Part 7 of the T-34
We fit Batterys and try for a start 

[@thol7706]

From experience, the best way to remove and fit batteries to a T34 is to place a long, 12in wide piece of wood though the drivers hatch to the engine. Then slide the batteries through the drivers hatch through the tank to get them close to the battery bay on the wood.

[@MrHewes]

With stubborn diesel engines the old trick is use a rag soaked in fuel that's on fire and let that fire get sucked down the intake when cranking. Of course remove the air filter before doing this. You will be amazed how diesels love a bit of flame when starting.

To make it easier to start the engine, you need to remove the air filter, install the burner, light it so that hot air enters the intake manifold. When hot air enters the engine, diesel fuel ignites more easily.

[@pinkyfull]

@@scorchedearth1451 Incorrect, t-34's in ww2 were notoriously unreliable. Real mix of qualities coming from individual factories combined with wartime strain meant that the engine was shockingly unreliable, as you can see here. That isn't that surprising though a tank is a giant tractor with a sports car engine when you stop and think about it so its not really surprising that so many of them are pigs to get going. Shame that basically the same engine is in the t-72 series (yes that includes the t-90)
