Well I mean, so far it only kinda half started, so half price? ;) Lol

J Kingsley are you from the HOUSTON Texas area?

@@joshredding9588 Negative. South Louisiana

Definitely, it would help to MAKE AMERICA GREAT for reals. AMERICA desperately needs leadership That s all about AMERICA 🇺🇸 👏 🙌 😍 Kick start that once forgotten pride Can I Get a CLEAR PROP.

Thank you, Jimmy, for sponsoring those ten kids through Swan Aviation. The world needs more Jimmys, like you.

Agreed

Agree 100% brother

@@wtfwtfwtf7477 #CLEARPROP FTW

I know what you mean! Love the airplane channels but jimmy’s world is the best! I was born and raised as a child on Melbourne airport (Florida) and now it’s an International airport. Go figure. My pilot father is long gone now but I love aviation even tho I did not care to fly that much. Four other family members are pilots as well. Love watching the takeoffs and landings from Osh Kosh too!!

@@patriciakane7008 Same here. Since I was a kid, living near an airport in the Panhandle of Texas, I was always enthralled with airplanes of any kind. There was a scheduled airline flight (Central Airlines) that flew DC3's over our house and I would run out and watch every day. I took my flying lessons in Oxnard California in a Grumman TR2 back in the early 70's. Loved flying but eventually ran out of money to continue. I too watch the airplane youtube sites...rebuild rescue, and the blancolira channel are the other 2. Now I fly the X Plane simulator, at least it allows me to pretend in my old age. (mid 70's)

yeah that sounds plausible!

I agree completely. Sounds like the timing is advanced.

I'm not a mechanic and my first thought when hearing it was timing. Would be interested to see if that is the case.

It def has some democrat timing issues it sounds retarded 🇺🇸✌🏻😂

That is exactly what I was thinking,, you could feel the force behind it. Hopefully it will be o.k. internally. Good video and generous nice one Jimmy give yourself a big pat on the back.

Good advice. Lots of PIpers have that system and could very well explain the kickback problem on that engine.

Jimmy's got alot to learn about old Bendix drive starters. Unfortunately the hard way. Bendix starters don't disengage till its starts.

@@Nord3202 So it's like an outboard engines starter?

He should know this considering he's dealt with an Aztec with Shower of Spark

THAT IS WHAT I THOUGHT I SAW BUT WHEN IT FIRED AND RAN THE LITTLE BIT IT DID IT WAS SMOOTH SO I WAS CORNFUSED....LOL

Well said.

That's the difference between a modern automotive electronically controlled engine verse a mechanically driven one, they are more difficult to start since it doesn't have the electronic flexibility, but are more reliable once started since it has minimum points of failure.

@@mofayer true that. My dad had a 1964 Piper Cherokee 235 back in the early 2000s with an old Lycoming O-540 in it. The engine had a lot of hours on it and we flew it for years putting hundreds of hours on it. Sometimes it would take 5-10 minutes to get it running but once it was running, it never shut off once until he told it to haha

This also applies to computers, except normally step 3 is step 1.

Derek and Jimmy should switch sometime. That would a show: Derek trying to start an airplane engine and Jimmy dealing with a '59 DeSoto....

@@sp1nrx YES!! That’s an excellent idea…. Would be a hoot..

Very soon :)

@@therealjimmysworld awesome bud looking forward to it..thanks

Wish I was there in Florida I'd love to volunteer my time with ya, I never got my certifications because of financial issues but I completed my airframe courses and started the power plant courses when financing went caput, and now I'm just to danged old to complete the certifications, life just got in the way lol but I love working on airplanes got burnt out on automotive work loved aircraft. I love your vlog mu friend your very insightful and just a joy to watch you work things out it's awesome . Can't wait till the next one, haven't missed a one..did you find another spinner cover yet for the blue tarp special yet? Don't you have one from your other Aztec you got when you picked up the 310? Couldn't you use one of those just curious. Anyways love what you do bud keep it up. Sure would love to see that p51 replica up in the air too. That thing looks awesome lol. Well hope you had a great independence day for you and yours....

The timing is fixed. So there is no timing advance unit. The engine will always be starting in an advanced state. That's why a lot of planes "start hard." I think it started hard because he didn't have a battery in it. Even though he had a "jump" that is not how you should start it.

@@mikegoodman447 Hi Mike. The new engine didn't have the same issue when being started for the very first time, jumped from the same source. That only leaves the starter, either worn or loose, starter or earth cable have a resistance.

@@mikegoodman447 Hi Mike, Martin again from the UK. I thought the start hard was due to them being long stroke engines. 🤔

@@martin4787 A car starts typically around just a few degrees advanced. The mag system they use is fixed at around 22 degrees or so. When everything is just right fuel mixture and such the engine will want to bust off just as soon as the spark gets there. So if it is spinning to slow an early firing will make the engine kick back If it were say rich, the engine might not kick back as rapidly and start just fine. If the timing was way off the thing would have broken way before this.

@@mikegoodman447 So there is no mechanical advance and retard in the mags Mike? Why is that Mike?

Yes the front strut seemed a bit low.

Ooh! That would be a real project, for sure!

Lockheed Lodestar? Wow! Sure to bring the "Friendlies" of the FAA to your door to make sure it never flies again! 🎱

I have several adjustable wrench's, some are sae, and the others are metric😉

@@gotchagoing8843 we must buy or tools from the same people :)

My father called them a Polish micrometer (no offense to Poles...)

If your Dad was a KC-135 pilot, what does that make you? 🤔

Every project needs a Big Fooking Hammer! I always cringe when I see an adjustable crescent wrench, a pair of slip joint pliers, or a BFH being used on an Aircraft or Engine. Airplanes require finesse and patience to work on and don't respond well to brute force. 😉

STARTING THE MOTOR ON 0 OIL PRESSURE WOULD BE WORSE...RIGHT? NOT LIKE THEY COULD HAVE INSTALLED A TANK IN 10 MIN BEFORE THE VID,,,LOL

Jimmy could have used a insect sprayer or even simple oil can and applied pressure while turning it over by hand. Spinning any engine over should be pressurized after it has sat for a number of years. A cheap small insect sprayer could be pumped up and stuck in the oil line.

@@mikegoodman447 coulda woulda shoulda ...lol its over and done im sure he has pondered the idea and felt the juice wernt worth the squeeze...lol
