    Holy moly! Polish Belma horn/siren. This brings back childhood memories. Volunteer firefighters had an old truck with sirens and horns of this make. Unfortunately I can't spot an eagle on the turret - tank might be of polish make nonetheless. Edit: now that I look at it - there are polish insignia on the turret.

    They don't get addicted to Easy Start, if the engine is healthy it'll start if it's f'ed then it needs ether. Mind you it's an old Soviet tank so could have had it fitted from new considering the extreme cold.

    I never thought of it like that but that makes total sense. I remember an instructor at automotive tech school telling us some horse shit theory of why he thought diesel engines got addicted to easy start in that, his words, the cylinders became coked or some shit and...............I forgot what else he said after that. That instructor was a real crackpot and I hated his classes.

    It was drowning in easy start, could well be flooded. If you have you confirmed fuel injection and no excess water in fuel, sometimes the old blowtorch to superheat the induction air can help.

    I reckon the bottom end is fried, that is exactly how the V-2-34 V12s behave when they've spun every bearing... These old girls only had a life expectancy of about 12 miles, give or take. The way they worked was by throwing vast numbers of them at the opposition. Precisely the opposite to the way Germany handled things with their super-engineered beauties. What a life, eh? I wouldn't give you a fiver for it...

    Russian tanks of that era were made of such low quality steel that often they would develop cracks at stress points with no apparent reason. The whole Russian design philosophy was that a typical tank would last no longer than a month or two so they did not invest in making them both easy to work on or of high quality!

    1: Calling any of the tanks developed and produced by the USSR "russian" is a misnomer, as it completely negates the various different peoples of different ethnic background who worked together in the USSR. The correct title would be "Soviet", as in soviet tanks, soviet buildings etc. 2: The "russian" design philosophy is something i would like to see your source on. The actual reality of the situation that they were in (the first 2 years of the german invasion) is what lead the soviets into using all kinds of steel in production because of how desperate the times were.
