This is the ACTUAL vehicle that recently (Nov. 2022), seriously burned Jay Leno. In this video, as Jay attempts to light the vehicle's burner, you can clearly see the flame briefly burning out of control and the ignited fuel dripping down towards the floor. This is EXACTLY how Jay sustained his burns in this current incident. With Jay's always positive attitude, I trust that Jay will make a full recovery.

12:01 foreshadowing 😑Hope Jay's doing well soon, one of the most genuine car lovers in the world.

i love it how he's explaining it like a tutorial. Like we searched: how to get my White steam car started

Jay Leno deserves a federal grant to expand his museum and hire fulltime workers or create a historical mechanical school, America deserves this

Thank you so much, Jay. I'd rather spend a day in you garage, than a week at Disney World.

It’s easy to see how this car could burn him up with that pilot light system….speedy recovery Jay!

Love how Jay says stuff like "what you want to do with this is..." Like there is people watching who happens to have a 1907 White Steam car and need tips on how to maintain it :P

It's absolutely incredible how much knowledge Jay has on these cars. ALL of his cars. You practically have to have an engineering degree to know how to drive and operate these properly.

Wow, the segment that starts at 4:23 is scary to watch, now. I can see how easily an accident could happen. Wishing Jay a full recovery!

What I find most amazing about steam cars, is that even though many were made over 100 years ago, the mechanics and engineering involved are still awe inspiring. I can look at them for hours and hours just admiring the way they work and the sophistication with which they were built. I have built a few small model steam engines, the type that sit on a desk as an ornament of sorts. The first project I made after purchasing my mill/lathe combo machine was a small steam engine kit. I wish I had the means to afford a steam car, but for now my model engines are quite nice.

the old steam cars are the coolest thing ever made!

Jay is now out of the hospital!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

The first SUV - Steam Utility Vehicle?

I've watched a lot of Jay's videos, and while the more modern cars are interesting, I found this video - and this car - extremely interesting. Very well done, Jay.

My Uncle Billy Zerega in Wash. D.C. was a Stanley man and had two. One of them was a big six seater and the other was a 2 seater almost like a buckboard with a glass round plate windshield in front and turn handle with no steering wheel. Uncle Billy had many cars like Maxwells and Empires and Oldsmobiles and I loved helping him as a young boy in his basement shop. He made everything from blueprints, by hand and he was a true artisian/craftsman. He built brass lantern and wheels and rolled his own steel. He had a lot of friends in antiques and I miss him. He was a steam fitter by trade and his Steamers were his pride and joys. They called him steamer Billy and he was renowned as one of the best. He was friends with Harra and traded parts annually with him . They collected for each other ! Hes gone know and I havent seen him since 73 when my mom passed away back there.

This is the infernal machine that nearly killed Jay Leno.

Jay Leno's love for cars outdoes his standup comedian/host work. Lots of respect for that.

What a beautiful piece of history, and a fine restoratiom job. An example of what every celebrity should do with their money. Cheers

Jay! Sorry to hear about the accident. I hope you are not hurting too bad. I appreciate you making all these videos. I know you do it out of love. Thank you.

Thank you for preserving history, Jay.

-car catches on fire- "ok little too much"

The throttle in the steering wheel is so cool

Sending healing prayers for your complete recovery, Jay 🙏

Jay is literally a curator at this point. He's preserving history!!

I love watching his videos, he does a great job describing everything to the point you feel like you are there. I like how he even leaves his mistakes in, it just reinforces the illusion that you are beside him just hanging out.

Your knowledge of your car's is very impressive. Your affection for them radiate s throughout the videos. Thank you for the lessons.

TMZ is saying this was the car in the accident, and what a beautiful car. Hope you get better soon Jay.!

Thanks for this tutorial. Now I know how to start my 1907 White Steam Car.

This is the one that attacked Leno's face! Heal up quickly!

those old cars are something special, really beautiful works of art, but at the same time it should make one appreciate the ease and convenience of a modern car and just how far we've come. You just get in, turn the key, or in some cases push the button and off you go.

It's great that Leno goes through all this effort, even though he only gets 50K views. He does this because he likes doing it, and that is very admirable

According to the news reports, this is the car that Jay Leno recently suffered third-degree burns from while working on. Thankfully he is okay and recovering in the hospital! Not sure what the state of the car is, but it reportedly “burst into flames.” 😢

Thank you, Jay. Love you cars and the way you talk about them. Pure joy to watch you.

Kids these days: push to start.... Seeing how this car operates is awesome. I learned so much! And seeing how finicky it is with the fuel system, wow. It's no wonder there was an accident. Nice to see Jay made a full recovery!

reminds me of my first computer, ZX81: Sinclair operating system, cassette storage, hooked up to antenna on a TV, and a proprietary 'keyboard'

I know you've been messing with automobiles your whole life Jay, and I find your incredible knowledge of all of them just amazing. I'm 72 and just enjoy your videos so very much. In my opinion, your "Jay Leno's Garage" videos are the most interesting videos on all of KZfaq. Thank you for sharing your wonderful experiences. I really appreciate all you do.

Another great car. The neat thing about a steam engine is it is double acting, which means you get 2 power impulses per revolution of the crank. On a 2 cylinder double acting compound engine it would be the equivalent of an 8 cylinder 4 stroke engine. The reason for a high pressure and low pressure cylinder is the high pressure steam enters the high pressure cylinder and on the exhaust stroke it is used a second time when it enters the low pressure cylinder. The low pressure cylinder is always larger because the steam is used a second time and the pressure is less hence if you increase the surface area of the piston you can still extract energy from the steam.

I absolutely love your steam videos, Jay. Very informative and interesting!

Thank you Mr Leno for all you do to preserve and explain everything about all your beautiful machines!

I've enjoyed every video I've clicked on so far... You give a good explanation of things, and then take it for a drive, and we get to see/hear what these things sounded like, looked like, etc.... Keep it up...

what an amazing determination of restoring this to its glory....time, money & un-shakeable passion !! congrates & its an amazing restoration !!!

Great explanation on everything Jay! That was really interesting learning how the steam system worked.

It's a FASCINATING vehicle. Cheers and thanks, another great show Jay!!!

This is far better than the Tonite show. Jay Leno is the man 😎😎😎

This was the car that blew up in Leno's face

Such a wonderful vehicle. I must say, Jay's knowledge about these cars is outstanding. It's simply fascinating to listen to him explain how they work.

I never appreciated steam cars, until I found them here on your Garage, thank you Jay! What a day and age then and what a sight to be hold now, almost like rolling magic with it's arcade of steam, like seeing a futuristic past! Truly amazing, thanks again ❤

When driving was an event. What a awesome piece of history. TY so much for keeping this and showing it off. TY for driving history. Cars were made to be driven, you are a true historian.

Fascinating! Easy to see why it was so popular and reliable. Your videos are terrific and informative. So sorry to hear of your accident. Get well soon!!

Jay it nice your keeping history alive. I wish I had a steam car like that. I like steam engines as well keep it up.

Jay, get well quickly. We learn so much from you.

Jay is very good at explaining the engineering side of the cars and bikes. Absolutely have to watch this regular basis.. especially the Doble...thanks mate.

youtube gold

looks safe.....sheiiiiiiiiit

Jay Have a healthy and speedy recovery. Be well and don't use that car for a while!!! 🙏

I love the history and the way he tells it, I'm just constantly smiling.

Wow ppl really needed to know their shit back then

Perfect episode

Outstanding presentation of data; so enjoyable to watch and learn from!

Absolutely love Jay his videos on his cars and stuff that you don't really know about is so educational... keep up the good work looking forward to you're next video

For a second I thought it was a gigantic match that I have never seen in my life.... until he clicks it that is..

What an amazing car. The build is incredible. Thanks Jay, so glad you have your channel. Sure miss you on The Tonight Show, Johnny then you were class acts and real. Sad to say I don’t watch any late night shows anymore, they all have their political agenda and it is so sickening. You are loved by millions 😍.

Sweet car Jay...! Thank you for showing the car... And saving history...

Jay? I just found this video and have heard of White Steam Cars but never had anyone explain the theory and design of the White as well as you have. I can remember as a kid back in 56 occasionally seeing a White Steam Car go by in North Reading, Massachusetts and tried to follow it on my bicycle but was never able to catch it. I now know why the owner loved that car so much. Never found out what happened to the car after the owner passed. All I knew is he was in his 70's when I first saw the car. Thank You for the education of the White Steam Car.

"Go have a coffee, when you come out the house has burnt down" ... lol

if it was up to James watt. This car would have a square boiler, no fire tubes and no high pressure steam. Richard Trevithick is the man who deserves the recognition.

Jay, this is a lovely website. I learn so much from your commentary. Best wishes.

We love the pre-war stuff! Especially the steam and brass-era. Would love to see the rest of the steam videos that used to be on the old website, uploaded to KZfaq, and more made. Thanks much Jay!

Probably the finest- most perfect and fascinating car I`v ever seen....and exciting history...! I`m really amazed- because I consider my interest in cars above average and had never heard about this genius vehicle- and I have passed 40- so a little embarrassed, but/or more impressed....rgdless- U`r Show is the greatest car-show I`v ever seen. Hope to see/find some -60/70s Citroëns sometime- rgdless thx so very much Mr. Leno- U really made my day- many many times!! c;`) brgds

What cost $4500 in 1904 would cost $113226.93 in 2012....

Thanks Jay, very educational and what a beautiful car. I find even the steering wheel to be a work of art.

Thanks so much for sharing your cool stuff Jay!

Can't wait till a solar flare hits and drops the continent back 200 years. Jay Leno will be the only guy driving around L.A. HAHAHAAA

Some foreshadowing here😳🙏

Another wonderful episode. Thank you, Jay.

Patience, knowledge, and a true mechanical affinity for the heart and soul for driving / riding machines - may you mend and heal as you have your wondrous collection🦊

Dear Jay: Heya, man! Going to keep this pretty short and simple. I've been working on a design for a brand-new type of engine I think could stand of bringing steam back in a big way. It's actually a generator designed for hybrid cars, kind of spiritually derived from a combination of the Doble, a combined-cycle jet engine and another little innovation of mine...the lynchpin of the whole design that makes the whole thing work. I'm looking at a better than 90 percent efficiency when paired with the new axial-flow turbine setup I designed. And it would inherently be one of the cleanest-burning engines on Earth, with no exhaust after-treatment or smog equipment required. It's cheap, light, fairly compact, durable, has about a dozen moving parts, and will run on pretty much any liquid hydrocarbon. And yes, this is completely original...I've researched the Hell out of it. The closest thing to it now is a combined cycle jet engine, and that's an easy ten generations behind this design. I really think this could be the future of hydrocarbon-fueled engines...maybe keeping them viable indefinitely, if we can transition to biofuels. Right now, I'm a little short on people to trust...I don't want it getting stolen, or buried by some automaker in the secret files forever. I just want to put this technology out there in the world...and at the very least force them to play the cards they've been holding by publicizing it. Jay, you're the Steam Guy. Your guys know the engineering. And you're probably the only other person I know with the vision to see what this thing's capable of, and the means to help get it built and publicized. I'm not looking to make a billion dollars off this thing...I just want to make the future happen. and I think steam power, with this design, could be it. If all we do is build the thing and put up a KZfaq video to show the world it works, then that would be more than I could have hoped for. I'm going to re-paste this on a few other videos, and hope it gets your attention. And I hope it does. I think you're the one guy who could and would make this thing happen. If you're game, you know how to get hold of me. You can also get a hold of me on Facebook under Richard Rowe, or on Twitter as @invicta1313. Here's hoping you see this, and we can work together soon. Viva la Steam! --- Richard Rowe

This is the car that burned Jay. Hoping you make a nice recovery, Jay.

Another golden moment with old school Jay Leno thank you

What an absolutely wonderful programme brilliantly delivered by Mr Leno!! Fascinating and informative..Ilook forward to watching more! The best! Thank you N.H. (England)

Jay, I don't know how to contact you but thought I'd try posting this here since it's kind of related. There's guy restoring old White Yellowstone Park buses. I thought you might find it interesting. Here's a story about it in the paper: www.ksl.com/?sid=40296753&nid=148&title=slc-man-saves-restores-historic-yellowstone-buses

It is a miracle after watching this again how Jay is never seriously injured himself trying to articulate and utilize this Old Road Warrior as I commented earlier I think there's a reason the 1907 model was left behind too complicated there's too many potential hazards with a vehicle like this there's a reason we moved on from an external combustion engine If u asked me there are just some things while they are fascinating curiosity they're better left in museums in Indiana Jones wants that for us to examine reflect and appreciate how far we've come but it's knowledgeable as Jay Leno is at over 70 years old he made a very catastrophic mistake next time it could cost him more

Still can't believe this car ended setting him on fire recently. Praying for you jay

All These uploads! Jay, you just made my day! thanks!

It's interesting how it's also right-hand drive.

you've got that toolbox mounted to the outside of the car, so what was to stop trolls from stealing bits and pulling a runner?

HOW amayzing it's unbelievable ,i'm crazy about your cars leno thanks for sharing them with us thanks a lot

OMgoodness, this is the most awesome video of the old steam cars, never knew. So interesting from all points. Wish you lived closer.

Damn this steam car sounds complicated.

Wait... Is this still Jay Leno's Garage? How big is this place?

One of the best Jay Leno's Garage episodes I've seen. Always great to see Jay working with 100 year old technology. I'm learning something new from these all the time. Maybe you can use the steam car to tow Carolla's car back to his shop... Love the videos.. Thank you Jay!

Wow. You are an amazing person. Thank you for sharing. You are a gift to our history of automobiles and have added so much to my life and so many others. I knew of your name and of the tonight show. But only really saw you in KZfaq though my interest in cars. Just with your cars alone and all the other stuff. You are truly one of the greatest people in our history. Thank you.

@2:05 "cant blow up" didnt age well... hope you are ok!

by the time you finished with all those steps, you could go and come back walking .

Thanks Jay. Your passion for preserving old technologies is vastly appreciated. I have thought for many years that the steam engine has not finished running its course. With today's technologies it just seems that a steam-over- electric would be a winner.

thank you for showing us this amazing car. It runs very smooth, must have been kinda fun driving those cars back in the 1900's , good old times

The difference between men and boys is the price of their toys!

This is great. You are doing a fine job with this show Mr. Leno.

Love it. Thanks Jay.

Gee, no wonder internal combustion engines killed these off. can you imagine one of these today as a daily driver? By the time you got to work, you'd need to take a break.
