Will, thanks for the tip on polishing the flywheels, I'll start doing it tomorrow, and will cross cut it first, which will take less time. Thanks again RoadKen53

I think they might still manufacture these engines in Mexico.

[Bidone1967]

The engine looks very nice!

[fonephat]

Is there an impulse coupling on the magnito?.

[ozzyvanhalenrox]

What are these engines for? Are they gas engines?

[19wael96]

Will, I had to go back to your original video. I finally got my engine running. I hope when I finish it, it will look as good as yours.

[jakeyloser]

it is for running equipment see the flat belt pulley most intended for sawing wood running a drill press or thresing equipment

[Ebaum744]

or powering a water pump

What the heck does this thing do?

I'm more impressed that my cell phone has more power than my computer from 10 years ago.

[MikeWishesForBagels]

K lame dude.

How did you find this in the first place?

It runs stuff like corn grinders.

[Reverseflush]

Oh corn grinders, K lame.. maybe everyone should have a corn grinder do-hickey and there'd be no war. MikeWishesForPoo

[MikeWishesForBagels]

Uh..

Not gonna reply to that but they used them from the early 1900's to the late 50s/60s.

[Reverseflush]

I'm starting to dislike you Mike.

You are probably some fat dude behind a computer. Haha you're fat. You can't compose yourself. You can't control your eating habits.

Buy a treadmill instead of a computer.

[loveynight21]

THANKS FOR THAT WIBATTY. BIG HELP

[douro20]

Some of the larger Fairbanks-Morse "Z" engines have radiators.

[MrQXR]

Sounds really good

[Summerride]

What is the cooling system of those engine ?

[wjbatty]

This engine is water cooled, there is an opening on the top of the engine in front of the flywheels(waterhopper), where water goes and surrounds the cylinder. If you look at the water hopper opening, you can see that steam is rising from the water, it is quite common for the water in these engines to boil, and actually the engines are usually running most efficently while the water is at a boil.
