Love these old F-Ms! When muffled well, they ran almost as quietly as the big steamers did. Unmuffled like this, -always- have that very distinctive bark to the exhaust. Can't mistake 'em for anything else.

i remeber there used to be one of these hooked to a baker fan at the harford fair, it used to be great to stand next to on hot days

@Oviner123 It is. They use the holes for turning the engine over to clear and prime it. They use an air-powered motor to do the actual work of starting it..

@Nighthawke70 Thanks! That engine would be a brute to start by hand.

@Oviner123 They are for turning the engine by hand via a length of pipe.

Its running about 200 RPM its rated for 257.. Takes a bit to get that 11,000 lb flywheel moving.. Not sure what the Torque Rating would be but it would be a lot.. To shut it down if it runs away you would have to take the plate over the intake and flip it over to cut the air..we leave it unbolted but have never had it give us a hint that it wants to run away..

The engine was built in 1924.. The noise at the beginning of the Video is the Airstart.. The Compressor makes little or no noise.. The Flywheel is 11,000 lbs so I am sure its got pleny of torque..
