Is there a simmer setting? 🤔

Try it again after you check all of the air tube, especially the elbow, for obstructions like mud dauber nests or spiderwebs. They can be tricky to get out sometimes. I suspect the diesel will run fine in it afterwards with a good preheat again. I’ve seen enough of these run perfectly on kerosene and would think diesel would at least burn decent.

More exaggerated sounds please .....

Oh my god that's cool

Any idea how strong the compressor may be? Was considering taking the compressor out & converting it into an under the hood air compressor since its military grade.. any thoughts or recommendations ??? Thanks for cool videos ! :)

He likes the idea of having one source of fuel but realizes that if there's a chance of getting diesel to burn then he'll need propane to light it, and the comedy continues to write itself.

OhNO

Any follow up on this?

OH my god 😢

Just a tiny warning. Heating up the axel may damage the seal and even mess with the hardening of the axel, making it easier to bend.

I live in me Tramper van alot, winter time, I suffer from lack of power, have soler panels, now I could go out and get a Gen, £300+, inverter type, or make one of these, £50,

I liked 😂😂😂😂😂 easy right fcknnn shhhhiit how u hook up the fcknnn wires????

I would have liked to know the total output of each. To me this would be a major factor in deciding what one is best. I bought a 3500 wat gas/propane generator from tractor supply. It cost about $500. I have not gotten to find out yet if it can keep up with it's rated output because it can run a table saw two circular saws, and one drill all at the same time. It is a lot larger then the ones you showed. It is probably around 100-150 lb (hard to move by myself) it also has a 5 gal. gas tank so it can run for about 6 hr with a heavy load, or around 12 with a light load (one table saw used about twice an hr) it has an outlet rated at 30amps 120 v can any of those you showed even get close to that? I bought it to supplement the solar in my RV, but use it most as a power source for working on remote job sites. I would like to know the output of the diy generator. Also as a side note, I believe you could use two alternators on your diy and still have enough power from the motor. This would require a really expensive inverter to keep up with it as well. All in all not a bad video, just left me with more questions than answers.

It is easy to clean, so I don’t care clog. Kerosene and mineral spirit works good. Use torch to prime and beautiful blue flame. I am not turn 100% open , 70% pure blue flame , 100% open is blue bottom yellow top flame

You have to supply voltage to energize the field of the alternator unless you got a self energizing unit. The generator has to be polarized so it will work by just momentarily shorting out put to ground.

My father built a 12V portable generator to charge the batteries in our popup camping trailer that had battery powered lights. I think he got it from an article in Popular Mechanics. It used a small gas motor with a horizontal drive shaft mounted on an aluminum frame. He tried it first with a car alternator and it wouldn't work. A local generator/alternator repairman told him he needed an old car generator, which he happened to have. The horizontal shaft drove a v-belt to a pulley on the generator. That didn't work at first either until he found he needed to have the voltage regulator hung loosely nearby instead of being bolted down. I don't understand why but it worked. I sold the unit at auction because we no longer used it. Hope this helps you or gives you some ideas. This was back in the mid 1970s. I don't know if you could even find the components today. Could be another project for a video. I'd love to see it.

What a great looking car.

The Model T. A motor that could run on Gas, Kerosene and get this, Ethanol. Meaning if you ran outta fuel, all you had to do was make the strongest Moonshine you could, and the thing could run on it.

Can you comment on, explain, or do a video on your ammo box controller? Sweet video, I came across a M2A stove and did a quick check to see what i've come across. I'm guessing that is diesel too? Anywho, figuring out the power hookup (controller and converter) would be my biggest hold-ups, as i'd want this for prepping/camping, would be curious to see what further you can share on these units.

Sounds good. What happened to the dash board and where is the Battery / Magneto / lights switch?

Wot kind of man uses a funnel? Nice to know what my new to me 42 year old Coleman stove can use for fuel as Coleman fuel is 22.000 a liter and gas is 1.76 / liter where I live .One video I watched the guy wrapped the tube in copper wire to enhance the heat to vaporize the fuel?

He did a good experiement and confirmed a null hypothesis. That deserves a thumbs up, so click him one. This is an important finding.

Does this help with error code 5?

First! hi! Could part of the problem be that you sheared off the crank key messing up the timing worser?

First! Can you start over? I missed the first part. Oh, I see that you have the ultra rare, Posideon version that is worth $10,000 if o in one piece. oopsies 😆

Bro, it's purring like a kitten 😺 Years ago, a guy invited me over to watch him bore out the new main bearings that he just poured. Wild stuff. I'm sure you familiar with the process the factory used on the main bearings? I can't wait until we put NOS on this rascal! Wooohooo!

Bro ❤️👍

Bro! 👍👍👍

Awesome! Liked and subscribed.

Way too cool..👍🏻

At low idle she sounds like a litter of piglets licking a plate of Jell-O

Try a semi truck alternator, They put out like a girl with a middle name Lynn or sue on prom night

Well a few thoughts, first maybe the two cycle engine is a good idea because it makes power on every stroke unlike a 4 cycle engine, second even a 60 amp automotive alternator will require about five horse power to run it but will require more than 3600 rpms if direct driven. Think about in a car it's most likely being over driven by 500% in a car looking at the crank pully vs. the Alternator pully. And the next question is the Alternator producing 13.8 volts DC or will you look to get 3 phase A/C without rectification after modifying the alternator? Sorry but I missed the first installment of this video.

I did a generator and 3 hp briggs on a piece of wood with half inch steel pipe that fit loose about 3 inch long with two holes drilled and used heavy nails as drive pins, still works 40 years later generator is electric start

Pto universal joint with keyway and set screw on like half inch shafts the alt pulley gets removed

The alternator RPM range is about 6000 and most weed eaters run around that range. They are probably only around 3000 at idle so you'll have to rig it to run at higher throttle. Hopefully it has the torque to turn the alternator without slowing down too much.

I had the same idea this summer for running a 12v water pump instead of lugging a 60lb marine battery back and forth between the water tank and home to charge it once a week.... Looking forward to seeing how it works and hopefully I can give it a try this winter.

I think you will need more horses to get significant output

OMG they’re so old sparky

OMG there’s a plasma ball

Year1 diesel is cool

I’ve brought hellfire missiles to fistfights, and firefights, both with equally sufficient outcomes. Bonus, my brothers and I are here to go camping with our kids. The MBU is a beast!

Use no. 1 diesel fuel if you must. Kerosene has a lower sulfur content and burns cleaner. Most diesel engines will run on it just fine.

Hey man I don’t know if you’ll even see this, but this build is sick and I’m in the process of doing something similar because I saw a post on Reddit. Hope I don’t make you mad by copying a little 😅 If you have an instagram and still doing cool stuff I’d love to drop a follow!

What a cool machine, I love it, good find & fix, not the sort of thing you go hiking with, but yeah a smaller version would be great for campers, boats, etc. the compressor seemed quiet & cant use much power either, boiling about 10ltrs in 10 minutes is pretty awesome. I would like to see you get the Coleman going properly on deisel, that would be handy camping with deisel 4wd for a 1 fuel solution. Cheers
