  • Designed for those who maintained ship and submarine power plants, this WWII era black & white training film is about the lubrication system. Copyright 1943. The Detroit Diesel Series 71 is a two-stroke diesel engine series, available in both inline and V configurations. The inline six-cylinder 71 series engine was introduced as the initial flagship product of the Detroit Diesel Engine Division of General Motors in 1938. The first number in the model series designation refers to the number of cylinders, and the second - 71 - the nominal displacement per cylinder in cubic inches, a rounding off of 70.93 cu in (1.2 L). Inline models included one, two, three, four and six cylinders, and the V-types six, eight, 12, 16 and 24 cylinders.
    The two largest V units used multiple cylinder heads per bank to keep the head size and weight to manageable proportions, the V-16 using four heads from the four-cylinder inline model and the V-24 using four heads from the inline six-cylinder model. This feature also assisted in keeping down the overall cost of these large engines by maintaining parts commonality with the smaller models.

    Marine version by Gray Marine. Water jacket on the exhaust manifold, and fresh water header tank shape would indicate this. The oil cooler is beneath the header tank at the front of the cylinder block. Fresh water cooler is also at the front of the engine. Most likely coupled to a Twin Disc marine reversing gearbox 3:1 reduction.

I work on generators and I get 2 or 3 a week. always fun to find one that was a reman, and the serial number dates to WWII. sucks to have to write them off to death but most customers would rather replace the generator than have to remove the engine from the skid to do any kind of engine work. wrote off a 16v92t with 590hrs on monday );

Simple and reliable. Hundreds of thousands of them helped our military kick the shit out of our enemies since WWII.

      Because the engine operator should keep good maintenance of the engine in specified intervals. (It's a commercial unit) the filter design shouldn't harm the engine due to the oil being changed regularly.

    My first experience with a Detroit, it was a 6-71, with a million miles on it, straight 5" exhaust, you could drive for miles and still be heard! It was loud, and sounded mean! Seems they could engineer it to be more efficient, abd keep the 2stroke! Adding a turbo keeping the blower, would be awesome, maybe 20-30 psi boost, id like to have one even if it's a tiny 4-53,

    • @The_sinner_Jim_Whitney
      @The_sinner_Jim_Whitney 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      They built turbo Detroits, they have a ‘T’ at the end of their model name. They have to have the blower to scavenge exhaust or they won’t run, and because of their 2-stroke design it’s apparently really hard to build much boost pressure since the exhaust valves are open for part of the intake/compression stroke, but the turbo Detroits do make better power than the ‘normally aspirated’ (blower only) ones. I’d LOVE to have a 6V53T in an old square body GMC Suburban with an Eaton 10-speed and 4WD, rig of my dreams. Nothing sounds as awesome as a 2-stroke Detroit, and I’m not even really a diesel guy.

    Its amazing they filter the oil after the oil pump and not before it hit the cooler or mains. Any metal that gets in the oil pan is sent through the system unfiltered yikes. The only reason i can think of is that the oil pressure was too high to filter after the oil pump and not before the oil cooler.
