- This was taken at the 2015 Nowthen Threshing show in Minnesota. Impressive power!
The Nowthen Threshing show is held every year in August. www.nowthenthreshing.com/
The show is worth the trip to see this engine alone! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
It is great to see one of these with a load put on it!!
It's good to see the engine doing real work driving other equipment, great display
Ray
whorayful what are the another equipments and which processes r they using
@@atiladorsay3478 The first machine is a 4 cylinder multi stage high pressure helium compressor that they are using to recharge the starting air tanks. The second machine is a synchronous Gardner Denver gas well compressor.
This 2 stroke giant could make way more than 350HP.
lets mount one in a giant banshee and wheelie throught baltimore!
Anyone who enjoys seeing these historic engines run should look into being in Brooks, Oregon around the beginning of August each year, where you can go to Antique Powerland Museum and view live, acres of these engines and hobbyists. Featuring an indoor engine room for permanently placed engines of a size and importance that they need to remain indoors. You will also see giant steam tractors from late 1800s driving around the grounds, races and a 1/4 mile long straight where they are driven by stands. Much else of interest as well, Quite a show, took me 2 days!
You can even get a tour when they're not steaming... just don't forget to pay the caretaker for his time. I enjoyed the whole thing, both the indoor museum and the outdoor stuff too... a full steam-powered sawmill. Evergreen Aviation Museum just down the road too!
Up here in Whatcom county Washington, first week August we have a show also, about 75 hit-n-miss engines, about 8 total huge stationary engines, about 25 oil-pulls 7 steam engines, 3 working scale model steam engines, about 200-250 total old Tractors and trucks, old chain saws working swap meet and pulling tractors and mowers as well as other events throughout the day, perty fun, look up Puget sound antique tractor and machinery show and that is it
Yes, I hope to take a trip out that way “soon”.
Listen to how quiet and smooth the old FM runs!
That crankcase is making aroung 40 to 50 LBS pressure i hop that plexiglass is thick enough! Them giant 2 strokes can make some serious boost!
Amazingly quiet. I was expecting an ear splitting racket. Beautiful old machinery.
No poppet valves, plus the large diameter cylinders that help spread out the pressure wave. Pure genius
This is got an EMD 16-645 looking like a weedwhaker motor!
What an installation! Wow! Great work!
Old school vibration monitoring @ 4:44
Smooth as silk.
Very very interesting the engine sounds pretty good thank you
Very good
Whats so impressive is that this engine is still running PERFECTLY after over a hundred years - how many of our cars will still be doing that?
Non of this throwaway 4 stroke junk will not last not even close!
Wonder what the fuel consumption rate is on something like this?
there is the prehistoric frequency convertor in the corner of the el. cabinet.
amazing, must have ran day after day year after year
Wish this came with subtitles.
Let's see a demo on getting fire out of the stack.
Lol that kid that threw his arms up when the air compressor unloader released. That was funny.
Forgot to say, FM engines powered WWll submarines. Each sub had 4!
Quite a few of them. The other engines used were GM, Winton and HOR.
@@scada4321 The majority were GM Detroit V-16 2-strokes, X4.
The FMs were opposed piston engines. We called them rock crushers.
how much torque?
350HP at 300 RPM equals 6,125 pounds feet of torque at that engine speed.
@@turbo8454 Thats a lot, some were over 450hp.
how much torque
Tons. If we could find out the rpm, then we could figure it out.
Edit: The sign says 300 rpm. That’s 6127 ft/lbs.
A REAL diesel engine has a catwalk, lol
And crankcase pressurized 2 stroke too
One thing tdoo is to Fire Wall it and watch the tac to see how many RPM befour parts statrt to come off😋😋😋😋😁😁😁🙂🙂🎱🎱🧨🧨💥💥😆😆
Interesting, but the audio is terrible.
With some modern teaking and tuning, it could make a lot more power.
Bruce Miller no
Wait till his vtech kicks in...
or you could leave it alone and with proper maintenance it could last almost forever
Nope......that's not what it's meant for. It was meant to do a job well for a hundred years before an overhaul.
@@hoost3056 Exactly, -unlike most of the stuff nowadays. It was built to be serviceable, and last a very long time.
Amazing that my BMW engine makes the same power as that giant engine.. technology is amazing.
But no where near the torque
@@jlo13800 huh? My M235i makes 20,000ft/lbs
Does it fire on every stroke and burn up its oil, you got a high speed poppet valve 2 stroke though, im sure it would work fine with silkolene pro 2 SX synthetic 2 stroke oil, XD-100 would work also
What type of metering oil pump does your BMW motor wave and what is the oil burn rate?
But will your BMW run for 10,000 hours non stop and then only require the rod bearings to be reversed and then only after three more minor maintenance stops get a main bearing change.
It's two-stroke, not two cycle.
rand49er..... same difference.
@@Romans--bo7br It isn't the same difference. The term is short for two strokes per cycle or four strokes per cycle. Two cycles is four strokes per cycle. This per my professor of internal combustion engines in my senior year of mech engineering at the Univ of Mich. My professor was Prof David Cole, son of Ed Cole, co-inventor of the small block Chevy V8 motor.
Motors are electric, a small block Chevy is an engine!
@@rand49er actually, an engine is an engine and a motor is a motor, you should get that straight. Depending on the definition of a stroke, which varies in the English Language you can easily consider a stroke to consist of an entire revolution or just half. This is why it is used Interchangeably and is always up to interpretation. 99% of people will understand 2 stroke to be the same as 2 cycle for this reason. What's actually problematic is your lack of understanding the difference between a motor and an engine in the English language. If you're going to chastise people over the use of stroke or cycle I'd think to would be prudent to understand the difference.
This wee tangent is just silly. Makes zero diff, two-stroke, two-cycle- if yer gonna be anal about it, it's two-stroke-cycle. And a stroke is between TDC & BDC. TTFN.
The old man needs to retire !
Why?
And, you need to shut your spiteful, puerile pie-hole. What a waste of space.
