I follow a bunch of channels on TH-cam, but there are about 3 or 4 that make me feel like a kid at Christmas when they publish a new video... and this is the best of all. Thanks for all the fascinating content!
@@YesterdaysMachinery yep I'd be making for the door in long exaggerated steps if that thing went off at 500+rpm behind me That's one hell of a lot of mass flying around 😱
Love your videos. Your knowledge and skill shows through and I like your attention to detail. My 94 year old father grew up in the countryside and has always been interested in machinery, especially internal combustion engines so he will love this channel too (he is French and Irish and a retired electrical engineer who still tinkers so this is right down his alley.) Thank you for the content.
I love these old machines and your knowledge of them is amazing! They were so simple in design and due to their simplicity made to last forever! Absolutely genius!
👍👌👏 Simply fantastic! Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards, luck and health to all of you.
It's amazing how something so old can run so perfect. Just think, people think we computers to make stuff run like that now. Not to mention it, unlike modern engines, can run in both directions. It's good to have men like you that still knows how to make old stuff like that run.
I just started watching your videos. Very well done with a bit of humour.. taking a bath in the coolant water.. I have a few make and break engines.. that’s what we call them in Nova Scotia.. not hit and miss.. but I recently bought a hoag oil engine and I know nothing about it but I will learn from you.. thank you.. Andrew Mosher
Two stroke semi diesels seem to have been more popular in small portable sizes there than in the states. We had lots of huge Fairbanks Morse engines back in the pre electric days running everything that was not steam.
Yes, a bit weird that you didn't have any of these. In the states it seems to be as you say, huuuge engines on like 150hp and up, and smaller hit n' miss ones on up to 10hp. Not many mid-range ones.
Such a beautiful running engine! I love going to the antique equipment shows and seeing the old stationary engines running. Most of what I've seen here in the center of the USA is gasoline or drip gas from oil wells, I can't recall seeing diesel engines. Every time I see one of your videos pop up, I have to watch it. Even the fuel pump rebuild you did a while back was great, keep up the amazing work! 🙂
Dear Sir , i really so happy to see your video's especially on vintage machines and about valuable information sharing with us. I really so impressive and thankful to you everything. God bless you always 🙏 🎉❤
Go search for "stationary engines for sale" -- apparently you can still buy stationary diesel engines in this power range. MUCH smaller than the 1939 model in this video (modern 4-stroke high compression injection-timed diesel, I think). Should run cleaner, too, I'd guess. Quite cheap, though most likely you'll pay as much to ship to you as to buy the engine.
Great find Richard! Those old engines are amazing. I can see you have a lot of experience with them. I'd be interested in your truck too as older trucks are always interesting! Stay warm friend!
Greetings from sunny Florida 🌞 I love the old Scania truck, would definitely like to see a video on that! I’m glad you save all these old engines, they are history that not many people care about anymore. When I lived in Pennsylvania I used to go to the Rough and Tumble Engineers Historical Association, 33acres of all old equipment.
Thank you for showing and explaining these great pieces of history. Love the truck at the end of the video. I hope you will do a video on it. All my very best.
Dear Richard, I really enjoyed this. I would love to have such an engine, and drive emergency electricity generator off it. Best wishes from George in Herefordshire, UK
Hi there, good evening, 👍👍👍 this is marvellous!! It's like going back to the past!! Very well explained, thanks for sharing! I really enjoyed watching your video! Best regards, with season greetings from a small village in the middle of the Netherlands, for all of you stay healthy!!
Beast of an engine, loved it. There's a certain beauty to these old designs, fiddling non-stop with the controls like an organist with a Wurlitzer organ. Well done, Richard. It was worth subscribing. Cheers.
It is amazing to watch a skilled individual such as yourself handling these machines! I used to attend engine shows with my father, and large 2-stroke diesels were started with compressed air. It is outstanding that you can manipulate the flywheel and start this one!
Damn man, you know exactly what your doing don't you ? For a very old motor, you certainly have to prep everything before hitting it off. Very interesting video and your knowledge is becoming a thing of the past. Keep up the great work
Nice video, i think you should try with a better mic, you always have some nice information and it would be nice here you better and hear the different engines to.
Omg.....your channel is going to grow into a masterpiece!! Can I please come and play with these engines with you, I will work for very cheap!! Im not kidding lol..

Love that the autotext says music when the engine is running
Hahaha, yes better than most of todays music! /Richard

Hi and a huge thanks! Glad you like it. Greetings from Sweden!
Same here 😅
Glad TH-cam recommended this channel.
Very interesting video. You clearly enjoy this mechanical work and you are an excellent teacher. Looking forward to more. Stay well.
What he said! Really enjoyed your style of doing things! Be well.
Thank you all! /Richard
Love that you use vintage torches on a vintage machine. So happy I found your channel.
Hi! Thanks. Yes i like them old torches. Works very well. /Richard
A runaway on a hit and miss engine would be a terrifying thing to see!
That old Scania is some sweet truck, would be cool to see a bit about it too
Yes, the big 35hp ones weighs 3500kg. And the engine lifts from the ground when comming up in high (like 500) rpm. Not fun att all.
@@YesterdaysMachinery yep I'd be making for the door in long exaggerated steps if that thing went off at 500+rpm behind me
That's one hell of a lot of mass flying around 😱
I like how you explain all of the devices and how they work. Thank you!
Thanks! Yes, i try to explain because it's always interesting if you dont know as a wiewer. /Richard

definitely one of the best channels on utube...thank you
Thank you so much! Would not be anything without my followers! /Richard
Great old engine. Keep up the good work.
I love these old machines and your knowledge of them is amazing! They were so simple in design and due to their simplicity made to last forever! Absolutely genius!
Very cool seeing these old engines running. A testimony to simple design and quality manufacturing. Thank you.
Wow great video thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise and hello from Detroit Michigan USA
Hi! Nice to hear from Detroit. I have own quite a few cars from over there. A -56 Packard was my first car. /Richard
👍👌👏 Simply fantastic! Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards, luck and health to all of you.
Ye, it takes at least 3 times longer when filming than just working. /Richard
You are a master sir I do not worry about your enunciation you remind me of an old friend who's a master Carpenter from Switzerland
Great video. 82 years and still running.
Yes, it probably will 82 years from now also. /Richard
I love learning and watching how these oldtimers run.
Hi and thanks! /Richard
Very interesting and informative. Its nice to watch someone who really understands their machinery.
Thanks! /Richard
A very nice old engine, and a very well made video explaining the features of it. Looking forward to maybe seeing you putting the engine to work.
Thanks mate! /Richard
You have a brown leather vest on. You are my hero.

The piston holding the shelf is awesome! I'll have to do that 👍
Really like these old engines. Thanks
That engine runs really well. Good work.

Love the starting technique. Very nifty.
Dear Sir , i really so happy to see your video's especially on vintage machines and about valuable information sharing with us. I really so impressive and thankful to you everything. God bless you always 🙏 🎉❤
Like the sound of Scania, brings some memories back. Mostly of busses. 🙂
Excellent. Thank you for posting
Thanks! /R
Your knowledge is so comprehensive regarding these awesome machines, this was an awesome find.
what a lovely bit of old kit that’s made my day seeing that richard cheers great video x
Hi and thanks! /Richard
This engine seems to be running rather well, and this makes for a interesting video too.
Thanks for this.
Hi and thanks! /Richard
It's really interesting to me what you do don't ever stop!!!
So interesting the old engine technology. Thank you.
Absolutely fascinating ! You are a very knowledgeable young feller, thanks for sharing and best regards from an "old geezer" in Ireland.
Hi and thanks! /Richard
Enjoy your videos. Impressive stationary engine.
Thanks. I will have this one as a "User". /Richard
Richard are you sick? You are a madman. Just kidding, this is AWESOME!!! Keep up the good work! From Florida
Nice work. I am enjoying your videos.
Thank you! 😊 /Richard
Love those old engines I could watch them all day only wish I could get one for my own
Hi, yes i really enjoy them too. I have a 35hp oil engie in my sawmill. It is a joy to work with that beast working hard. /Richard
Another great video with an old engine, makes my Monday a happy day 👍
I wish someone would start building these. Using modern bearings ignition & cooling system. In a 8 to 12 horsepower. I'd buy 1 in a heartbeat!

Super stuff as always. Lovely engine with grace and power.
Hi and thanks! /Richard
Love the cover to the reed value, it is looking pretty solid.
Everything is solid cast iron. 1800kg total. /Richard
A very good explanation on that engine.
That is a really lovely engine, thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks mate! /Richard
Great find Richard! Those old engines are amazing. I can see you have a lot of experience with them. I'd be interested in your truck too as older trucks are always interesting! Stay warm friend!
Yes the old Scania will appear in a video soon! /Richard
I do like your shelf bracket!
Just amazing! Few people have ever heard a 2 stroke engine run like that!
Greetings from sunny Florida 🌞

Love your video's. Greetings from Canada.
It is amazing to watch a skilled individual such as yourself handling these machines! I used to attend engine shows with my father, and large 2-stroke diesels were started with compressed air. It is outstanding that you can manipulate the flywheel and start this one!
If it´s possible, i gonna give ten thumbs up to your videos !
Great stuff!
Love the channel, keep up the great work!
I also have several old Volvo’s.. yeah!! Andrew Mosher
Damn man, you know exactly what your doing don't you ?
For a very old motor, you certainly have to prep everything before hitting it off. Very interesting video and your knowledge is becoming a thing of the past. Keep up the great work

Another great video!
Nice video, i think you should try with a better mic, you always have some nice information and it would be nice here you better and hear the different engines to.
Yes, i will invest in one. /Richard
Love it. 😎
Very interesting video as always. It runs excellent, you have a skill for being able to do that.

❤ Hello Richard, in my opinion you should be the prime minister of your country.
uno de los mejores canales de youtube richard
UNDERBAR !! greeting form North Germany
...lookin' good, stay safe..
Very interesting.
bloodie good show mate !
Thanks mate!
Great entertainment ~ love your stuff
How does one learn to operate and repair such equipment? It's like you're a time traveler from 100 yrs ago. Your videos are fascinating.
Just learning by doing. Quite basic this engines really, but a bit scary at first. Everything is heavy. /Richard
Omg.....your channel is going to grow into a masterpiece!!
Can I please come and play with these engines with you, I will work for very cheap!! Im not kidding lol..
I would love to see the engine doing work, like saw mill or something else
Yes, i have run a stone crusher with it and that worked out grate. I have a 35hp crude oil engine running my sawmill. /Richard
Nice.
Hi and thanks! /Richard
