  • At 3mins it seems there is something leaking from the engine. Any ideas as to what it might be?

  • Spill from the sprayer, now goes into a return pipe to the tank.

  • @semidiesel ,

    The Oilers are Empty ....!!!

  • @GpunktHartman Cylinder oiler is half full and the crank oiler has about 1/2 an inch, more than enough for the 5 minute run.

  • What's the nasty grinding/crunching sound?

  • LPG blow torch in the background.

  • What ever happened to building machines that last?

  • People got cheap. I run a 66 truck every day for working around the farm and it runs great. My dad bought a 03 truck correspondent model to my 66 and he just bought another new one because he wore the 03 out already.

  • Nice engine. I love it. Also it sounds great. They should make a diesel engine cd.

  • those are the neatest sounding engines ever !! i want one

  • @oldskoolcoinop

     Everything industry builds today cheap dishonest crap!

  • sooooo nice!

  • The 1849 Hornsbey is really a work of art. It was just such an engine that powered the B-29 bombers that won the War Between the States for the North!!! A real piece of history - I have 17 of them - but they ran only on Gen. Grants whiskey - which is no longer available - what a damn shame too!!!

  • @oldskoolcoinop There's not enough money for the greedy these days in dependable machinery.
