  • this is the 3rd video on this antique gile 1910 marine engine that I purchased that was so called RESTORED, yeah sure. anyway, we took it apart on the last video and found big rot holes in the cylinder, and the piston was backwards plus missing a ring, that and the coil was not performing proper. lets see if we can fix some of those and get it to run better.

    I once took a small cylinder to a machine shop and had them weld fill in a cavity in the cylinder. Also used some JB weld to fill a hole in a piston once, and that worked. Fun video.

    Thanks to you I spent the afternoon wrenching on my wife's car. Had to remove the intake to change the ignition coils. It's all back together with no more flashing warning lights. Thanks to you! Seriously Mustie, THANK YOU. You make fixing stuff fun. Your patience and persistence is infectious. Thanks again for letting us look over your shoulder while you do REALmechanicking.

    Did my apprenticeship in a Naval Dockyard in the 1960's. Would have just bored a 10 thousandth of an inch cut down the barrel. Reversed the piston and used a plus 20 thousandth oversize set of three new piston rings and put it back together. Depending on how you set the timing, the engine will run clockwise or anticlockwise. Still it is nice to watch someone breathing life into this old engine. Keep up the good work.

    it might be a lot of work but this little motor would be worth it. Remove the exhaust manifold and have a shop bore out the cylinder slightly. Re-sleeve with a steel liner, re hone to spec. and re-port the new liner (to match the existing ones). This could be done. This engine would be really nice in a small dory like boat. Classic and would be worth every penny.

    Nice to see the coil worked out for you. Thanks for the shout out.
    I repaired a Fairmont rail speeder engine in December and the piston on that one was upside down too. HUGE difference in performance.
    FYI You can run that coil on whatever works, 6,8,12, 24 volts. Old timer told me the coils "liked" 8 volts and I've run several on 12 volts with a resistor connected in series. Indeed, the coils work well, plugs rarely foul and the points on the coil don't seem to pit.

    Thanks for having us in the shop! When I was younger I worked in a shop rebuilding transaxles. When the CV joints were pitted, our welder would spray weld the pits before the joint was re-ground to take larger balls. Not sure if you could get in there to spray weld that, or how you could machine it after. The top ring would probably help it to run better, with timing and all - not sure how likely you are to find a ring...

    Good to see the old girl running. The cylinder sleeve is a press fit into the cast water jacket and you can remove and replace the sleeve if you really wanted to get it up and running again. Just a matter of how many bucks you want to put into the motor. Sleeve and new rings for sure. The question is can you get the carb working right as well. Great job figuring out what you needed to do to get it back running.

    I liked seeing this one again. In the slow-mo choochin' it looked jaunty! When you put the water pump back on you could use two garbage pails, one full, and just swap them as the drain fills up. And, to keep your starter socket from egging out, cut a sideways T and fold the two sides inward to support either side of the key. Looking forward to more on this later in the year.

Put the round end of the ball peen hammer directly over the bolt hole the tap it with another hammer to make a clean cut. If you are concerned about steel to steel hammers, you could use a brass or lead hammer to strike it. PS. I hope there is not leak between the water jacket and the cylinder.

Until there is no good spare cylinder available maybe a sleeve and a smaller piston would do the trick? Nevertheless this would be a lot of work and I doubt that it is worth the effort!? Although I simply love everything that's green.
    Thank heavens that there are cool/generous guys like the one that restored the spark box for you.
    I'm looking forward to see that great old iron in the summer again (with cooling system hooked up as you mentioned).
    Hope and pray that some day there will be a way out of the dead end zone for the fantastic Jawa and double cab also.
    Thanks a lot for making teaching recording editing uploading and sharing.
    Best regards luck health and wisdom.

The name of the company is San Jose Babbitt. We used to have them manufacturer Babbitt bearings for us for industrial ovens.

    The critical INTAKE/EXH 'timings' of a 2Stroke engine relies on when the piston uncovers the ports. Without a top ring on the piston, these timings are incorrect and may result in poor running. (The lower ring is determining when the ports are uncovered.)

      Yes and no... but it's not that critical, especially in a 2 stroke of this size. It would be a minimal change at most(a couple of degrees or so at the crank). I do agree, it could have an impact on running, especially on smaller 2 strokes(under 50cc)

      Yep Top ring is your main compression ring. Very surprised that it even tried to run. My worry is with that heavy pitting once you install the top ring will it catch and break the ring again? Might be better off sending it down the road As Is if you can find another Jug for it or have it bored and sleeved.

  • @KentuckyFriedFixes
    @KentuckyFriedFixes 4 года назад

    Thanks for these videos on the Gile engine. If you cannot locate a new compression ring you can match up a thin compression ring with your bore size (a ring about 1/16" or 1/8" thickness and the diameter of your current bore) , narrow the old current ring thickness by that same amount and run the new compression ring and old one in the same groove. Run the new ring on top of the old one as the old ring is basically just a spacer now. This should build up enough compression to run. Of course on 2 strokes, 2 rings would be better so you could narrow the old ring to use as a spacer and run a ring on top of it and below it giving you 2 new rings.I would not run any rings in the top groove because of the bore issue, epoxy is great stuff but it has its limits. I would stay away from the glaze breaker hones, they always left a tapered bore for me. A constant pressure hone like a Sunnen leaves a perfectly straight round bore every time. Best of luck!
