Our family textile factory in the north of Scotland was all run off a single cylinder diesel of 80HP. This was installed in 1925, when the previous Tangye producer gas engine was proving inadequate. The diesel continued in use until 1938, when mains electricity arrived. It was a 68 litres or in round numbers 4150 cu inches. It was a Deutz MKH 260 design but manufactured under licence in the UK by Shanks.
Very intresting. Thanks for sharing the story! I have a smaller 15hp Deutz 322 one cylinder from 1935. Very nice engines.
@@YesterdaysMachinery I believe the Shanks 80HP engine was sold off during WW2, to work as an electricity generator at a newly built wartime airfield, on one of the outlying islands of Scotland, where there was no mains electric supply.
man of your word. i really wanted to see that cooler tower in action too. great machinery, thanks for sharing
Watching those flywheels and crankshafts thrashing around almost faster than the eye can see... man you have to respect that machinery if you don't want to get mashed by it! Great stuff, well done.
I'm addicted to watching your videos, so fascinating watching these magnificent creations.
Please, please, please do more videos.
Thank you.
Thanks! Yes there will be alot more 😊
Discoverd this channel 2 days ago love it 😁
Thanks! This channel has exploded lately... The wiews and subs are climbing very fast 😍 So i feel the pressure of making new videos 😊
@@YesterdaysMachinery they are more than welcome 😁👌
I have liked every one of your videos. Keep up the content.
I have to imagine that thing has some torque!!!
Such a contrast to modern day high rpm two stroke engines!
Yes, this sounds better than a weed wacker 😅
@@YesterdaysMachinery how about this vs a CR500 in the powerband being ridden by someone who can manage not to die for 30 seconds?
I like both, but the danger factor of the CR500 hits different haha
@@von... You dont mess with a CR500 😄 I remenber a friend of mine that was wery small for his age, (around 13 back then). He parked the 500 against the house wall and climbed up to the saddle and jumped down at the kickstarter to get it started. True story.
Superb old engine. Great video 👍
Hi,
Trank you very much dir this Video.
I very much like all kind of historic Engines , and I found your video quite inspiring.

I can remember helping a friend remove a piston from one of these large single cylinder oil Burners for restoration after sitting unused for 70 odd years at an old gold mine site. I brought with me a hydraulic rescue kit, porta-power, which had small diameter rams and extensions.
Took us a day to do it properly so as not to damage the piston. We had already removed the flywheel and counterbalance wheel as well as the main bearing cups and crankshaft.
I think the biggest single-cylinder ever built was the Doxford Seahorse prototype which was installed at South Shields Technical College in the UK. That engine is now at the Anson Museum after a bid to save it from being scrapped.
That is quite a bore and I could have never guessed the reed valve is leather 👍👍🇺🇸
New to the channel. Not to much else. Always loved the old hit and miss gas or kerosene, I have seen oil engines before but never saw one run. That’s from Blythe California.
Now that’s what you call a big bore single cylinder! Holy cow.
Can you make 6 minutes video of this engine while its running and Some xzoust pipe shot while it runs and Some cylinder shots the sound of it while it runs is extremly pleasing thanks 👍😀😀
Yes, i have a video like that, filmed yesterday. Running for 7 minutes and im filming everything very well. I haven't uploaded it yet. But i will, probably next week. 🙂
Man, people have no idea just how far a single cylinder can get you.
Good stuff mate. I might be getting a spring injection Blackstone soon.
Sounds very interesting! Hope you make some videos of it. Is Blackstone common at yours? Here in Sweden they are super rare. Almost like zero, but ive seen one on the internet here in Sweden, but that could be imported lately too.
Well, the hot bowl oil engines are fairly common but the big “spring injection” Blackstones are rare . I have been trying to get this one for years . My son and me had to shift it a few years back because it was in the way of a new irrigation system. I shifted it for no money just so i knew it wont get damaged. It’s not really big but very nice. Three older brothers in their 80’s own it and want me to have it but one of there sons wants it in his garden.
Wow!
I see a lot of these old engines running on youtube but ive yet seen anyone actually put them to work.
Hi, Then check out my sawmill video here on my channel. /Richard
I bet back in the day it was a real labor saver, might be cheaper than having 35 horses to feed and shelter and take care of. I bet it did a lot of work in its day.
To US eyes, the title might look like it's only over 20cc, since zeroes after the decimal point are insignificant.
Veldig tøff motor, jeg og en kamerat fant restene av en i en liten innsjå på Østlandet
Interesting that it runs the reverse direction from most single cylinder engines. I wonder if there was a reason for this?
No replacement for displacement, as the old saying goes.
The old saying....
Because the replacement for displacement is forced induction.
Cool!! Wonder how they balanced it at the factory.
The flywheels is balansed. Drilled holes where it was to heavy. The rest is probably just calculated to be ok. But it is well balanced.
THAT'S WHAT I LOOK LIKE IN THE SACK. POUND POUND POUND POUND
1:08 one cylinder, but 12 hearts :-)
That’s really neat! I wonder what the piston speed on this engine is!
3.1 meters per second at 300RPM.
Modern high RPM engines can do 24 meters per second maximum for comparison. Crazy!
Great engine and certain big. Bigger bore engine
though made. Ship diesel bigger bore, MAN, Wartsila.
Greeting from Russia (Cherkasy)... ❤️
It may be monstrously large for a single cylinder but oh my she sounds sweet. What horsepower?
Very cool machine. At what rpm is 35HP? Must be a torque monster
Thanks. 35hp @ 315rpm.
@@YesterdaysMachinery That comes out to uhm.. 792 Nm of torque?.. approximately
and that is what it is all about.... LOW END TORQUE. the energy in the bull wheels must be HUGE. the effort he put into getting it to run by pushing those bull wheels around took max effort... the motor... nothing to get them going.. keep them going so... the TORQUE ... 500 ft/lbs? more. over the road diesels only have abt 500-550 HP (depending on how high the "wick" is turned up by the company/mechanic. POWER costs MPG's and at 5 MPG's... to begin with, it really suffers in the MPG dept when turn up the wick on the motor) anyway diesels have 1500 ft/lbs of torque from 900 rpms to 1500 rpm's... again, depending on how high the "wick" is turned up by mechanics/company. that can be done over the on board computer/satellite link up on the truck... to cross the rocky mountains when it is going to take BRUTE TORQUE to gget 80,000# UP THE MOUNTAINS faster than 5 mph... 8 mph
Torque was king when it came to big machinery back in the day. Slow turning cast iron engines (150 to 200 rpm) spent their work days pulling the brutal weight of a 27 bottom plow set to a depth of 24". The field was hard and unforgiving as a land lords heart. Ten to twelve hours of plowing a day was common. Constant maintenance of the locomotive and the 27 bottom plow was a must. The earth was an able opponent to man and his iron monster.
Those old steam powered field locomotives may have cost thousands but their modern diesel replacements cost millions and require constant expensive maintenance. There fore the acreage to be worked by these unstoppable iron beasts of the field needs to be increased ten fold if they are to earn their daily wage.
see the video of the HOT ROD V 8 diesel 4x4 JD tractor RUNNING WOT (WIDE OPEN THROTTLE) against OLD STEAM TRACTOR? simpley amaziing... the all wheel drive JD is TEARING UP THE GROUND with all 4's... the old steam locomotive just chuffs away... with the HOT RODDED JD v V8 diesel tractor screaming and tearing up the field... being pulled backwards by old steam tractor at 3 mph and 20 HP? 2 BIG iron wheels vs. 4 x 4 new diesel JD tractor was no competition for the old steam tractor????? i dont get it. makes no sense. one cyl steam piston and ~20 HP from the one piston/cyl at 300 rpm's vs. screaming V8 TURBO DIESEL 4x4 JD tractor????
It's a weight thing. If you loaded the JD down with enough ballast to weigh the same as the steam tractor it would be the one doing the towing (assuming its tyres and axles could handle the load).
@@nerd1000ify -- NO, it's the torque!! For instance, the giant Case 150 steam tractor had 5,000 ft/lbs of torque!! It broke a record by pulling a 50 bottom plow!! The HP just keeps the torque motivating in these beasts.
@@ironcladranchandforge7292 All the torque in the world means nothing if you can't get it to the ground. That's where weight comes in, the heavier your vehicle is the more friction its wheels experience against the ground.
Power is torque times rpm, nothing more. The old steam engines make lots of torque but at very low RPM, resulting in fairly low power. A modern diesel makes moderate torque at fairly high rpm, leading to lots of power. But (thankfully for the diesel) you can easily reduce the rpm and increase the torque of any engine using a reduction gearbox. Gear a modern tractor down to the same speed as a traction engine and it will have more torque, not less.
Tjena! Har något liknande av model mindre står i min mors garage och tar en jävla plats något du skulle vara intresserad av? Enligt tidigare ägare av huset var motorn/maskinen engång i tiden använd som båtmotor.
Hej, vart i landet finns den? Har du några bilder på den du skulle kunna skicka? Mitt tel: 07tvåtvå 35nio030. Mvh Richard!
Rpm?
This really shows how far we have pushed internal combustion engines or air pumps if you like. That’s all they are. Air pumps.
We have pretty much done all that can be done by now. And a it’s time to go electric. And push that to the outer limits.
