This era of the automobile is the most beautiful. You can see other inventions from steam engines, kersosine lamps and leaf spring suspension that all brought together gave us the first cars. These cars had such charm.
From my childhood I am associated with this type of ďfferent machines and even at this old age feel the passion, and never miss chances to peep in to the old beauties as we at our workshop in shilliong had and drove quite a few of them, seeing them feel my dream come true.
Fire outside the burner never needs to be part of starting a Stanley. It is always due to operator error. This operator made numerous errors, including: 1. Pointing his torch so that the flame played on the wooden parts of the car. 2. Looking away from his torch flame for extended periods while it was burning. 3. Beginning the kerosene feed by supplying a continuous flow, rather than quickly turning it off and confirming the kerosene was burning correctly. 4. Failing to understand the behavior of the stream from the jets. The camera operator was much more knowledgeable than the vehicle operator in this case. The final narrow stream of liquid was full evidence that the burner had reached a condition of containing significant unburned fuel. 5. Once there was a question about the state of unburned fuel in the burner, failing to insert the torch at the top of the boiler, to encourage any unburned fuel to burn off in this direction. 6. Driving off while open flames were still active in front of the car. Fires in incorrect places, especially when the vaporizer is cool, are the biggest risk in operating a Stanley. They can damage the car and injure people. Please learn a careful, conservative approach to fuel management when firing up, and don't do it like this operator.
Exactly. Assuming correct fuel, it seems to me that the initial mistake was that the branch just wasn't hot enough to assure immediate vaporization of the large amt. of fuel being supplied. I don't know whether the pilot was burning correctly. I suspect not. All very odd.
@Drakilicious After initial firing up, the pilot can be left burning and car ready to go usually very quickly. The incomplete firing up shown here was really badly done for the reasons listed above. Stanleys never really improved their somewhat unbalanced engines as the years went by and they should have been applying condensers earlier. But one of the major factors inhibiting sales was that they were very expensive.
There's nothing like driving a mostly wooden car that must be on fire in order to drive it. However, it shouldn't have been driven away with visible fire on the front of the car. That's a good way to burn the rest of the car. Next time, there needs to be better care in the starting procedure.
Amazing ingenuity with the available resources and technologies. I doubt many of the clowns commenting negatively here would come nearly as close if challenged to accomplish the same.
Babe: what took you so long? Me: ill be there in a minute, i'm almost done starting my car! Just imagine starting that engine when you're late for work😫
Actually, despite their cost, they were popular for that reason: The pilot was kept burning all the time, then the burner would light immediately and operating pressure could be had "quickly".
the guy is just spouting wikipedia.. all stanleys operate at 600 psi.. most new broilers in the usa are rated to 2000 psi so.. you can tell he doesnt know much. he has to reheat the pilot several times..
Quite Right StanleyRegister! The entertaining part of it was the Chap with the Fire extinguisher didn't get the owner of the Stanley out of the way as he got a fireball in his face!! To much panic not enough patience.... And knowing the engine!
True for some, the doble cars were electric start amd started at the push of a button in just 90 seconds, plus they were faster and handled better than gas cars but gas was cheaper so steam was really only for the rich
it was normal enough back then, normal till the sixties actually, with steam lorries still crusing the streets by the early 60’s, flame blowing out the front, and smoke out the top.
'Maybe it will start quicker if I flambé your face.' Good job these jokers weren't around back in the day when they were trying to sell this monstrosity to the public.
Steam engine always facinataing to me .....steam car wow 👍🏼 darling we gonna see some relatives ......ok love remind me a hour n half before as I will build up some steam 🚂 in car
Often owners kept the pilot burning when the car was garaged in cold weather but still in daily use. Obviously there were inherent dangers in that, too. A number of people were killed while trying to crank-start ICE cars. Even today, you can watch enthusiasts on line cranking old cars using very dangerous techniques. Ignorance and stupidity are non-generational I guess. The mass production of ICE cars resulted in prices that were small fractions of the cheapest steam cars.
At least a steam car would start in -10 degrees. Lots of luck hand starting a gas engine with the oil cold and thick. Remember this was well before multi grade oils.

Yeah unlike the pieces of crap we have in the modern day. Old cars up until the 1970's were the best hence the name classic car.

Young people with dificulties to see a treasure of the mecanical evolution...Beautiful machine !!! 🏁🏁👏👏👏🏁🏁....
Un démarrage très très laborieux, cela valait la peine de la faire fonctionné à nouveau, bravo quand même! Merci pour partage passionnant...
Where can I buy one? A great commuter vehicle
Having a car in the 1900s was a pain in the ass. Plus back then they never had compressed air and heating torch to speed up the process
Some used blow torches. Much harder on a really cold day. Several things wrong with this demo.
My god is this a Laurel&Hardy movie. I couldn’t stop laughing starting at 7min 20 s 🤣🤣🤣
It's amazing anybody got anywhere in this thing.
There were many versions of the Stanley Steamer fabricated. There was one version on tracks used to get up to the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO.
I don't remember that but I certainly do remember the Stanley Mountain Wagons for that purpose.
Nope large 12 seat Stanley cars

Makes me wonder why the electric starter wasn't invented earlier.

Wow you are a Stanley car expert I do wish cars were steam again.
A mobile rice cooker. Very creative!
Great Stanley! I subscribed your interesting channel! Greetings, Fabrizio
Thanks for watching! #harvestchaser
@@libasan Thanks to you my friend for sharing!
Those youngsters and their infernal contraptions !
When the world ends, this will be top tech
I wonder if these came with a grill as a factory option?

why your so tired today and late...

Car engineering was a long road
I'd rather daily a stanley than a 70s jag 😂
This is way better than a Cleveland steamer.
😂😂😂
Very beautiful amazing old cars wow amazing looks
Only legend can start this car
Does this Stanley steamer make your carpet cleaner tho?¿
Babe: what took you so long?
Me: ill be there in a minute, i'm almost done starting my car!
Just imagine starting that engine when you're late for work😫

Lol, just add an computer controlled electric plug in heating element, keep the water boiling and under pressure before you drive.
Brings a whole new meaning to the phrase “ warming the old girl up .”

amazing car,i like it
Glad you like it!
you are welcome brothers,
It's torque is axle twisting or say tyre twisting
Close the top lid.
Wow amazing ...is the best clasic...salam dari indonesia..
Привет .у тебя есть чертежи данного паромобиля .?
буду очень рад если поделишься.
заранее спосибо .
🙏 obrigado pelo motor a combustão.
Nunca mais vou reclamar de trocar o óleo.
Honey, let's go for a drive.
Just a moment dear, I need to set fire to the car first!
Q maravillas de autos como quisiera uno de estos puras joyas
Traffic would be soooo much lighter if this was ‘going for a drive.’
I'll bet that those all timers are having a blast
it will be more efficient using a battery and electric motor to drive the car while using the steam to spin generators to charge the battery
É um carro elegante, mas cara... só quem ama mesmo.
I think I found the fuller’s long lost cousin
Nice
กว่าจะเดินได้วุ่นวายน่าดููปรับนั้นปรับนี้ วุ่นวายดีจัง..สงสัยไปไหนทีต้องเผื่อเวลาก่อนขับน่าดู

Эта машина быстро едет, шустрая. В деле его можете посмотреть в других роликах. Steam Car.
Although there might be done some several mistakes getting this car started, I might say: the simple Model T shall be hitting the road much quicker...
And at a fraction of the cost. But no broken arms.

Super simple to daily use!

I think you flooded the carburetor
driving a steam car...so i can pull the whistle ...only reason great video thank you sir
Didn't really catch on the old steam car! Bit dicey the starting procedure.
A 111 year old wooden car, raw gasoline, and scalding hot steam … what could possibly go wrong?
Sir what price u want to sale this cars

It's like they were trying to kill themselves. "Yeah let's drive this when you can see flames out the front which isn't normal!"
it was normal enough back then, normal till the sixties actually, with steam lorries still crusing the streets by the early 60’s, flame blowing out the front, and smoke out the top.
@@carlwheezerofsouls3273 well for a car like this you don't need much of a fire. Still a fire hazard with flames blowing out the front.
Bendito padre selestial y los que guardaron ese tesoro chile hello hola
Its like a ford car but please let me know if its from ford company
the car starts up well, but for a long time ...)))
Is a car fantastic....wow
🙄........👍carro a vapor....con caldera de agua .....!
He said it was to wet and he'll have to let it dry out before re lighting the pilot light. Lit the pilot light anyway lol.
O.K. had No idea wtf Laurel and Hardy were doing here. Not very well made. But thanks for trying.
Mesmo em 1910 seria melhor uma carroça
to have a start this car is very very tedious work
Especially if you don’t incorrectly. See the list of errors in another post on here.
Lástima de pintura está bueno para una urgencia😢
Muito legal esse Stanley
I guess people always got late to work back in the day.
So this wouldn’t be the first car of choice as a get away car for bank robbers
Красивая!
Ещё бы! Мультиварка на колёсах не может не быть красивой 😃

I'd take my chances of having my arm broken by a backfire. I can't imagine doing this in -10 degree weather.

Making something wrong during the starting!!! What for the fire!!!??
Завёл и жизнь прошла, пора на покой.
Primeiro põe fogo para esquentar depois apaga kkkkk
Nunca arranco la roña ......solo para vitrina
That's my getaway car
