Detroit Diesel snowblower, part III

[maplemanz]

The 2 stroke detroits don't like to be lugged.

[aaron12v92]

that 318 sounds tired  lol when shes wound tight it shouldnt bogg down that much with that amount of snow

[cangurosw]

BUEN  TRABAJO

[RockinGuy1994]

For a detroit diesel It don't have much power!

[enginemasterbuilder]

stall that sucker and it could run backwards!!

[INVESKY]

where is the power and 4wd?

[Edward903]

bruzacruza,you would not be saying this if you lived in North America.That is for sure.

[darklight1313]

lets get 20 snow makers and park 'em around his place and leave them running for 48 hours

we'll see if its a dumb idea then ;)

[ashleebabe]

the truck in weak as hell lol

[blackmack1966]

its the drivers faults hes pushing the truck too hard and going to fast if he went slow it would have done better

[studpuppy69]

Slick icy pavement, lots of snow, the same motor that powers the PTO is powering the truck. Call it what you want.

[ashleebabe]

dude my comment is 4 months old and your commenting on it now lol loser comes to mind hahaha

[studpuppy69]

[hitdapipe]

@studpuppy69 no it doesn't it has a different motor that runs the PTO you see the motor sitting on the rear!!!

[skowlitz]

[032590ZP]

[blackmack1966]

its justs alittle underpowered and its having a little tuff time finding traction to so you know

[Skycalgary]

Seems to perform like a typical detroit - Useless.

[jimbodepot]

two detroits interesting

[Metallica1071991]

PUT A POSIE IN THAT THING!!

[movieaddicted]

I'm for sure ganna have to build one like that, but better. That was one awsome toy.

[spencermcgrew]

why doesn't that have posi or something? its kinda pathetic seeing it spin...

[s172mch]

might wanna put some chains on it

sounds great when it gets the load of snow

[miredian]

Not too impressed with that unit. The wheels spin, underpowered, not too well designed.

[jaggass]

i wish america made more diesels. most are V8 petrol engines

[novadak]

Not around my area. Most are 4 or 6cyl petrol engines.

[detroitPOWER]

look in my vas or type [ mad dog vachon ] you will hear a orange western star 8v92 with 2 turbos -nos and propane ..sounds so mean!!

[Alisterwolf66]

We had similar OshKosh units at Eielson AFB. Used a 6V92T for the drive, and a 600hp 8V92TT for the blower. The augers in that blower were huge! Had to be five or six feet in diameter, if not bigger. 'Bout twelve feet wide, and the impeller was equally huge.

It was great fun to watch and hear those big Detroits get loaded down and absolutely howl as they threw snow a hundred or so feet off the runway.

[europachris]

The 8V71 only drives the snowblower section, and the 6V53 drives the chassis like a normal truck.

[ClassicTVFan82]

How can it be that two different diesel engines work together within the same vehicle?

[europachris]

Yup, pretty sure that the chassis drive is a 6V53. Definitely a V motor from a short look, but didn't get close enough to verify if it was a 53 or 71.

[xGODLYxSKiLLeDx666x]

@europachris it's alot better useing that then a shovel lol

[B422TMack]

I Can make out the 318 (8V71) But the 2nd motor sounds like a 6V53 Right ?
