35HP Oil Engine Start. 90 years old.

Krimo 35hp from 1930's. Made in Sweden by Kristdala Motorfabrik.
I have adjusted the rpm regulator on it, so i wanted to teststart it and see that it worked. And it works perfect.
It is a bit hard to spin those flywheels in this cold (-8 c) when oil and grease are thick.
And i hope that you can understund my English 😅

90 years old and it's just getting 'broke in'. Your english is good, the accent adds to the charm of seeing such an old Swedish engine run.

[@adrianm.2043]

Really interesting to see such an engine working, it brought back fond memories of when I was a very young man. I was friends with an elderly farmer who had a vintage crawler tractor that had a single cylinder diesel engine, it was quite a big machine. Unfortunately the steering brakes were worn out so we couldn't drive it but we used it as a stationary engine to run a belt driven saw bench for cutting logs. That was fifty years ago now, and the tractor was from the 1920s, I cannot remember what make it was for certain but it might have been an international. The friend who owned it passed away circa 1980 so I cannot ask him. The engine could be started with a cartridge, but because cartridges were scarce we usually started it manually , with a lighted fuse in the cartridge holder, it took two men with a starting handle to turn it over and get it up to sufficient speed that it would start when the decompression cam running in a groove like a screw thread on the outside of the flywheel dropped off and the compression came in. Like yours it would start with a whump, then gradually pick up speed. It didn't ever run backwards as far as I remember.

[@jackx4311]

@adrianm.2043 - the reason this engine can run in either direction is because it's a two-stroke. When it's running slowly, you can clearly hear one 'WHUMP!' at each revolution.

[@wuseling]

It'll run in 100 years too, no problem for these old engines. Very sustainable. That's what I love about these old machines.

[@YesterdaysMachinery]

Yes, oil and grease then it runs forever.

[@xxxxixi6073]

to be fair it's not running under load, so I would hope it still runs in 100 years

[@YesterdaysMachinery]

The seal for the hot bulb is made of asbestos yarn. It always leak a little. And the steam comming from the water outlet is from old water standing in the cylinder and starts getting hot. The steam comes in pulses because the waterpump is a piston type and pumps air when the cooling tank is not conected. /Richard
