walmart sells gallons rotella oil around $20 , This will make those diesel carts last long time ~ get you some

Watching this in New Zealand. I think you should try running it on used chip oil etc. Imagine this as a post apocolyptic, mad max vehicle, could you make it run on what's available? I dunno. But this channel is awesome!

Yeah I’ve been thinking of trying some different fuel sources just for fun. I have seen someone running on vegetable oil but they had to heat it to keep it thin enough to flow well. I appreciate it!

I just got a red one. But it looks like the Orange one. I think it had the same weird stickers and has wing nuts on the intake and exhaust. But has a fuel filter that was backwards and a hose from the crank breather to the intake. And has a center bolt valve cover and came in a wooden crate.

I’m thinking that they may have updated the design since I bought the red one years ago and the differences I saw were because of the update and not because the red and orange are actually different.

the soot in the air filter is from you useing the decomp switch to turn it off

That’s completely obvious now that you point it out. I don’t know how I hadn’t connected that before.

Would one of these be strong enough to run a 2500 colemann generator head? probably would have to gear it up
@jwsbackyard6413Ай бұрын
Not sure about that specific generator but it’s rated at around 3hp and 6lbs of torque.
@Derski92Ай бұрын
You would have to look into it but from memory to run a generator you need to have the engine to be able to get to a certain rpm to be able to create the correct frequency something like that but if you do a quick search you'll find your answer

3hp (2.2kw) diesel would probably power a head that would make less than 1.5kw, going by the usual loss from engine output to electricity output

is the mount above the throttle cracked already?
@jwsbackyard6413Ай бұрын
No it’s just a shadow from a casting ridge

9:51 how do you turn it off without pushing the decompression switch?
@jwsbackyard641318 күн бұрын
If you push the throttle all the way up towards the turtle it will cut the engine off. That is the way you are supposed to turn it off.

What did you use to file the crankshaft down?
@jwsbackyard641323 күн бұрын
I used sand paper and a file on the first engine but I used a grinder and sandpaper for the second and it went a lot faster. Just have to take a little at a time and measure often.

have you messed with the fueling systems at all?
@jwsbackyard64132 ай бұрын
I have taken the injector apart and had the pump out before but haven’t modified anything. Been trying to figure out how to increase fueling for some nitrous or forced induction.
@parkerhorton34712 ай бұрын
I messed around with mine and I got a higher fuel pressure by removing 2 of the 3 spacer gaskets between the pump and the front cover, it wasn't a huge increase but it was definitely present.

Interesting, I’m going to have to try that.

The engine isn't weak. It's the normal specs for a 196cc diesel.

...which is built based off a generic petrol engine, which was either I think Honda or Briggs (I can't think of the other brand right now)

I want one for my mud motor

Mine have been reliable. They just don’t make a ton of for power. I’ve heard a lot of people talk about using them for that just don’t know how much power you’d normally need.
@RomaniValdez29 күн бұрын
You need a little turbo on there
@jwsbackyard641318 күн бұрын
Working on some options to increase fueling first. If I can get that worked out turbo may be in the future

It would be great for a kid, not to fast, but could run all day without burning up a briggs gas 5hp engine
