Hi! I too share your passion for all ICE’s! As an ex marine engineer I worked with Paxman Valenta and Ventura V16s. We used to say “ ….if it isn’t leaking oil, it hasn’t got any oil”. My favourite is without doubt the Lister engine so sweet and so reliable. A good friend of mine had a small yacht with a Lister auxiliary single cylinder engine (his iron topsail!) and the starting routine was almost religious! PS:- only kidding but you nearly ran out of superlatives after that ethereal Fairbanks motor!!!!!! Subscribed, cheers!

I have been an engineer all my life and to me these machines are MUSIC - I can actually FALL ASLEEP next to one it is amazing! Especially the big Fairbanks Morse engines!

I always looked forward to getting the command from control to "prepare to snorkel". Loved cranking the ships Fairbanks-Moorse 38 8-1/8 over with air and hearing her catch and fire! The heat, smell, noise, and vibration was very relaxing to this submariner!

Couple engine comments. Back in the mid 1960's when I was a teenager I visited my Aunt in Smackover Arkansas. She took me to an oil field outside of town and showed me the layout where a huge hit and miss engine was running and pushing and pulling rods that fanned out from it to a number of oil well rocking beam pumps. All of them run by this one engine. She told me how as kids, they would come out here and 'walk the rods, balancing and walking on the steel rods that first went one way and then came back. She then demonstrated by getting on one of the moving rods and walking like a stroll in the park. She was 84 years old at that time. I went back around 1988 for my uncles funeral with my family and we looked at that oil field, it was all gone, had been reclaimed and had trees and foliage on a place that used to nothing but many acres of oil soaked land. In my work, I had two of those Detroit diesels back to back turning a 150KW generator. On a routine start and run up for maintenance, both diesels ran away and and the overspeed failed to shut them down, the generator fan came apart and blasted out of its housing peppering the walls of the engine room with shrapnel. Quite the event to be in there when that happened, and boy did those engines scream. Luckily nobody was injured. Neither diesel was damaged, a new housing and fan installed and back in business, after replacing the bad overspeed control.

Awesome video 👍👍👍. Never ever get tired of hearing a 2 stroke Detroit. I worked on 2 strike Detroits and Deutz air cooled V engines used in underground mining equipment. Those Deutz’s are good engines but the parts are spendy . Also the Caterpillar D399 engines are a hard pushing SOB. I worked on a lot of them in tow boats on the Columbia River System. Nothing like hitting the Air Start on a V-12 D399 and hearing that engine roll over, it was like a 12 inch diameter steel shaft on bear steel, it was kinda nuts, but they fired right up. The fuel injection system was not to great compared to today’s engines and they pull out a lot of black smoke like all diesel engines did. Nothing like standing on the deck of a towboat at 7 am a fall morning on the river crisp clean air , the smell of beacon frying on the stove in the boat’s galley and your out on the rear deck with a cup of hot coffee and they light off those D399 with the black diesel smell smoke mixed in with it all, doesn’t get any better then thst,👍👍👍👍.

I was waiting for the Commer TS3 knocker engine. A two stroke, three cylinder diesel with six horizontally opposed pistons, with a blower. When I was a kid these engines always made a different sound to anything else but I never knew why. I know it's a matter of personal preference, but for me it's a toss up between the sound of a RR Merlin or TS3 as number one. Thanks for uploading all those great sounds.

These antique engines are the engines we will have fight over when zombie apocalypse happens.

I had a pair of Paxman 12-YHAM engines. 60litre V-12, but unmanageable by one person as (boat) propulsion engines. When built, they were run at valve-bounce speed for 3 days before shipping. I grew up on a barge that had a 3-cylinder Bolinder.

Some very impressive technology there I wish I would have their knowledge!

i can listen to those fairbanks morse engines all day long, just so beautiful, not big hp but could turn over a building . if you got to close to that flywheel you would have a bad day fast.

When I was a young child I the 1960s our family would visit my widowed grandmother. On her rural property was a joinery and woodworking shop my grandfather had built. Every machine in the shop was belt driven off a single wooden shaft that ran the entire length of the building. Outside was a large belt driven flywheel but the driving engine had been taken away. As kids we would wind up the flywheel by hand and take turns using the machines inside. Looking back we were lucky not to have lost a finger or two.

I remember seeing an old "steam engine fair" at Belvoir Castle, Leicestershire, England, back in 1977. and it so amazed this young American Airman that his bucket list is topped by a return to Belvior Castle and the magic of those steam engines of years past.

Working in the oilfield on drilling rigs; open hole. The job I preferred was what they called a motorman. I worked around these "Screaming" Detroit v8s. Workhorse. They had Caterpillar and even Waukesha [ run off wellhead gas.]

I ran a Unit Rig Lectra Haul 170-ton truck with a V16 Detroit. That thing was amazing. Compared to the CAT and Cumnings engines, it was just instant power. No wind up nessasary.

I'm convinced that it's these engines and others like them that influenced the development of music in late 1800s including Jazz. They revolutionize the concept of beat.

wow, would never have spotted the massively obvious engine on the thumbnail if it had not been for that big red arrow .... thank you so much !!!

Thanks for posting TF. Just like you I love these old power units, especially the one that blew smoke rings but for the sound, my money's on the beast at 9:39, such a mesmeric sound and tone. What I find so funny is on the newest battery Ferrari they want to keep the distinctive sound and have to make something up that'll work like the real thing. It's wonderful & impressive to see these old beasts still working and being lovingly cared for, but it's the old Rolls Royce aircraft units that floats my boat and I'd love to put one into a motorbike frame. In my work as a lime plasterer we had a diesel motor powering the works 2 ton pug mixer. This was 2 metal rollers rotating on a shaft on top of a metal base and we'd shovel the sand and slaked lime in with the wheels which would crush any big lumps of aggregate in the mixing mortar. The only problem was starting it, you needed 2 people, one to turn the starting handle and one to flip the switch when the person on the starting handle said to do it.

The one at 10 min was bananas. And a blown 540 in a car? That’s basically a monster truck motor. Sounds sick.

A great big YES on the Detroit Diesel: they are music. But these are all pretty awesome.

In my opinion, the first one sounded the best and the others just sounded like the tractors and combines that i go to listen during the summers in the country.

That first truck after 9 months 🤱

Took shop mechanics in High School. 3 hours a day every afternoon my senior year. That was 1973, now I am 67 and thinking about buying a small briggs and stratton mower tomorrow... Bought a new house with a 3/4 acre yard, grass getting away!!! Never regretted Mechanics shop, never dreaded coming to class and we got to take things apart put them together and lots of humor about little things that did not quite make sense. Once you know the deal, all engines, especially 4 cyles, follow a logical conclusion. However with modern engines and the computers, more like running a background check and then replacing electronic components. In those days a feeler gage a certain kind of twist with the wrench and listen for the best sound heard from the engine to include, exhaust, valves, and rocker arms. Big engines designed to be tinkered with and to be maintained. Never let you down, and amaze you with their sticktoittiveness!!!

The Fairbanks Morse Model 32D engines in your video appear to be four cylinder, not six. The Air Start operation was performed by the operator using a bar in the flywheel holes to turn one cylinder to just past Top Dead Centre. Compressed air was then released into that cylinder, pushing the piston down to start turning the engine. The other cylinders then fired in sequence by compression ignition. The bar was not used to "inflate the cylinders with air".

That 1936 Fairbanks Morse sounds like something Willy Wonka would have in his factory, I love it.

was in the UK on a train platform when a Napier Deltic powered train went past, i still remember that awesome sound

I love that at 4:11 the Fairbanks Morse casually blows smoke rings, then full bore spits smoke rings!

5:19 the bar in the flywheel was not to inflate the cylinders with air. This was to get the engine barred over into starting position, at which time the cylinder valves would be open so there would be zero compression allowing the task to be completed.. The air for starting came from an air compressor and tank that was precharged prior to starting.

@davelowets

Жыл бұрын

Wrong... If the "valves were open" when the starting air was introduced, the air would go RIGHT OUT the ports, NOT move the piston at ALL, and the engine would do NOTHING. They are barring the engine over to get it in the right position so that any ports or "valves" are closed, and the piston is at the top dead center of the cylinder so that the air that they introduce to start it is trapped and will act upon the piston, pushing it down, and getting the engine to rotate.

It's got a good beat and it's easy to dance to.

I think it's the sound of realised potential and promise.

I realize these machines are antiques however I recognize many cast iron parts very similar to castings I poured, cleaned at McNally Pittsburg Foundry 1979... for the oil field and coal industry. Especially the big flywheels. I was involved with every step except core setting. We specialized in heavy difficult castings . I never got to see the castings assembled or painted.

I use to work on those old Detroit 2 cycle diesel generators like the one in the video. Lots of smoke and pollution. The Suffolk county water Authority had a V16 2 cycle diesel at the old Brentwood pumping station. It had a 2’ diameter exhaust pipe sticking out of the control building.

The exhaust system on some of these things were absolutely HUGE! I was a contractor working on a building that was going to be a new Casino. There was a huge generator that had a 24 cylinder, 1704c.i. Detroit Diesel, with quad turbos, and 2 roots blowers on it, for back-up power to the entire facility. The "muffler" for the engine was lying on the floor of what was to be the future generator room, and it was large enough that I could stoop down inside the pipe, crawl into the muffler, and just about stand up. The thing was MASSIVE! I still have pictures around somewhere of me doing this.. 😆 Edit: I was there the day the installers finished getting it installed, fired up, and then load tested it. That thing absolutely ROARED when it got up close to maximum load. It was crazy.. Sounded like it was revving to the moon, but it was less than 2000 RPMs.(I believe it was 1200 RPMs for a 480 volt, 3-phase, 60hz system). The "Screamin Jimmy" nickname they earned was quite appropriate..

Rather interesting how the two Fairbanks engines has a musical rhythm to them before getting up to speed, almost like a brass instrument.

Definitely have to take Evelen Woodheads speed reading coarse in order to to get the captions. Love the Deutz

A farmer friend asked me if I could try to get an air cooled V12 Deutz Diesel engine running for him, the engine powered a mobile crane that had sat in one of his fields in all weathers untouched for over a decade, I checked the oil level and worked the fuel lift pump until I felt fuel pressure, then with a new battery on it, I gave it a crank on the starter to see what would happen and incredibly the engine started straight up and ran perfectly with almost no smoke! I formed a strong impression right there that these V12 Deutz Diesel engines were very well designed and made..

Don't know whether that V8 Detroit was a 8V72 or 92, but I drove a Kenworth K100A that had one and I can't begin to describe the awesome power it had! I was lucky enough to have owned a K100A myself with a Cummins KT450. A legendary engine, capable of power and torque like I've never seen in a big truck engine. So much, that often Cummins would purposely derate the timing to reel back the power. Because they could climb hills in higher gears and higher speeds. But beyond the torque that the tires could take. They'd blow out from overheating!
