  • The owner of this forklift couldn't get it running after it sat for a few years so he bought a new unit. He offered it to a scrapper friend of mine who said if I can get it running and sell it, he'd give me the 6v53 engine from The Chevy C70.

    I'm sure you have heard of a 8-71 or 6-71 blower. Those originally came off Detroit diesel 8v71's and so on. The hot rodders of the past modified them to fit on V8 gas engines. Also the architecture of the two stroke Detroit diesels is that they can't draw in an air charge without some sort of forced induction. That's why Detroit labeled their engines that only had blowers as natural aspirated and an engine with a turbo and blower as forced induction. Detroit diesel engines also share the same architecture as EMD locomotive engines that are also two stroke, EMD was once part of GM.

    I love the sound of Detroit Diesel Engines! I look forward to the day you find something to install that engine into. The John Deere tractors are a beast but that was a little "okay a lot" too much for it! Always nice to see you and Jen and Gus too. Thank you Chris!

    @duncanmacrae6384 Před 2 lety +8

    6V53 sounds good. If you can hepl it, try not to the emergency shut down, especially at rpm. It can suck the seals out of the supercharger. Then she is an oil user and possibly wants to run on her own oil. Big difference between a stuck rack and running away on oil! Loved the video.

    The front view of the DD running is so cool looking. I'd definitely swap that in something with the top sticking out of the engine bay like an Australian blower at a burnout contest. My 69 F-250 with a greasy looking beast like that would be my dream truck.

    @calarndt Před měsícem +1

    @NoNonsenseKnowHow I know this is real old Chris, but I just have to let you know, you can't use starting fluid on a propane engine. Propane when present with starting fluid will not fire since the mixture is so rich that even with good spark it won't ignite. So on a propane motor you have to nail down all the details first like you saw here. Fix the leaks, clean the plugs, ensure the solenoid is opening ( yeah removing it works too! ). Wala the motor jumps to life! Low compression on a propane motor is almost a non-issue.

    Seriously? What could I possibly suggest that has been more random and cool than what you have "will-it-start(ed)" lately? After this forklift, all I could think of is that the other dudes who wrenched on this saw you get it started and just had to eat crow. I think a cool contest would be to have your subscribers call out a ride that you could marry to that monster of a diesel. I can't think of one right now, but it would have to be something worthy of all that torque. Thoroughly enjoyed this video!
