.
Awesome video Jimmy but take it easy with the music mate, love the sound of the engine etc, If i want a music video I would be watching elsewhere huh.
Congrats Jimmy, you got another one running! Now on to the next one.
Love the channel Jimmy. Cool old planes. Thanks for doing this stuff. That 2 stroke really had some decent power it seems
Fabulous vid. So good to see the oldies working again. music is a bit too much though.
A bit? Its in 90% of the vid and its crappy music too
Running great, the Jenny replica should be an easy sale. Good job.
Great Job Jimmy and Jesse on getting the WW1 airplane to start and run..
I’m impressed. I never thought it would start. Yet it is probably one of your best successes.😊
snoopy wants his plane back😂
Jimmy, that engine is water cooled, its either a 532 or 582, I think.
I love seeing old planes fired back up and going!!
You guys look like you're a whole bus-load of fun to hang out with! Great content!
Loved seeing you flying side by side with Cleetus in his Cub!!. More content with him!!
That's an old 582 Rotax, possibly a skidoo conversion since it doesn't have dual CDI. The 503 is air cooled with air shrouds and a cooling fan. ;) Also, that is not the oil injection reservior. It is to lube the rotary valve only. I don't see an injection pump so that motor has been converted to PRE-MIX only!! 50:1
Yeah and it should have been smoking like he'll on startup if it was getting enough 2 stroke oil. I don't like those engines. Had many failures on the crankshafts in the past. Even the VW flat four would be a more reliable motor than that one.
@@vincentmolloy5660 They are great engines if maintained properly. I have three Rotax here, zero problems. Two have oil injection, works fine. My 503 was converted to pre-mix before I got it, so I left it alone. Hundreds of hours of reliable fun.
532
That HAS TO BE the coolest “will it start” I’ve seen you do to date. Peace
Great HAPPY DANCE Jimmy!!! I can tell you're having fun!
@@mariarusso1155 JUST HAVING FUN ON THIS THIRD ROCK FROM THE SUN AND FLYING HIGH IN THE CLOUDS EVERY CHANCE I GET.
If you need new wooden propeller look up Culver Propellers.
You gotta be happy to see how happy Jimmy is!! This made my day!
Very cool! Yep, I thought this was the real Sad Sack of the bunch, but this looks like a blast to fly! Good move. You gotta keep this one too.
Amazing to see, and hear, that WW1 plane start. One of my favourite videos....
Jimmeyyy.. love your content.
Why music when the engine is running?
Jimmy got a little bit carried away with the music on this one. He promises that it will never happen again....
0:24 LOL... loved the art! "Look out below!"
Great job on the old airplane. Love it.
That's not a 503. It looks like a 532 water cooled. Unfortunately it's an old engine and spares are becoming increasingly hard to come by which will reduce the value. As posted elsewhere, you MUST use 50:1 2-stroke premix as that little reservoir is for lubricating the rotary valves ONLY. Rotax 2-strokes are pretty bullet proof and if you use straight Mogas it'll fly for a surprisingly long time as an old friend found out with a 582 that has the same lubrication (as does my X-air) but it will seize eventually.
I'm the first comment, and I don't know what to say because I have stage fright. Um.... I just choked, I love airplanes and Jimmy is funny! There I said it. I'll be leaving the stage now. (I was so nervous I even had to correct a typo PTSD for me now).
These are the style of videos we want!!! I hate watching you do renovations or pander for money. Stick to fun old thrashed airplanes that have no business running! Love this
Wow! Boys and their toys! What fun to watch.
Whats the legality of flying that thing back to ontario canada? Ive flown powered paraglider, wasnt very suslcessful but i got some time off the ground before learning the term turtle turtle!!! I love these old bi planes. Thank you for saving this one guys!!!
That rotax sounds GOOD. Awesome win for Jimmy and team!
Very cool 👍🏻😎 hope the other ones will also turn over that easy. Good luck, lookin forward to the plane video 🤘🏻🤙🏻
Please get a video of this one flying before it sales.
I’m sure Jimmy will be checking every control cable and pulley before he goes airborne!!!! RIGHT JIMMY !!!!!!
It's always safety first with Jimmy!
Thank you UA-cam for suggesting this. Found a new thing to obsessively watch and learn about!
Covered prop, electric starter, good tires, lines all workin
Someone loved that plane
if i try to hand prop a plane 300% you wont see me again. what happened to all of the 310s and the elvis jet?
I always use wd40 as starter fluid, or 2 cycle gas/oil in a bottle. Ether and brake clean is just to harsh IMO on a 2 cycle. Nice experimental Jenny.
For the cub I think I would run that engine to temp with some marvel mystery oil in the fuel and oil a few times then change the oil again. Likely will fully lean the valves and un stick the rings.
Gotta be a keeper that has .the fun to be had will be massive.
Awesome job jimmy! Love your videos!!
I'd keep that plane too! Nice find.
Turn off the music please!
Oh Jimmy these aircraft are so beautiful thank you for fixing them. I LOVE the world of aviation and all aeroplanes should fly
Those boys in ww1 were just crazy badass..i love that era
So awesome how reliable the older aircraft engines were.
not an old aircraft engine. Try old snowmobile engine.
Great to see... guys havin fun workin on an airplane... !!
I really appreciate that Jimmy looks like the exact target demographic for that plane when it was brand new with the moustache. All of this is delightful.
Awesome it's could be a keeper great video thanks Jimmy and jesse
My uncle's father in law was an American Airlines Pilot. In his younger days he flew Jenny's as a barnstormer. He loved that plane.
I love these old planes jimmy,great to see it's going good stuff 👍👍👍
Fun stuff! But I agree, no need for music over engine noise. If people are here they like airplanes.
I really like your knowledge and the cool things I learn in your videos, Jimmy. I always listen to every word that doesn't have an annoying sound track behind it. It gave me a headache! At least the engine sounded cool when it started up. I just skipped ahead to the end. It was the music. 😕
Man I love that old set of hangars and the airplanes stashed in them!
I'm lovin all your vids Jimmy. One thing - when a wooden prop is in use, particularly one that's not been turned by the engine in a LONG time, when you 'Clear Prop', you should ALWAYS stand/be behind the prop, not in front of it, as if it breaks, the piece that comes off will go/fly FORWARD at a huge rate of knots, and the camera person was standing at the SIDE of the spinning prop! Death Wish!
Thanks for the share Jimmy.
that was epic dude very well done both of you
@@mariarusso1155 i am well thankyou.i do hope you are well?
I'll bet that Jenny is a ground looping champ ,is someone going to attempt to actually fly any of these planes before this series shuts down, The Luscum would be the best Pick of the lot because it's all metal and a bigger engine than the cub
no, the Luscombe and Cub have the same engine. The Luscombe goes about 30 mph faster.
Awesome plane Jimmy, keep it! ❤
Wow, that's a cool little airplane. I actually like that one better than the cub!
Awesome Jimmy, love the old motorcycle battery. Thanks Hertz….
good job ! however I would always add oil in fuel on 2 strokes even if they are premix they tend to fail like crazy ! had an old outboard v6 johnson do that to me and i learnt my lesson !
keep them coming jimmy we like watching from the other side of the pond :)
Great video Jimmy can't wait for more thanks.
Come on guys… it’s not even the original engine. So YES… there’s a STARTER BUTTON 👉🏻🔴
"Good job Jimmy! This Bi-plane was an excellent glider. It fetches very well and was easy on fuel at low altitudes. Your service techniques on the aircraft was well noted, but? The engineers who had constructed this engine deserves an applaud; Due to it's smooth running capabilities and the life expectancy of the motor being still valid due to it's hourly usage at the time of the craft being in service, to the previous owner."
~ I can't wait until you work on the Mustang. It was an Eagle in the sky..Look! Look! There it goes!~ 👍
My great grandfather trained in the JN-4 Jenny in the US Army Air Service! He was a 1LT and served from 1917-1919. I'm an active duty USAF pilot! It runs in the blood! 🤘
I have seen some barn finds but this one is probably the best I have ever seen.
As long as it's already been brought up, I'll say it as well. Should have seen lots of smoke when it started. It seemed flooded when it finally took off. That little oil bottle on top is just the oil reservoir for the rotary valve shaft. It doesn't supply oil to the fuel. Also, it's almost for sure a Rotax 532. They came out before the 582. Single ignition, liquid cooled. There was a 462 single ignition, liquid cooled but they are really rare. I've owned and flown two 532s and three 582s
Name it Forrest; RUN, Forrest, RUN!
Would be awesome to see this one fly!
