Starting an old Ideal engine

[Gaslydeath]

gotta love old diesel engines with the old fashioned designs.. can you mount it onto a frame with wheels on it so that it becomes a vehicle? because i'd love to see one of those driving around, that or an old steam version lol.. plus i'm sure that with gears it would be able to go fairly fast..

@Humorgous Rotary DISC valve, then... ;)

[KapteinOpel]

@Humorgous But a rotary valve only runs in one direction ;)

So you had it going the wrong direction that time did you??;-) lovely sound.

[ClackClackKLR]

@MrJohann64 : A 2-stroke engine can typically run in either direction, neither being 'wrong'

[KapteinOpel]

@ClackClackKLR That depends.. A Lanz Bulldog for instance, can run both ways but the lube pump works only one of them.

How is a diesel two stroke?

[KamloopPirate]

@Trikster1of4 Like any other 2 stroke. Tons of them out there, look it up.

It's running the right way at first, if you have a horizontal cylinder engine you want the top of the flywheel going away from the cylinder. As for the flywheels, who cares?

[TheLaurencekid]

its running the wrong way and the flywheels are on the wrong way round
