those bloody trains would drive me insane --------keep up the great work

I love old equipment like this

You're never to old to start one

Simplicity is the way to go. Nothing complicated here. I love this vintage machinery. Great video !

Love your laid back, common-sense approach to engines and slow, steady pace. You remind me of a guy I know here in Florida---------me. Life rolls on and the pleasure of fiddling with old antique engines sure adds a lot. I've got 'em in my blood and I sure an grateful. Keep up the good work and pleasant approach.

Just picked up my first engine, a LA and your vids have been helpful. Thanks!

I love those hit and miss engines. You are definitely the expert. Thanks for cranking that bad boy up.

Heard Cody mention you this morning. Watched a couple of videos. From one old hippy to another, I'm hooked. Lord bless you.

I love these old engines. Thanks for firing it up.

I have no idea what I'd use one for, but now I want one. Thanks for the lesson!

Thanks for making this video, several things in there to help me get mine started when I try tomorrow. EDIT: I actually went back out to my shop in the country where my engines are after dinner and cleaned my points, regained my spark oiled everything up and fired it up. Runs like a top again. Thanks a ton for publishing the things you do.

Good to know i learned something today thanks shopdog.

Enjoyed watching. Glad Cody mentioned you. I know he will find this helpful. Oh and I'm a subscriber now.

Its so satisfying seeing the engine get going.

Nice video Sam. I was relieved to see you post a new video as I was worried about you after hearing of the tornado outbreak in Arkansas. Be well my friend.

Thanks for the engine start Sam !! Hope those twisters are leaving ya alone ..

Sure enjoy watching the master at work. Nice old engine, too! ;)

Have my eye on one of these, and lacking much engine sense, I find your videos incredibly helpful Sam.

William Powell ,,, i'll start this one up in a few days,,, thanks,,

I have enjoyed your videos and I will have me one or twenty of these engines some day. I have some antique flat belt driven farm equipment and when I get them together I will find an engine to pull them. You seem to have a lot of little tips and insight into these old engines and you sharing this on here for others is priceless. I really appreciate your effort cause this kind of information needs to be handed down. Thanks again.

Boy you talk about a vanishing form of knowledge. Thanks for sharing! I certainly love the sound of these old girls.. Funny the other video you have from the 4th , that engine reminded me of the old guys on Hee Haw . When it started running I could just hear those guys slapping their legs and hips doing the old Hillbilly "Heave haw" making those crazy sounds...! lol thanks..

This'd be the very first of your videos I have watched Sam. I liked it and I believe I like you too Sam. Not in no "FUNNY" kinda way but,I like'ya. Simple statements,no need makin shit any more complicated than need be. Good job man!!

Hey Sam, I do believe I have one of the Internatinal hay presses (mine is a 1937 I think) that you are talking about. The engine on mine is solid rust with a missing head. Piston is rusted into the cylinder and looks like its all one piece. But it does have a good radiator mounted on top of the engine. There's probably some other parts missing off it too. The rest of the press is operable and looks real good.

HOT DAM FINALLY RAN.

Nice video, Sam...good, interesting stuff. I always learn something when I watch your channel. How much rain did you get?

Great video Gandalf! Would show us the use of that engine in the Shire?

GOOD GOB

Thanks for the clearances , what would be the clearance on the intake pushrod? did I miss that one? got the exhaust at .008 to .010 and the points gap at .020 and also plug gap at .020

wow

Wow

I would like the specs on the crank you used on the radiator cooled LB engine so I can get one made.

Since you say (leave a comment), i will! Never hold a crank handle with your thumb around it, put you thumb on the same side as the rest of your fingers so if the engine kicks back it doesn't brake your thumb off! and tie your hair back before it gets caught in the flywheel! maaaaan.... it's like watching rowan atkinson about to stuff something up and hurt himself. but nice engine, and enjoy running it.

Now that is a " proper" gas can!

could you do a video of how to time this motor if the mag was off or is ther a specific way to time it?

After a lot of foreplay the climax blows rings out its arse.

I just bought a LM 3-5 international harvester. Cylinder got water in it . Needs boring or bore and a sleeve . Where can I get parts or get machined work. Head needs rebuilding also .

great video sam what is the clearance on the intake push rod, you said the exhaust push rod clearance is 8 to 10 thousands cheers bud keep up the good work
