  • I would expect that you'd have issues with wetstacking if you run them for extended periods without load.

  • Lack of load is a problem. Hopefully by this summer we will be able to run all engines on some load with the ability to run heavier loads periodically.

    We are actually getting very little buildup in the exhausts of the Tangye but do get glazing problems with some of the multis such as the Belliss & Morcom and the Allen. Videos of those shortly.

  • It seems a shame that there is no load for the engine, I would love to hear it working hard (I bet the guys that lok after it would too )

  • She is belted up to a 70kw alternator. Once we have a control board made the plan is to run a water pump to provide a decent load.

  • WAY too short video!!

  • That's cool!

  • When you have finished playing with it, can I have it back please :-).

  • speed that up about 4x and you have yourself a jungle track... lol

  • dum ts paff ts looool

  • Isn't that the biggest engine Tangye ever made?

  • Running at about 130 in the video, 240 service.

    Normal EGT on a working day is around 280 degrees. There is a positive lube oil feed to the cylinder walls which keeps them happy and remember this is a horizontal with the exhaust valve on the bottom line of the cylinder so we do get a little buildup in the exhaust line below engine level.

  • The thing is, to get the EGTs (Exhaust Gas Temps) above 350~ degrees, and keep them that high, or higher. (if you go above about 1200, things start to melt down)

    How close are you running to the rated rpm in this video?
