  • This 4-cylinder and it's little 3-cylinder brother arrived at Zagray Farm around 2004, and finally we have been able to make a foundation for the engine and put up a building for it and other large stationary engines. It's a monumental day!
    Also, a big thanks to Lauren for filming the majority of this video while i was running around helping move the engine!

    That old crane's still got its stuff. As an engineer, I can really appreciate the planning that went into this. Thanks.

    That crane looked like was on its edge of capacity . look at the end of the tracks glad you guys got it picked with out a mishap .

      Not sure what the capacity is. Some counterweight would have fixed the machine tiptoeing.

    Whats the weight of that engine?
    Maybe some day when a solar storm hits mother earth we will be thankful someone saved all those dark age equipment... :)

    What are the plans for those engines? I love what you guys do up there, and try to go to the shows when I can.

    • @themadmailler
      @themadmailler  7 лет назад

      They will be run for demo purposes (generator won't be making any power, just will be along for the ride) along with other stationary engines soon to be installed in the building!

    mechanical clutches meet 20 tons, slightly dangerous on the bouncing lift. Nice work saving and moving it tho. Like those old FM brutes keep em preserved.

    how much oil does it take to fill the engine crank case ? and thanks-4-great-upload (nice job) !

    • @themadmailler
      @themadmailler  7 лет назад

      It's a dry sump engine, so i believe it only takes about 5 gallons.

    • @themadmailler
      @themadmailler  4 года назад

      just to correct myself, it takes about 15 gallons in a day tank. an oil pump sucks oil out, lubes the engine, and oil drains back out of the sumps to another pump which pumps the oil through a filter and into the day tank again.

      @@themadmailler Since it crankcase scavenged, does some of the oil fling off the bearings and forced up the ports to burn off.

    The NW crane sounds like it has a Murphy Diesel....
