That engine is a large series 1929 Buick engine. That hole is in the heat exchanger, the valves control the carb heat… duct tape will do nothing but melt. Just set the valves to closed until you replace the pipe. The engine will run fine at closed setting. That is a great engine, it even has roller lifters and a harmonic equalizer on the crankshaft. There are insert bearings in the rods and mains. The only weak point is the fiber timing gear… replace that with a cast metal gear and you are good to go. Yours turns easy so it will probably run fine once the ignition is gone through. My 1929 Buick had a small series engine and has set for maybe 50 years… the crankshaft needed a light Emory paper cleanup and new bearings from the local Napa store. Ran great until the fiber gear failed… with an available metal gear all was fine!

I hope you did a bit more to it . That old truck sounded like it wanted to run . You are right about the fuel cannister being vacuum driven . Those were a float / valve type that would fill then shut off the vacuum until it got low again , then open the vacuum to fill it back up . That one would be worth some money restored . Probably the grandaddy of our modern wreckers today . It would probably clear up if it ran more , unstick the rings .

But it also shows just how much planned obsolescence there is today. If they could make trucks that lasted this long almost a century ago they could do so today. It's just that car makers don't want to do that because they get most of their money from repairs. The reason many cars are difficult to repair these days is actually on purpose. To make sure they can charge you more.

Besides, I haven't heard of any Oklahomans screaming at people with Cali plates, have you? Nor people pelting such folks with rocks or running them over with tractors as happened when the Okies went West during the Dust Bowl. To call them (modern day Californians) "refugees" shows a complete lack of understanding of how the American job and housing markets work. Someone who's lower/working class in Cali would equate to upper middle class in the Midwest. It's a no wonder people who aren't well off are moving. It's what happens when you have a bunch of corrupt neo-liberals in charge instead of people either on the left or right who know how to properly allocate money and put a stop to homelessness. You could stick either somebody fiscally Conservative Mitt Romnery or loose like FDR in California and either way it would be run better than the current Dem leadership there is doing.

I've often wondered, what would you restore on something in this state? The whole body is rusted through - you'd only really keep the engine block and transmission at most. The rest is toast. It's not really a restoration when you're replacing almost everything...

Most of that original smoke was the marvel oil, and other stuff you put in the cylinders.. Reminds me of when I got my 1942 generator started for the first time. First started hitting on one cyl, then 2, and gradually all 6 kicked in, and it smoothed out.

Hes not a cowboy so that makes sense that this guy knows how too

I had a 29 Chevy coupe "survivor" that I was able to easily get running. It actually ran with the original ignition coil for a short time, but I later had to replace with a later model (1950's style) 6v coil. Yes, those are vacuum canisters that draw fuel from the gas tank to the carb. I think it was straight 30 weight oil I ran and even though it stayed slightly wet with oil on the outside, it didn't seem to be burning any. I figured cars back then probably leaked about that bad even when new. I'd love to see follow up vids for this old girl.

This is impressive when you consider that old truck wasn't left where it was because it was running well. It already conked out on someone which is why it was junked. He had to overcome not just 81 years of time, but the original mechanical issue(s).

also the old leaded fuel helped keep everything from rusting out! I wish they still sold it and would leave off all that emissions crap on the new ones, it's NOT NEEDED to run the engine.. nor are ANY electronics. In fact, I am not sure why you should have to rely on an electric starter, either. Put a crank on 'em. Never a need to jumpstart or push start if you have a dead battery, that way. Oh, and those automatic transmissions all suck.

@loboheeler

2 жыл бұрын

Not a good idea to add any modern oil, as the additives will try and clean off the old sludge. You can only do this if the engine is cleaned by dis-assembly. You can still buy non-detergent oil at most auto parts stores. Detergent oils need full flow oil filters, which did not become usual until the 1950s.

this will never not amaze me. these videos always are cool to see just because these old rust buckets somehow still run.

Good job, glad to see the truck still runs, you have good ingenuity, hope you breath new life into this old truck, Thanks for the inspiration

This was a blast to watch with my girl. We were both laughing the whole time and blown away by that thing running.
