    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.

      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.

    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.

      *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.*

    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.

    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 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.

    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. 😕

    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 :)

  • @davybloggs1564

    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!

    Jimmy, you have a Rotax 532 fitted in that Jenny.
    Its a single ignition points ignition water cooled 2 stroke. The lityle reservour on the top is 2 stroke oil for the cross shaft.
    There is no oil injection on this. Its a 50:1 oil fuel mix in the tank.

    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.

    If there’s not much smoke it just means it probably has the correct mixture I have run rotax for years and if properly mixed and when warm it won’t smoke much and a two stroke without oil mix won’t run very long.
