My old commander Chatty Taylor RIP, after leaving the army went to work on the maintenance team at the tank museum at Bovington. On my travels I popped in to see him now and again. He told me a story once that a T34 was parked up over night on a low loader. It was going to be used as a target at Lulworth. Discovering that it was a better example then the one they had in the museum, they swapped them over night.
Most people want the newest of everything, very few want the old stuff and even less know how to make it work. I'd like to see just about any piece of machinery from today's day in 70 years' time, I severely doubt any new vehicles (2015+) will even exist in 70 years let alone be functional. With what they make cars out of now days one would you'd be lucky if it wasn't a pile of iron dust aluminium dust and plastic in 60 years time. Takes a good person to keep an old girl running like that.
Great to see the EGR valve is working well in the shed🤣. Well done ladies and gents. T34 were notoriously tough to drive and a good work out on the steering levers, but apparently changing gear in them is a whole new experience. Coming on well.
@@mr.waffentrager4400 you know what they say about mushrooms? They are kept in the dark and fed 💩. Never heard of the video you're referring too. But you play war thunder right? So changing gear is so easy in war thunder so it must be a myth.
@@mr.waffentrager4400 go watch any reputable history video or talk on the T34. Even look up the tank museum's tank chat who outline how difficult it is to change gear and operate a T34 before making throw away supposed fact comments. Especially to a former tank crewman.
GRETA has definitely left the building! But seriously getting to see the internals of a t34 Injection pump was awesome! I would assume these tanks were easier to start when they were new.
Greta is nothing more than puppet, doing what her dad and moms owners are telling. Easier.. maybe. Easy... absolutely no. Just look how complex that start setup is. Least there is two different systems to do it.
The engines are amazing, we watched him getting the injection pump to work using a couple of sockets, screwdriver and a pair of pliers, 80 years later they're still using a variant of it, if the clock's not broke and all that
@@charlesuplifted5216 Did you watch the video? The guys repaired an injection pump using very simple tools. that's some edge as for low quality. More people have died at the barrels of an AK47 than any other weapons system in history, they're the most reliable weapon ever invented
@zambotv8150 low quality by Western standards. I heard it once described that Soviet quality is a washing machine that breaks every six months but can be repaired with a screwdriver and pliers in 10 minutes. Western quality is a washing machine that break every 5 years but takes a toolbag and a day.
@@zacharyprovance3128 We're brainwashed against Russia and Russians in the West. Their space program, rocket and sub tech are world beating... Diesel injection pumps are very complicated, intricate pieces of equipment, they usually need specialists with specialist tools to fix and calibrate them, it's ASTONISHING they got that to work using such basic tools, underestimate them at your/our peril

Cheers for putting up so much content lately fellas!! I’ve been stuck in the hospital for the last 20 days with a severely broken leg after a decent crash so you’ve definitely helped pass some time!! Keep up the great videos and keep having fun!!
Know exactly where you are. In my case two weeks in hospital with broken tib and fib and still pretty well bed bound 8 weeks later with still full cast from bum to toe. You tube is such a help!!!. You don’t go into detail with your accident, I fell onto stone steps, from an unprotected platform,at the step pyramid saqquara.

I literally only just stumble the cross your channel maybe 3 or 4 hours ago and watch the very first video I've ever seen or someone just casually working on a tank in their house, then you upload a video actually getting it started and driving around the backyard.

Amazing video! And please don't paint the outside of the tank! Seeing the original paint is amazing and rare! Every single restoration tends to just blast it in cheap paint and most of them look bad. Seeing the faded green really makes this tank look amazing! Fantastic work!

Nice work guys. Great to see it running. I recently read Blood Red Snow and seeing this running reminded me of the terror these tanks put into the German troops on the Russian front.
Watching your videos I sometimes get used to being mad just because I like motorcycles but I realise there is people crazier than me keep it up. That’s really good watching your Vids. The world needs no more Madness, there’s too many people trying to be serious, good onya Michael
hello, looking at your video from T-34 I feel like in a Polish series [, Four armored men and a dog], I see in the video that the tank served in the Polish army, so many thanks for its renovation 👍👊💪
^^^ I've heard about THAT Polish T.V series - T.34/85mm & the Dog's name is "RUDY" It's a Tier.7 Premium tank in the online game "World of Tanks BLITZ" & I bought several (I've got x 3 accounts) Wasn't it filmed in 'Black & White' ????? Late 1960's right ?? But re-screened as repeats in 1980's/1990's ????
@@hawnyfox3411 yes, this film was shot in 1966 in black and white, now you can see it in color like all old films, every time I watch this film I remember the good times of Polish comedy in black and white 😉😊
So wonderful! To Hear That beauty Come Back To Life and Then Move On His Own Power. WOW Just WOW! I can Not!! Imagine What All OF You Felt Like when he Started. OMG.. Just BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!
There for a bit, I was thinking, "Oh bugger, the tank is on fire!" Glad to see you got it running without it actually burning anything up! I have had to start old diesil engines on occasion, and they can be a pain! I just found your channel, and I am going through your postings now! I fear that I have found yet another way to waste time.☹️ Oh well, looks interresting, and good to see some old piece of history running again! Whish you lots of luck!🙂
Love this T-34/85 Serries. It's such an iconic machnine. Keep the content comming guys, It's fucking awesome watching you guys bring this tank back to life.
It is called and anti dribble valve. I used to rebuilds and calibrate pumps like that. They are simple and you can calibrate the yourselves. If you have low compression , you can put a small amount of engine oil in to get it going. I have built many engines, injection pumps and injectors. Was just about to start manufacture of injector pumps before I left. I see lots of incomplete combustion so not all cylinders are firing.
Really enjoy the videos. I haven’t been watching you all that long so I have no idea is this a business or a hobby. Might be worth while giving more information why you have each of these tanks if it’s a business and what work you have been asked to do etc.
10:39 Look..... It's moving....... It's alive.... ITS ALIVE!! Congrats on getting your T-34 running, Can't wait to see more videos regarding it in the future.
Don't over use the easy start it can cause top ring breakage and or top ring groove land breakage due to over pressure. Many years ago I worked at Wellworty LTD we use to examine piston failures easy start caused quite a few problems!! I found butane gas in the inlet for a petrol engine worked well it does not wet the plugs. Keep up the good work !
Always good to have optional routing available for the injector pipes, 1: put it on the engine, 2: insert it in Jack….. And I owe the met office an apology, I’ve been cursing them for p**s poor forecasts because it’s been so cloudy round here, now I know the truth, it was Joe’s disco inferno smoke machines (plural cos’ I’m including the beemer). Sterling work chaps!
Wooow Nice T-34 from my homeland Poland ! Its Polish version, with Polish words on dashboard like temperatura or maksymalne ciśnienie oleju (max Oil pressure) 😁
When I was a kid I remember seeing my Grandfather & Uncle (farmers) using blowtorches to help start grumpy old diesel tractors & excavators in winter. I spent some time tinkering with my daily (a 1995 6 pot BMW turbodiesel) over this Christmas & New Year just gone. The injection pump was leaking from the govener seals, plus all the bleed down hoses between the injectors & back to the pump were dozed and sweating fuel. Replacing the seals & hoses was fairly simple. Getting it to fire up and run properly after putting it all back together wasn't. I've been hankering after the next T34 video.
I'm from the internet and I know best comment: soaking the cylinders in atf or something similar can help free up stuck rings. But ether and fire seems more dangerous and thus fun.
That chamferred part in the fuel pump is a discharge non return valve and most diesel pumps have them in some form or another. On large 2 stoke diesels (780 mm bore) they are sometimes controlled as can be the inlet non return valve. So you can have controlled inlet or controlled discharge. With the latest engines which are common rail the inlet and discharge is controlled so it varies the timing of the fuel and amount. This is done with electronics and solenoid valves on each injector. If you are using the crankshaft and main bearings of the T50 engine I would certainly inspect all the crankshaft bearings as you have got it so far stripped. When using a Bahco adjustable spanner always make sure that the weight is applied to the fixed jaw, not the adjustable jaw as this tends to strain it and it bends thus rendering the jaws out of parallel causing it to slip off the nut. As a matter of interest what thread form is used on Russian equipment? Any of the Western ones ( UNF/C, BSW, Metric) or something peculiar to Russia? I am enjoying watching your videos, having spent 10 years as a Marine Engineer Officer with Diesel Engined ships, following a 5 year Marine Apprenticeship. Retired now.
Watching this, all I could think of was giving it an italian tune-up, go to town and grab a burger or something. Nobody'll stop you, Really, nobody can stop you
The gas torch and spraying either at the sametime is a belter of inspiration...what could possibly go wrong..love it.
lol , to ( mis ) quote Ghostbusters .. Do not cross the streams
This time the whole engine bay is not swimming in petrol like on ARV. The safety has improved considerably!
At least you had plenty of fire extinguishers!
Well I’ve delivered them plenty of extinguishers!
The HSE must love that farm.

Nice work guys. Great to see it running. I recently read Blood Red Snow and seeing this running reminded me of the terror these tanks put into the German troops on the Russian front.
Great book that. When he deliberately infected his wound so he could avoid being a soviet prisoner!
The swarm of bees was a funny one too.
Nice!!! I used to be a T55 tank crew member back in Romania. Much nicer tank, than the T34.
Watching your videos I sometimes get used to being mad just because I like motorcycles but I realise there is people crazier than me keep it up. That’s really good watching your Vids. The world needs no more Madness, there’s too many people trying to be serious, good onya Michael
Nice to see you have a large selection of log of win to put on the back when she's all sorted.
Loved following this one, sometimes it is who you know and not what you know. Great Video as always bud 👍
hello, looking at your video from T-34 I feel like in a Polish series [, Four armored men and a dog], I see in the video that the tank served in the Polish army, so many thanks for its renovation 👍👊💪
^^^
I've heard about THAT Polish T.V series - T.34/85mm & the Dog's name is "RUDY"
It's a Tier.7 Premium tank in the online game "World of Tanks BLITZ" & I bought several (I've got x 3 accounts)
Wasn't it filmed in 'Black & White' ????? Late 1960's right ?? But re-screened as repeats in 1980's/1990's ????
@@hawnyfox3411 yes, this film was shot in 1966 in black and white, now you can see it in color like all old films, every time I watch this film I remember the good times of Polish comedy in black and white
😉😊
It's always nice to see "living" polish made T-34/85M2.
Learning all the time , thanks for sharing Joe
YES Well done guys 👌👍Bet your neighbours love you
Love seeing a bit of success,well done boys,good job.
So wonderful! To Hear That beauty Come Back To Life and Then Move On His Own Power. WOW Just WOW! I can Not!! Imagine What All OF You Felt Like when he Started. OMG.. Just BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!
There for a bit, I was thinking, "Oh bugger, the tank is on fire!"
Glad to see you got it running without it actually burning anything up!
I have had to start old diesil engines on occasion, and they can be a pain!
I just found your channel, and I am going through your postings now!
I fear that I have found yet another way to waste time.☹️
Oh well, looks interresting, and good to see some old piece of history running again!
Whish you lots of luck!🙂
Oh no, tank is on fire, what should we do?
I wish I could help seen the neighbors faces when a tank came smoking out of your garage!! I want one; greetings from Montana!
Love this T-34/85 Serries. It's such an iconic machnine. Keep the content comming guys, It's fucking awesome watching you guys bring this tank back to life.
There's only one thing to say : YOU GUYS ARE AWSOME ! Thank you very much for that really entertaining content !
Nice to see the old girl running you just need a German vehicle for it to Chase now😂😂
Knowing what we know now, this is jaw-droppingly amazing that it ran so well. Absolutely astounding.
It is called and anti dribble valve. I used to rebuilds and calibrate pumps like that. They are simple and you can calibrate the yourselves. If you have low compression , you can put a small amount of engine oil in to get it going. I have built many engines, injection pumps and injectors. Was just about to start manufacture of injector pumps before I left. I see lots of incomplete combustion so not all cylinders are firing.
Thanks for that . I will tell Bladimir Putin when he takes them off the monuments to help his war effort
Really enjoy the videos. I haven’t been watching you all that long so I have no idea is this a business or a hobby. Might be worth while giving more information why you have each of these tanks if it’s a business and what work you have been asked to do etc.

Look..... It's moving....... It's alive.... ITS ALIVE!!
Congrats on getting your T-34 running, Can't wait to see more videos regarding it in the future.
80 years old and still going. They knew how to build them in those days. Whats next to get that to stay running?
Don't over use the easy start it can cause top ring breakage and or top ring groove land breakage due to over pressure. Many years ago I worked at Wellworty LTD we use to examine piston failures easy start caused quite a few problems!! I found butane gas in the inlet for a petrol engine worked well it does not wet the plugs. Keep up the good work !
I plan to rebuild the engine so I’m not fussed
@@MrHewes more 'ether addiction' bollocks 🙄
Crack on Joe 👌🏼
@@LordMuck
Its not bollox, if you understood how a diesel engine works, you'd know this ...cretin 🙄
This is the best video I have ever watched, blow torch and a can of easy start job done
Always good to have optional routing available for the injector pipes, 1: put it on the engine, 2: insert it in Jack….. And I owe the met office an apology, I’ve been cursing them for p**s poor forecasts because it’s been so cloudy round here, now I know the truth, it was Joe’s disco inferno smoke machines (plural cos’ I’m including the beemer). Sterling work chaps!
Давай там поаккуратнее с нашей техникой!
Легенды должны жить!
Моя бабушка собирала эти танки!
Она не ваша. Ваша техника у вас.
That looks super impressive. I would love to work on those machines. I am building a tracked vehicle with some friends.
Wooow Nice T-34 from my homeland Poland ! Its Polish version, with Polish words on dashboard like temperatura or maksymalne ciśnienie oleju (max Oil pressure) 😁
Great to see it moving again, i don't think i would ever get in one of those looks way to small haha.
ITS ALIVE, ITS ALIVE !!
Cheers From California 😎
That motor was ready for overhaul after 32 hours of run time. This one is way overdue.
Dasvidania!
Really? The service interval was 32 hours?
@@HE-162 according to the Soviet Army field manual...
@@notyou6950 not doubting you, just surprised. What does it say is required to be done at the interval?
A perfect symphony!
AY IT'S A POLISH ONE! Didn't know that! We made like 1400 of them so quite interesting. This one seems to be T-34/85M2 ver.
When I was a kid I remember seeing my Grandfather & Uncle (farmers) using blowtorches to help start grumpy old diesel tractors & excavators in winter.
I spent some time tinkering with my daily (a 1995 6 pot BMW turbodiesel) over this Christmas & New Year just gone. The injection pump was leaking from the govener seals, plus all the bleed down hoses between the injectors & back to the pump were dozed and sweating fuel.
Replacing the seals & hoses was fairly simple. Getting it to fire up and run properly after putting it all back together wasn't.
I've been hankering after the next T34 video.
I'm from the internet and I know best comment: soaking the cylinders in atf or something similar can help free up stuck rings. But ether and fire seems more dangerous and thus fun.
That chamferred part in the fuel pump is a discharge non return valve and most diesel pumps have them in some form or another. On large 2 stoke diesels (780 mm bore) they are sometimes controlled as can be the inlet non return valve. So you can have controlled inlet or controlled discharge. With the latest engines which are common rail the inlet and discharge is controlled so it varies the timing of the fuel and amount. This is done with electronics and solenoid valves on each injector.
If you are using the crankshaft and main bearings of the T50 engine I would certainly inspect all the crankshaft bearings as you have got it so far stripped.
When using a Bahco adjustable spanner always make sure that the weight is applied to the fixed jaw, not the adjustable jaw as this tends to strain it and it bends thus rendering the jaws out of parallel causing it to slip off the nut.
As a matter of interest what thread form is used on Russian equipment? Any of the Western ones ( UNF/C, BSW, Metric) or something peculiar to Russia?
I am enjoying watching your videos, having spent 10 years as a Marine Engineer Officer with Diesel Engined ships, following a 5 year Marine Apprenticeship. Retired now.
Watching this, all I could think of was giving it an italian tune-up, go to town and grab a burger or something. Nobody'll stop you, Really, nobody can stop you
Well done chaps , jobs a good'un .
It lives! Nice work chaps
Your vehicle meets my eco concerns 😉🤣best of british to you guys for getting it running
Great to see them going and getting made to run better and to thing these to take on the german tanks.and a great respect
You should mount some frickin' laser beams, that, with the fog, you'd have a real spectacle! ☁
Love it , "there's more fat on a chip" 😉☺️
So British guys, one inh a german jacket, fixxing a russian tank hahaha i love it
Fantastic work well chuffed for you
Hewsey, next time you need to cackle "IT'S ALIIIIVE!" when you next start one of your Frankenstein wannabes.
WOW, it sounds fantastic; well done.
Great job getting it going again. It smokes almost as much as my Guiberson tank engine!
Great vid , that motor sounds good , tanks for sharing 💨💨👍
The goblin face at 13:28 was truly something to see
Nice pucker up faces when driving tank 😂and the choreography instructor
If you filmed in black and white driving round the farm it would be like an old war film.
The button on the tiller helps you engage the steering.
Now I noticed that it is a Polish post-war T 34 tank, I envy the fun
Похоже на то, что не все цилиндры работают, либо момент зажигания не правильно выставили. Ещё на воздух в топливной системе похоже.
Момент зажигания? Впрыска.
Can't have guns, but everyone gets a tank.
what an absolute monster.
Ну вот теперь можно на Берлин как в 45 м!
"Эти" скорее хохлам отдадут пхах )
Молодец чувак! Советская техника даже спустя почти 100 лет работает! 😀
