Cold Start....with flames!!!!

[@turtleman5.9]

Ahhhhhh, the smell of diesel in the morning. That's the kind of stuff that'll work up a good appetite

[@jbmbanter]

Now, that was a great 'cold start!' Don't know what the air temp was but the fireball was what made it so good!

[@lewiemcneely9143]

They''ll pop when they get loaded up sometimes BUT the V-12 sure spins and starts smoking like it ought to now. Just keep squeezing the stop and grinding them limbs! And PLEASE don't let the snow stay on your semi-blue suede booties! Prayers, BLESSINGS and Hug Goomerish Younguns on a regular basis!

Love the cold start snow is nice unless freezing roads in great video John

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Best cold start ever! That was wild!

[@welder78s7]

Nice cold start . I seen one of your guys chip truck going north past the shop that I work at. Stay safe out there

[@rongreene1788]

I'm OCD so I would never be able to leave at the end of the work day without first clearing the conveyor.

[@jeffcampbell6314]

John, l can almost smell the unturned diesel!

[@ThatChipperGuy]

It smells wonderful round here in the mornings!

[@michaelbrown8545]

Me thinks you guys have been playing Dr Diesel on that 3412 governor and have all the settings totaly Screwed up. The low and high idel setting is one of the simplest adjustments you can make on those hydra mechanical governors. The flames are just unburnt fuel that has blown out of the cylinders that aren't firing being ignited in the exhaust manifold by the cylinders that are firing. Injectors may be getting a bit sad making it hard to start cold as the diesel is thick and does not want to atomize. Cheers mate 🍻

[@johnnyholland8765]

That is cold start hall of fame material there fella! Say Michigan has snow? Well heck yea it's Michigan! Would a generator and block heater do any good. That has got to be brutal on that engine.

[@fei-forestry6169]

My old 3412 was cold blooded, you had to snuggle up and get her warmed up to get it to go Ha ha go Cummins!

[@waynetharp]

Why does all the cool stuff always end up being expensive in the end??? Glad you were able to get it on film!😁

You need reversing fans to keep the snow and sawdust off. The cold weather is headed your way. Stay warm.

This is old school here!

[@ts-jq3st]

Tired old mechanic what is that?

[@MrDaniel3105]

That's interesting about the snow I thought it would help cool it down that much more if it was snow only no ice

[@dennisfelix1507]

I always give you a 👍. Don’t comment very often. That cold start sir, was impressive 👍👍👍👍

[@ThatChipperGuy]

Thanks for watching

[@kevinlewis7882]

What a startup, snow looks great but not easy to work with it around

[@shawnmoss9637]

Do you notice a big difference in wood processing in the winter vs summer what I mean is. Is it harder or Easyer chipping is quality better or worse or is it harder on equipment im sure it is harder on equipment in the winter because nothing really likes the cold things are more brittle and can't flex as easy oil is thicker but thanks for the cold start that was a pretty good show

[@josephboley]

she wasn't happy that's for sure. 😂

[@cindytepper8878]

I think I'd invest in a propane powered block heater for that Cat on the chipper. So much easier on them to not have cold starts

[@markrasmussen7918]

I’ll bet NASA can see that thing smokin from outer space.

[@aussiebogan9896]

Haha more than likely

[@spdwebdotnet]

Just some unburned fuel vapors making for a good show. You could in fact give it a little more rpm to see if you can get those cylinders firing a little quicker. The unburned fuel can accelerate wear by washing past the rings. The old two strokes where particularly sensitive to this.. hence the saying... "Mash your finger in the door and hold it to the floor"

[@cidertom5140]

You are wrong about the saying it’s because you had to flog the guts out of a Detroit and keep them near the red line ( 2500 for a 71 series Detroit )to get anywhere they weren’t ones to lug unlike a Gardner max tourque - 1100 rpm. Gardeners were known rfor reliability,durability,fuel efficiency and being easy to work on and they were cool runners.

No no no Michigan weather for me, thats why I moved to Arizona's dry and nice weather. Please though California's people stay in your own state!!!

[@randlerichardson5826]

Looks like a tree stand in that tree behind the chipper

[@ThatChipperGuy]

It is

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

I was hoping to see the chipper working

[@rajbeekie7124]

John, are all chipper engines this hard to start or this one is just shot? You mentioned the fuel injector. Is that the only problem? If not, what would it take to start easily?

[@The_blindpizzaguy1300]

Diesels do not like the cold. If it’s below 30° you are not gonna have an easy time starting it usually, and if it is covered in snow you are likely going to get similar results. And the colder it is and the longer it sits Will determine how it starts. If it has been sitting for a couple of days and it has snowed and it’s like 15° Will commonly see a response like this on any diesel engine. However in John’s case not only does he have a cold issue to worry about he’s also got those other engine issues, which just makes things way more difficult. He’s got some work to do to it but that engine still has A long way to go before it’s “shot.”

[@caterpillarman456]

Somebody needs to learn about the use of starting fluid, after the engine starts. All the grey smoke is from one or two cylinders not firing. continuing to operate this way will almost guarantee a valve stuck in a guide and major failure.

[@codykrehbiel5073]

Diesel motors cold will run high rmp till they warm up u probably actually damaged that motor holding it low there are computers in place to take care of the motor

[@greghendershot6126]

No computer on that engine.
