MONSTER 3cyl COLD START Blackstone spring injection diesel engine

[@SrKevinWolf90]

I love the sound the engines make from the airblast diesel injection. When I hear one, I quickly know what type of injection it is.

The Industrial Revolution. This is a monument to an exceptional period of history that freed mankind from drudgery!!!!

@@ttm2609 you should be happy; it was also the beginning of Marxism

[@AidanHyland-i2g]

Incredible stuff, runs really smooth.

What engine is making that nice thumping noise in the background?

[@MrCrabbing]

What HP would that be putting out

[@SGmotorsport9590]

Probably around 160 something. It's really really old so even 160 would be very impressive

[@rustyrelics]

I'll be honest, I can't remember. But a single cylinder of the same size is 28-30hp so if we say somewhere around 90-100hp you wouldn't be far off

My brother and I saved and removed this engine back in 1989. We also got it up and running in the pumping station before we removed it.

[@theenginemanfromthepast.]

It's actually 250 hp built in 1925 👍

[@rustyrelics]

Christ I didn't realise it was that big!!!. Where did it come from originally Steven?

[@Kaghemsuha]

He's older than the engine itself.

[@rustyrelics]
