Those auto-gearboxes are always slow to change gear. They need to be triggered by getting off the accelerator after kickdown. Manuals are much better anyway...
Yeah the engine was down a cylinder. The gear box could have been ok, if the engine can't deliver the power it won't shift unless you let off the throttle.
yep, the engine smoked really bad and had no power. So I understand that why they did these tests with it. But in no way was that first test valid. If that engine would have been in good condition it would have performed lot better.
I have tractors from the 1960s on the farm my family bought new back then. These tractors all have been started multiple times a week every Canadian border winter in the well below zero Fahrenheit early morning hours. We (grandfather, father, and myself) have been doing this, the tractors whole lives. We obviously don’t run them on it, just starting use. But doing this likely 150 times a year, for over 50 years, hasn’t stopped them from running, or seem to have damaged them. Most have never had the engine even opened up, besides removing the valve covers or something small like that. Each start easily in the summer months still, and are used regularly still also. A new tractor? Yes we got many, and no we don’t use starting fluid on these, they have warranties still. And trust me, they need it, as they break down way to much. Garbage electronics and computers mounted all over them, and hold up like the cow shit they are supposed to help clean up in a farm environment. I will take my old Massey Ferguson 135 or 165s reliability any day over the new stuff. The only advantage the new stuff has is modern attachments for special uses, but the old ones can still do everything important.
I saw a guy from Bosnia, that has an natural/raw OIL spring ,shooting oil from the ground.... guy just scoopes it from the ground and pits it in the tractor.... it works just fine.... Edit; I think VICE showed it in one of their documentaries about 10 years ago...
Erm, you don't seem to be letting us know what you run those tractors on. Personally, I recommend boiled up seal flipper to get things started on those cold Canadian mornings.
My dad always used a 70/30 diesel/gas mixture if he needed to clean out the exhaust of our '87 Nissan Laurel 2.8D for the annual emissions check. You wouldn't want to drive behind the car during that 'cleaning' but it always drove well on it and also smokeless once the existing carbon deposits were burned away.

I want to see it run on a mix of everything - equal parts diesel, gas, motor oil, brake fluid, ether, nitromethane, cooking oil, WD-40, hair spray, bacon grease, ATF, & paint thinner
Definitely don't spray paint your inner fender well while its running if you have a cold air intake on your diesel. Yep it sat there and idled at about 1500 for 10 seconds.
Either fuel pump or the injectors. The injector mechanism is designed to use fuel that lubricates the part and if the injector starts to wear as a result of missing lubrication, the high pressure will damage the metal parts pretty fast. And diesel engines run poorly even with normal wear in the injectors when injectors are old enough.
The the injection-pump on this model is lubricated by the engine-oil, not by the fuel. it´s an old pre-chamber turbo-diesel (not a cdi) with a mechanic in-line injection-pump, the best you ever could get.
@@lenmar6382 Wow! I didn't expect the engine to be so old that it has pre-chambers. That explains a lot about why the engine kept running that long. I guess "the best" as in "runs forever" instead of "highest performance" or "best economy".
"on sunflower seed oil, it runs but uts not happy, about the same on brake fluid. so the winner so far would be motor oil." Best thing I've heard on CZcams in a while.... given the context
They run even better on sunflower oil, you just need to preheat the oil and use bigger feedlines, also it is best to add a bit of pre ignition to get better power
@@antoniosestar3671 the oil needs longer to ignite so you have to advance your injection timing to compensate that i advanced mine about 6° and had no smoke and full power
From Wikipedia: "Caution is required when using starting fluid with diesel engines that have preheat systems in the intake or glow-plugs installed, as the starting fluid may pre-ignite, leading to engine damage." Not an issue in this video since the engine was already warm, but could get quite spectacular during a cold start.
I used to mix sun flower oil (instead of 2 stroke oil) in my 50cc puch maxi with shaved cylinder head, having it reduced by approx 1 mm and higher compression, it did well over 10.000 rpm, it didn't get off the line without help of my feet, but once going it was almost like a F1 moped, it sounded amazing and smell like a restaurant. pretty much stock, but almost 80 km/h. Just using a book from the library on 2 strokes and modifying the cy, head and piston with files, grinding paste using glass plate, widening the intlet/exhaust port, manifold. It behaved like a diesel, you could pull the lead from the spark plug and kept on running, the spark plug was red hot.
I did that with a Vespa 150S once, when they were worth $50. Mine lasted about ten minutes before shredding the clutch corks. I replaced the buttons with wine bottle cork slithers and upped the spring tension with inner valve springs. I then added some nitrous using a pocket 'butox' welding kit with a custom made injector plate under the Dellorto carb and used the propane component of the welder to richen the mixture, tuning it with huge revs with a closed throttle and dribbling oil in to keep it from seizing, I triggered the nitrous with a hydraulic solenoid valve. It went like stink until I hit third gear on the maiden nitrous run then it split the entire engine casing in half between the gearbox and crankcase then threw the conrod out the other side. It punched three holes including the big one that separated the gearbox. What a blast.
I wonder if you could run it on 100LL. It's 100 octane gasoline with TEL. It's used on general aviation aircraft and the lead is specifically there to prevent petrol knock, but will also provide lubrication which petrol does not.
The gasoline causes the diesel engine to run hotter than normal because it lacks the lubricants that diesel and oil have. Part of the cooling factor of a diesel engine is the diesel itself. That combined with the cylinders being washed down with gasoline makes for very bad things.
Overheating wasn't caused by the types of fuel, but rather, a stuck thermostat. Even if the coolant levels are up, if the thermostat doesn't allow coolant to circulate when hot, the engine heats up rapidly. That would also explain the fans not coming on when hot. The hot water isn't circulating through the radiator. The fan sensor is in the bottom tank of the radiator, and if no hot water makes it down there, the fans won't come on. This engine would have survived just fine, if water had been flowing through the radiator once it warmed up. The only concern with alternate fuels, is lubrication of the high pressure fuel pump. Surprisingly, the pump isn't what went wrong!
The heat from gasoline damaged the engine. But if you try a mix of 10% gasoline with 90% diesel, you will get power boost at the expense of a bit of more heat. You'll be mixing cetane with octane, and if the gas pipes are not adequately prepared the seals might decompose (the fuel system is prepared for diesel and not gasoline).
@@joe125ful LPG is fine as long as you don't use it with diesel injectors. Diesel pump and injectors are designed to be used with fuel that lubricates the parts. Using non-lubricating fuel is pretty similar to replacing the engine oil with gasoline.
@pedrorocha6203 Gasoline does not have more “power” or “heat” than diesel. Diesel actually has more power. The overheating would be from something else, like more friction or incorrect burn of the fuel.
Well, it landed up in Russia as a scrapped vehicle, so yes likely it was well done already. Now the garage has a project on rebuilding something not made by Lada or Trabant.
Gr8 video, that quick start liquid can be removed from the can using a piercing pliers- can tap pliers, it hugs the aerosol can, when locking the pliers around the aerosol can, the piercing device punches a partial hole in the metal, and the rubber seals against the outside of the aerosol can, this can tap pliers has a sae 1/4" port to attach to an airconditioning charging manifold, that way you can have a controlled release of the aerosol's contents ...and that quick start fluid, when injected into a car's airconditioning system, mixing with the refrigerant gas, the a/c starts working ice cold after some time using it, possibly cleaning out the condensor from the inside
Every 3000km add 1 liter of ATF to the fuel tank...it will clean and lubricate the diesel pump and injectors . Did that to my 1992 VW 1600 TD never a pump or injector issue for @ 900,000km. The engine ran perfectly when I junked the car due to complete frame rot and the drivers seat falling through the floor.
I have an old CJ-7 that I switch between diesel and petrol, regularly. I just have to adjust the timing when I switch fuels, which is as easy as a turn of the wrist on a CJ-7.
Brake fluid is Hydroscopic (absorbs water), so it can absorb H20 in the tanks (same with Ethanol). It won't make your engine run better but may allow it to pass H2O in the system and prevent the engine from stalling due to water in the system.
Used engine oil somehow works in diesel engines, I use it from time to time with my diesel car. Just filter it and pour into the tank, engine runs very smooth. I usually mix it with 2-stroke oil and diesel and never had any issues
Gasoline burns much faster than Diesel fuel, the problem was injection timing, with a gas engine you need timing to be at least 10-2 degrees before top dead center of piston travel, and a Diesel engine injects almost at top dead center, so the gasoline had already burned up by the time 20 degrees after top dead center was reached, and the air was not regulated by a throttle, so it could burn very hot.
A company where I live switched over to used cooking oil from commercial deep friers. You knew when you were following one of their trucks because it smelled like popcorn.
This engine at the end of the video looks exactly like the GAZ-53A engine - V8, 4.2 liter gasoline with 120 hp. and a 4-speed manual gearbox. It will be even better if it is from the ZIL 130 - 6.0 liters with 150 horses and a 5-speed manual gearbox. Either way, it will be a lot of fun to put this type of Soviet engine in a Mercedes-Benz G Class!
Thats not ethanol my friend, that right there, is the Cosby sauce. Ether my friend, scent of the fairies, one good whiff of that stuff, and your mind will be asking your body how much it had to drink. Stone sober with little to no control over your body, like a bad trip on Qualudes.
It will lean out due to high boost diesals run plus the seals in dorsal pump will fail soon I suppose it could be tuned with lower boost and better seals in pump
I hope you guys replace the intake valves with check valves. 19th century engines would do that, with how high compression can be today, it might not be so bad.
The gasoline fuel needs a specific amout of air to fuel ratio in order to either burn cool and make sufficent power. Diesel engines control the amount of fuel injected, and they usually have a completely unrestricted intake with loads of air. This means you can only control the AF ratio with the throttle pedal. You would either be running it too lean and overheating the engine, or running it too rich and bogging down. Usually the fuel map in a gasoline car controls the fuel injected, but in this case it was the throttle and only the throttle, while the amount of air was controlled by the rpm only.
To run a diesel on kerosene or petrol you add 1/200 of 2 stroke oil, I did run a Mazda 626 Diesel for 2 years on kerosene using that mix. If you do not add oil it will ruin the diesel fuel pump and that is very expensive to fix as the fuel pump on a diesel is very special and run extremely high pressures injecting fuel at precisely times moments. y . Reply
That's how diesels run away when they start pulling oil from somewhere like the turbo bearing. That's why you smother the intake to cut off the air supply when that happens.
old motor oil filtered and mixed with little gasoline is called Black Diesel.... afaik, most diesel cars,trucks etc will run on it just fine....sometimes you need better fuel filter....
One interesting test would be to run it on engine oil and try how much gasoline you can mix into the engine oil and still run the engine? I would guess that 50% : 50% might still run. I would also assume that 0W-XX oil would flow better through the fuel filter.
Running gasoline in a diesel engine is a bit hard on it, even for engines designed to run on both fuels. Those engines recommended that you always treat the gasoline with motor oil when using it. The good news is it doesn't have to be fresh motor oil, it can be filtered, but used motor oil. Mechanically injected diesels are also better for this type of experiment. Another fuel you should try is to use butane and or Propane vapor in the engine after warm up. Obviously, you want to use vapor so if you use butane, this will be a summer experiment. You will not have to mix in motor oil if vapor is used as it will not wash the cylinder walls. In winter, compressed natural gas would be a better option as it is still a gas even at colder temps.
get an old tech diesel and put a large motorbike carb/injector on the intake and run as normal, the diesel igniting is the spark plug, two torque curves. im putting LPG and turbo on my old diesel to clean the smog up a bit, its an Australian truck thing....
Ether (starting fluid) burns very fast, that’s why it’s helpful for recalcitrant engines. Small amounts do no harm….but if you need it you have other issues to look into.
Yes diesels run very well on motor oil. The cheap way to do it is to use used motor oil. You run a garage so you would have plenty. You just need to filter it. I used to do this with my 60 series Land cruiser.
I ran my old transit with a banana engine on the cheapest veg oil for a summer and it loved it and smelt great. Veg oil got more expensive than diesel tho. Goes waxy at low temps so no good in winter tho.
I have ran waste cooking oil in the past in idi engine, poured straight from the drum with only a sandbag over the drum as a filter, 10 litres of diesel & 50 litres of wvo.. No starting issues, ran perfect for years.. Would like to see how far a common rail can be pushed,engines like or similar Bmw M47, volvo d5244t, toyota 1cd-ftv or 1nd-tv e.t.c

I got a monumental headache just watching him empty the ethanol cans😂
Thats not ethanol my friend, that right there, is the Cosby sauce. Ether my friend, scent of the fairies, one good whiff of that stuff, and your mind will be asking your body how much it had to drink. Stone sober with little to no control over your body, like a bad trip on Qualudes.

It will lean out due to high boost diesals run plus the seals in dorsal pump will fail soon I suppose it could be tuned with lower boost and better seals in pump
I hope you guys replace the intake valves with check valves. 19th century engines would do that, with how high compression can be today, it might not be so bad.
The inside of that engine is super clean now.
18:08 HAHAHAHA safety squints nice!
Hmm if u mix the motor oil and gasolin will the desel engine run like normal mix like 2 for gasolin and 8 for motor oil. Just want to know only
The gasoline fuel needs a specific amout of air to fuel ratio in order to either burn cool and make sufficent power.
Diesel engines control the amount of fuel injected, and they usually have a completely unrestricted intake with loads of air. This means you can only control the AF ratio with the throttle pedal. You would either be running it too lean and overheating the engine, or running it too rich and bogging down. Usually the fuel map in a gasoline car controls the fuel injected, but in this case it was the throttle and only the throttle, while the amount of air was controlled by the rpm only.
Look at the length of those intake runners! You see these diesel engines “runaway” from oil leaking into the engine so this was an interesting test!
You could try adding 2 stroke lubrication oil into the petrol and then running the diesel engine on that mix
Is that a zil motor you’re going to put into it?
Same thing happend next day after putting petrol in my diesel jag. Started smoking then cut out and never started again.
I make black diesel in 250 gallon batches. It needs to be thinned with gas for proper spray by injectors
To run a diesel on kerosene or petrol you add 1/200 of 2 stroke oil, I did run a Mazda 626 Diesel for 2 years on kerosene using that mix. If you do not add oil it will ruin the diesel fuel pump and that is very expensive to fix as the fuel pump on a diesel is very special and run extremely high pressures injecting fuel at precisely times moments.

That'll work with kerosene, but absolutely not petrol
That's how diesels run away when they start pulling oil from somewhere like the turbo bearing. That's why you smother the intake to cut off the air supply when that happens.
old motor oil filtered and mixed with little gasoline is called Black Diesel....
afaik, most diesel cars,trucks etc will run on it just fine....sometimes you need better fuel filter....
“Too bad we don’t have fire extinguishers”.
One interesting test would be to run it on engine oil and try how much gasoline you can mix into the engine oil and still run the engine? I would guess that 50% : 50% might still run. I would also assume that 0W-XX oil would flow better through the fuel filter.
Running gasoline in a diesel engine is a bit hard on it, even for engines designed to run on both fuels. Those engines recommended that you always treat the gasoline with motor oil when using it. The good news is it doesn't have to be fresh motor oil, it can be filtered, but used motor oil. Mechanically injected diesels are also better for this type of experiment. Another fuel you should try is to use butane and or Propane vapor in the engine after warm up. Obviously, you want to use vapor so if you use butane, this will be a summer experiment. You will not have to mix in motor oil if vapor is used as it will not wash the cylinder walls. In winter, compressed natural gas would be a better option as it is still a gas even at colder temps.
get an old tech diesel and put a large motorbike carb/injector on the intake and run as normal, the diesel igniting is the spark plug, two torque curves.
im putting LPG and turbo on my old diesel to clean the smog up a bit, its an Australian truck thing....
You know big boss man got him a G wagon.
Non electronic diesels will run on any mineral based oil however synthetic oils do not burn well and will gum it up quickly.
Ether (starting fluid) burns very fast, that’s why it’s helpful for recalcitrant engines. Small amounts do no harm….but if you need it you have other issues to look into.
Retest the gasoline and add two stroke oil
Yes diesels run very well on motor oil. The cheap way to do it is to use used motor oil. You run a garage so you would have plenty. You just need to filter it. I used to do this with my 60 series Land cruiser.
I ran my old transit with a banana engine on the cheapest veg oil for a summer and it loved it and smelt great. Veg oil got more expensive than diesel tho. Goes waxy at low temps so no good in winter tho.
The stopwatch guy had an old 25 year old Nokia brick phone. 🤣🤣
Do a test on filtered cooking oil from restaurants and see how much diesel you need to mix in to start and run normally from cold
I have ran waste cooking oil in the past in idi engine, poured straight from the drum with only a sandbag over the drum as a filter, 10 litres of diesel & 50 litres of wvo.. No starting issues, ran perfect for years.. Would like to see how far a common rail can be pushed,engines like or similar Bmw M47, volvo d5244t, toyota 1cd-ftv or 1nd-tv e.t.c
