Thanks to Koneistus Alho for letting us film their diesel engine mayhem! As said on the video we order quite much smaller parts and larger patches from them that we don't have suitable machines for on our own workshop and I can strongly recommend them. Check their machines and services from their websites if you need high quality machining in Tampere area www.koneistusalho.fi/
And for people that worry that it was some really rare historic engine, no need to worry these are super common and not rare in Finland and they still have a LOT of nicer engines like this to play with.
in Australia old engines like that are valuable and destroying it is sacrilege
@@brucebaxter6923 This is really common engine here and there isn't any need to store all of them since there isn't any use for them any more.
Try adding a turbocharger
@@brucebaxter6923 Who needs old junk?
Do a runaway air compressor til it explodes.
That engine is way too powerfull. It's falling apart, on fire and probably melting down but still keeps on running like it's usual day for it.
Dont make em like they used to.
That's some serious quality manufacturing. Honestly, this is some nice PR. Show just how difficult it is to make your product fail.
I want see Dyno stats!:)
@@lpnlizard2742 Frankly, that's a good thing...
Diesel engines are the best.
That old engine ran really well for its age. It made me sad to see it die like that.
You're not alone, I felt the same way. This is the first video of their's that I downvoted.
Better that it dies for the entertainment of thousands, than rust away in a field.
@@tnbspotter5360 it appears they bought it from a restoration yard
It is just a peace of metal and there are enough of these engines laying around.
@@Nick-fw5uj It's not though, it's sad to see.
I was kind of bummed to see such a cool old diesel go like that, but after looking at the flywheels, there's like a quarter inch of runout lol😂. That thing didn't have more than a couple days worth of operation before the journals/bearings turned to playdough. Looks like it took a really hard hit to bend the main shaft that bad. Engines aren't supposed to shake themselves to death even in a runaway condition lol. The shaking was from the flywheel's insane runout...
It’s probably had that run out this last 40 years
@@Diesel8290 yeah for real these engines don’t run high rpms probably would’ve lasted another life time always could’ve fixed this simple machine
Ohh yeah, you mean after it revved 2x higher than it ever should have? Yeah well I do wonder why that could become an issue 🤔🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Why do people care so much, it's an old inanimate object, if you like these shitty old diesels so much I'm sure you could make one with modern shop tools easily. But there's no point we're in the future we have electric motors
@@aydenkennedy6768 They're pieces of history. Thankfully though where this was recorded plenty more were to be found...apparently
Whoever built that thing was a master mechanic. Back when things were really built to last, we live in a disposable world now.
Back in the day, there were just as many garbage engines as there are today. But they all died before we got around to seeing them now.
Yea, especially Diesel engines.

That hurt the mechanic soul in me. Poor little bugger, to be abused like that… O.0
lol, yeah, that was one hard working little engine, I felt bad for it
Same here love old machines
I feel like it didn't want everyone watching when it finally died and managed to wait until it was shrouded in smoke.
That’s the definition of old reliable right there.
Yeah this killed me inside since i have allways been facinated by " old technology"
That engine looked ancient, but this is definitely a testament to whom ever engineered and built this thing.
OMG that breaks my heart to see that little booger be treated so badly .
These were engines built to last lol. Basically all old two stroke diesels are nearly unkillable, somehow sad to watch it getting destroyed but also quite interesting :D
Every decade has crappy stuff. the crappy stuff from 1960 isn't still here because its crappy and broke.
Air+fuel+compression= near guarantee that a diesel will run. No spark plugs needed. That's exactly why I love them
still not as tough as a toyota pickup
Sad thing is it didn't even run away properly, it only ran away for a little bit each time, the death was caused by the governor being strapped still.
That poor engine, such a will to live 😭😭😭😭
What you mean?

Brings a tear to the eye this does.

As an old engine collector and enthusiast, this makes me very sad.
Well they exposed a hundred thousand people (so far) to something they might never have even heard of. Maybe one going this way will encourage a few more to keep old stuff like that around. Considering it came from a place that restores them, it was probably clapped out beyond reasonable repair before they even started with it.
@@--_DJ_-- or encourage someone that finds 1 cheap to blow it up
@@BIGSMOKE-bl2lq Either way, to each his own in the end.
Honestly me too, I'm not a collector but it was a proud engine, kinda like putting down ole' yeller.
You should have collected this one before he got to it then
There's something sad, even melancholy, about seeing it on fire and literally running itself into pieces, but still running hard anyway, even to the point of self-destruction.

I think it reminds a lot of people of themselves like that.
That's what so many people do with meth.. most people skip over how sad that actually is. This is just a manmade object.. shouldn't attach much emotional value to it.
Man have a heart, I would die to have one of those.

Kudos to the people who designed and built this engine. If your design can survive and more importantly not kill anyone even after everything has gone wrong its pretty great.

That was just depressing to watch a beautiful antique engine, likely 100 years old, and still running, being destroyed like that.
"... and don't try this at home, this is stupid."
Love you guys, thumbs waaay up! Thanks a lot with big smile on face.
Another fun way to destroy a diesel engine is to dump a halon fire-extinguisher into the intake.
Halon will break down under the compression, and the gasses it makes expand quite a lot...drives the engine like super-charged fuel!
Not only that, the halogens it makes are fairly toxic and very corrosive to metals.
My brother was designing 'packaged power' units; a shipping container with generator set, controls and fuel tanks for providing power where needed.
The things needed fire suppression, and nobody knew at the time that halon and diesel is a bad mix.
They had a big demonstration test of the fire control system; lost a very expensive brand new engine. In front of customers!
That shitty Halon is banned some 30 years ago, but wery nice to know that thing! CO2 is better all ways, but I think some big corporation invented that shitty halogen and they just "must sell it". Maybe same guys who invented Freon? And idea for adding lead to gasoline.. I just can imagine, If I am right.
Ok, it really was DuPount..
Janne Johansson Freon and leaded gasoline were the same person, Thomas Midgley Jr.
@Muh boi hmm okay.. Once I tested "burn" small amount of r22 and when it get some heat, it become some kind of nervous gas, I think :p
I throw badly and it give me a headache. I made that test at outside and because I want see does it burn. So it didn't maybe but smells VERY bad. Structure of fluorocarbon somehow broke or change badly way.. I don't understant why CO2 is not used? You can't inhalate air what contains Freon's, as same thing than carbon dioxide. Does Freon's spread better way? I mean that CO2 is heavier than air..
Poor machine! She didn´t deserve such an end! 😔😔😔
"Don't try this at home. This is stupid." Best advice yet.
For a lifetime of loving old engines that was very sad to watch.
"I declare that this is a successful failure."
task failed succesfully
I've only seen a runaway diesel in person once. A neighbor who liked to work on cars dragged home this ancient Mercedes sedan. He finally got it running, and it just took off. We came outside just in time to see him jump into the car and try to stop it by holding the brakes and putting it in gear, but all that did was blow out the clutch. It ran for maybe another 10 minutes before something did explode. Quite a show.
That's sad, he should have tried to block the intake.
would siphoning the fuel out work?
@@kerimca98 It would take a whole. But really once the engine is in bad enough shape to go into runaway you don't have a lot of time to save it. If you knew there was just a gallon/a few liters of fuel it might be worth a try.
@josephcote6120 On that old a Mercedes I imagine there was no turbo, so in that case the fuel rack would've stuck in full fuel. Cover the air intake or disconnect fuel lines. Sadly though now it's too late.
At the end, it almost like the little engine wanted to say "I'm sorry, I can't run no more boss. I broke. But did I do good today? Will I get some fuel and oil now? Will you clean me an repair me so I can work for you forever? Boss?...... Boss, are you there....?"
So sad :\
Are you trying to make me cry? :-(
😭😭😭😭
I love that you guys have a pure channel with very little emphasis of self worship and more a worship of life and all of its beautiful perks.
Everyone complqining about the destroying this engine should know that this specific engine is super common in scandinavia.
Yep but it's always the same thing with everything that gets destroyed. Even 200€ beater cars are the most valuable thing for some people and those should all be stored in museums :D Sure it's nice to keep some history around but you don't have to store all old things just because they are old.
press some people don't even have the money to buy a 200€ car and they will be more then happy with one

That's a great response sir!

Things where over engineered back then, with a long stroke like that the piston speed and acceleration must have been frightening.
Something serious and reciprocating gave out as early as 3:20 but it just kept going.
A strip down would be interesting.
For real. Piston speed must have crazy.
Yes, tear down.
You mean overbuilt. Literally the opposite of over engineered.
FyreSpit Over built? No, they were designed to last and made properly.
@@MrGrahamxyz Inefficient, barely able to perform the task it was designed for, there was barely any engineering used here.
You can take a modern, computer controlled engine, and run it at 200rpm like this PoS and it will last a thousand years, this was barely able to last 50 without shaking itself apart.
That is what engineering is, efficiency. This engine was overbuilt, and poorly designed. I'm sure it was very good for when it was made, but it is no longer the 1950's.
Love the videos, carry on !!!!
Love the shirt man! Also, great video!
That helpful little machine didn't deserve its end.
Indeed, it did nothing to hurt anyone and deserved to be preserved regardless of the condition they said it was in. They're so rare these days.
When the engine catches fire, you get automatically +20% horsepower.
I kinda feel like I just watched a great work of art being destroyed.
its the little engine that could...
...until it couldn’t. nice vid! cheers!!
"quite far away" 6:50 Must be a trick of perspective haha
if the strap manages to fling itself 90 degrees out of plane, it'd be quite amazing.
That's the finnish version of "quite far"! xD
the lens distorts the distance :D
about 45 or 50 feet
This 100 years old 2 stroke engine is still lot safer than a self-destroying BMW N47D20.
This is actually bmw as well. But with no connection to the german company

Thank you for what you do! Keep up the great work and please don't ever change what you guys do, and how you do it 💙
These old semi-diesels can run for ever! I like to see a full restoration of this engine
Old engines are very cool. It's sad to see one get destroyed. 😔
This is a cruel thing to do to a magnificent old engine. Like whipping an old plow-horse to death.
Ain't that the truth!
Well what are you gonna use the thing for? I am all for old-school tech and I rarely ever deem something obsolete but these old crappy diesel engines serve no purpose anymore.

Did you watch the video? They said it was pretty much scrap, and they have other engines that are much better condition and worth saving
@@FSXgta most things are scrape until you restore them.
I'm with you.
Again, did you watch the video? It was explained that the people who gave BTP one of their WORST models they had on hand, out of "a very large collection". As much as I know that "almost scrap" can be restored, there is no point in keeping terrible quality models that they can't even use for good spare parts.
Like cars. Some car that was halfway decently taken apart and put haphazardly into a garage will be worth more to put together than some rustbucket found in a barn.
Rip vintage engine😥
That was a great old engine, if it was run as it should have been, it would have out lasted a lot of the newer stuff we get today. A great video, thank you for posting.
Why would you want to kill such a cool old engine??? It's an antique 😭
Man I need one of those badly! To generate electricity for my home. Those things run forever!
How cheap is your diesel
retag Not the cheapest fuel, but diesels like that tend to use less fuel compared to gasoline, due to the lower RPM and higher torque.
@@the_retag engines of this type can run on crude oil so a veggie oil conversion is fairly eaisy

Even watching this feels incredibly wrong.. How do you manage to do this to such an old and (in my eyes) precious masterpiece of engineering? I just couldn´t - one day an engine that runs on salad oil may be just priceless. This pains me!
are u a hoarder
Avert your eyes if it hurts. This was a scrap piece anyways.
It really didn't last long compared to what modern engines can endure though...

Excelente vídeo!!👌
There's something almost kind of darkly sci-fi about an engine intentionally running beyond all safety parameters just to destroy itself on purpose. I love this video, like all the rest you folks do.
There is nothing supernatural in it. Its just called a runaway when it starts to run with its oil but there is some ways to stop it.
overload the reactor!
It’s cool to watch either way
@@artyz3242 You're the only one using the word "supernatural".
@@artyz3242 I said sci-fi (which is short for science fiction) and I was referring to the overall concept that the video brought to my mind, personally, not the literal, actual event that we all watched take place in the video.
RIP nice engine.
Enjoyed the video alot. I think if you found a cheap 4 stroke engine and routed an oil line with some sort of injection nozzle with some sort of pump and a valve into the air intake you would be able to simulate it better since a two stroke engine is designed to run on oil. A 4 stroke engine would run quicker and cause alot more carnage. As for the smoking issue with a 4 stroke make a long exhaust pipe that vents away from the engine a ways to help alleviate some of that problem. Food for thought. Thanks for the video once again
First time in my life a movie made me cry 😭😭😭
I have to say, that engine is tough!!!!
"Aaand... That should make it go mad!"
Yep! Seems pretty mad to me. xD
That engine is awesome!!! someone would have loved to restore it, It's too bad You guys got a hold of it.

shame to see such an old engine destroyed but who can say no to carnage caught on film LOL
Well that was a waste of a good old engine. Personally I think it had plenty of life left in it. Oh well. 🤔
I mean, I’m usually not the one to talk driving a straight piped diesel truck that blows a little soot from time to time, but running this continuously for agricultural and industrial purposes is super inefficient and just dumps soot in the air.
I think this would have been better off as a collectors item for another collector that doesn’t have as many. It runs and even when you try to make it run away it doesn’t. We can produce better ones that give you a lot more power and are a lot cleaner even without emissions gear. Are they neat and old? No. Are they nicer on the wallet and anyone near it? Totally.
Apollo I haven’t seen a single person here talking about using this engine for agricultural purposes. It’s just the fact that it’s such a cool old hot bulb diesel engine that was destroyed for no particular reason.
Charlie Norton Ignoring the whole “better off as a collectors item for another collection” part go over your head or something? They said it was scrap to them because they have a lot more nice ones.
It's kinda amazing what punishment an old diesel engine can take and just keep on going.
