So I did some bad math. I noticed the main sound frequency the engine is throwing out is about 698 Hz, or theoretically 698 exhaust pulses per second. Multiply that by 60 for pulses per minute, divide that by 6 for 6 cylinders, and you'll get about 6980 exhaust pulses per minute. And since it's a 2 stroke, that means it's 6980 RPM, and because each cylinder has a power stroke each revolution (vs every other like a 4 stroke), it sounds like a 4 stroke running at 13960 RPM. I don't think I've ever wanted diesel nascar more than right now tbh. I could be completely wrong, who knows. It feels right though.

we had a 1977 Detroit Deisel and it survived 2 runaways at 6000 rpm. it finally died last year. we pulled it apart and it had thrown a rod. (not out the block mind you.) had signs of piston/valve contact on cylinder 4 3 and 6. and a snaped valve spring on cylinder 1. but surviving two diesel runaways? that thing was a trooper

I gotta tell you. I worked on these pieces of junk many years. I often wished I could have done this many times. This was a very satisfying video! Thank you! What happens is the collets on the valves fail and then the valves fall into the cylinders.

“Didn’t land any troops on the beaches of Normandy” that had me rolling 🤣🤣🤣

An ingenious way for a man to push start a truck for sure !

the way you started that thing was pure genius

Every time i thought it was gonna finally blow it didnt, just kept going. Incredible really

Hearing that 671 run brought back bad memories. Now I will have to go to therapy.

Gotta be an old 16 cylinder locomotive motor sitting around nearby ready for one last go around.

667,010 miles on the clock!! The thing for sure served its purpose!

Loved the delicate and respectful autopsy of the cab and donk 😄

I love the way you one man started it. If I had old junk like this I'd be doing the exact same thing.

That is AWESOME!!! I could only imagine how that sounds in person.

Now show me a Cat or Cummins running at 2x its max HP rpm and see how many seconds it lasts.

I could have put that in my Prius and now you’ve just wreaked it!

At first I was thinking "Oh, what a cool truck", then saw its old and ragged out. Probably the most valuable parts of that truck are the fifth wheel hitch and what's left in the fuel tank. (With current fuel prices.) It's definitely worth more as scrap weight.

Great! They make a nice sound at 3000+ rpm

I seen a lot of young guys break into driving on these piles. I seen where those engines did a days work... running air compressors on drill rigs. I worked for a guy who had gambling fever, so he would drill a pit for someone, take that money and bet the horses. He would catch two or more hundred dollar place but never the big payouts. I didn't have anything better to do... he is saying if it will just bore a few more holes, I will get back on top again... I made it run and had old engine oil from other rigs changes... just kept it in oil.... I will be dipped in owl poop, that sorry engine kinda tightened up and started running good for what ever reason. I tried hard to get him to sell it while there was a dollar to be made but nope an I told him that that last engine was the last save, no more. It ran great for a few weeks... we had walked down from the pit to eat in the shade, he had left it running. I was just taking a bite of cold food (tastes better than nothing) and seen some white smoke a curling in the air... he was going to run up and try to shut it down but I just hung onto him... and just when I was about to second guess myself, that motor made the god awfullest sound and ran against the governor not more than a couple minutes and then "Bang".... no more tuning on that crap hole that left you black walking by it.
