It's English built tho

Its British built and british brains lmao...😂😂

Sempre tem um br

Some of our American (and probably others) WWII fighter aircraft started with shotgun cartridges.

@@LGTheOneFreeMan that's actually pretty cool and practical

The broken wrist from hand cranking was called a Ford fracture back in the day.

Ok boomers Jk

ever seen a German super heavy no electric ignition lol

That won't happen if you have your thumb behind the crank

Why didnt they make them ratchet?

lol ikr what is that for

😂

What does that mean "you can't move"

@@dbear3 Thought it was a common expression but maybe it's not. It just means there are a lot of them.

I heard the correct cartridges cost £5 each. I should imagine they'll have more propellant but slower burning than a shotgun cartridge

Seen the recipe for loading those rounds , combination of black and smokeless rifle powder...a lot of powder ..23 grs blk and 160 grs of smokeless , and a crimp on the shell

40 Hp at the Flywheel 750 RPM

Even in the 40's there were several U.S. built diesel and gasoline tractors with electric start. In fact I'm pretty sure Farmall sent some over to Europe in ww2 for road building and such. So its a mystery to me why this tractor is the way it is? Looking at American tractors that would of been more like a 1920's start up procedure, not a 1948. Although I know the 40's farmalls had both, in case the battery died you could hand crank it.

@@gittyupalice96 Why? Simple: making and selling price, ease of maintenance, repair cost, and pig headed farmers who always preferred simpler/cheaper stuff.

@@LesAventuresDeTigRRe not to mention you could literally drop this thing in the middle of nowhere and it wouldnt matter if your battery died. I imagine the simplicity was a HUGE selling point as well. People used to fix their own stuff.

Marshalls imported a couple of Lanz tractors in the 30s and copied and improved the design. by being able to start without the blow lamp the Lanz used. They went from Semi-diesel to full diesel. I have a few parked up here 👍🇬🇧

Even though this is a pretty tough machine, the slug would probably dent the inside of the cylinder or worse.

Yup .

EMP? Electromagnetic pulse - so the variation of the magnetic field, induces in nearby conductors, coils, etc a variation in electrical field. If the component is very sensitive (a computer unit) to voltage, then EMP can fry the computer because of the extra induced voltage all over by the EMP. Now on cars, if an EMP would target a car, might fry various sensitive electronics, but starter and battery and alternator and those short thick wires are not going to do much in presence of EMP. Because the EMP field can only deliver a spike of voltage and low amps. Only sensitive electronics can get damaged. A car that is impervious to any EMP would be an old diesel car with injection pump (rotary or inline). The fuel system is all mecahnical, can run without battery or alternator, can be pushstarted (manual gearbox) or windup starter. I had a VW golf mk2 diesel that could run without a battery (but no headlights, signals, horn, etc). I actually drove that golf without a battery for a 300km trip (battery was shot, removed it completly and bought a new one, but in time being i had to get home, so i've push-started, drove in daylight. - back in the 90's, no DRL requirements) Anyway, EMP is not like in the movies. Most power electronics are impervious to EMP (on the scale we know now, not talking about giving a MRI to a car battery, or solar flares in the outer orbit, or other large scale of EMP energy), and small electronics are sensitive to EMP because they were not designed to cope with EMP. Harder to do, but with EMP resistence in mind it is doable to design protection accordingly (any space vehicle has a lot of protection for other induced voltages like EMP from solar flares and Roentgen induced currents from the radiation).

@@AsiAzzy I suspect an older petrol (gasoline) car in pre-computer days - say up till 1980 - would be pretty impervious to a moderate level of EMP also. Except maybe for the car radio. Yes it relies on electricity, but the only electronic components in it would be the capacitor in the distributor (which is designed to take electric spikes) and the diodes in the alternator (which also need to be pretty rugged). Even if the alternator died, the battery would still power the ignition. (I once drove my Ford Escort home 400km on a battery. The alternator failed one night. So next morning I bought a new battery (the old one was not only flat but fairly tired, and there was no way I could get alternator spares on a weekend) and drove home on battery only. Just made it home before the battery went flat, and just after it got dark :)

Wasn't it in a movie? They crashed and had to rebuild, then flew it out. Have you seen that movie?

It's a blank shotgun shell

Well, if you're going to be bone idle and lie in bed until that time....

@@davidjones332 id rather turn the key and get straight into it. There's a reason why they forgot about these junk machines a long time ago.

Not directly. The design is similar (big low-speed single-cylinder engine mounted horizontally) but very different in the details. The Field Marshall engine is a true diesel, while the Lanz used a semi-diesel 'hot bulb' engine that had to be pre-heated with a blowlamp.

@@jozg44 Italian Landini Built a similar machine

It doesn't. They are not technically shotgun shells or even blank shotgun shells. They are PowerStart shells. A blank might work but bird/buck/slug would seize the engine and you would have to tear it down to remove the lead.

So you saying that the German Lanz bulldog tractor is easier to start? You have to wait 10 minutes to heat the engine head! This tractor in the video is easy. You just put a paper in the plug and crank it. It is that easy! Also not all tractors built in england are like that. I am not hating on German tractors i am just saying that you are wrong

@@dieselgeezer18 it's a joke

It says you can start it with one, it never said they will start it with one, he explained why
