Some nice engines rolling in. Today we spent the day back in East Moline, Illinois at the original R&V factories. There were three R&V Knight and one Moline car there as well. We drove the cars into the original 1905 repair garage where we believe no R&V car has been for 86 years. Photos will appear on the R&V web site soon. For the FATG's there are hundreds of JD tractors at Mt Pleasant as they are the feature tractor this year, and my son Chris stopped count at 60 steam traction engines as well as many other tractors. I will photograph as much as I can. I went to the VanDervoort crypt on Monday in Moline, IL where William and his wife are placed, an absolutely wonderful place and as pristine as it was built in 1916. The VanDervoort family have their own room where also Orlando Root and his wife are placed. Photos soon. This part of the trip and Mt Pleasant is what I came for and if nothing else was well worth the trip and expense. Today once back at Mt Pleasant I started meeting many R&V Register member, some for the first time. Hope to catch some LIST guys over the next few days, I know Curt Andree and Joe Prindle are coming. More soon.

Talks on the car, engine, company and ordnance side of R&V Engineering Co. This has been another major engine show that has been well worth coming all this way for and actually more close comradeship than the 2003 centenary reunion, I think time was the best factor. Many thanks to Barry Tuller for hosting the show, Joe Prindle for his valued information, Joe Kelley, Curt Andree and all the others boys and gals who made it a great week. The presence of the VanDervoort family made it all that much more special. We are off to Chicago for three days R&R (not R&V) and then Los Angeles and then home next Friday. Thanks to all those at Portland, Indiana and Mount Pleasant for an absolutely great time, as usual. Your are a top bunch.

Another excellent weekend at the Rusty Iron Rally in Macksville. An impressive array of engines and a great time was had by all. It is always good to catch up with engine people I have not seen in a while. It is like catching up with family. I took the 12hp R&V for the 6 hour drive up there and it ran well except for the fact that it always sulks when it gets wet. It rained all the way up on Friday and all Friday night. It was fine for Saturday (with big crowds through the gates), poured Saturday night and was fine and sunny today. The rain did make the ground very soft. I had to use low range 4WD to pull the engine and trailer out. I took lots of pics and will sort them out sometime this week.

Webpage and pics will follow in a few days, I'm not as organised as Patrick who has show reports up within 24 hours - this is Africa and things take a bit longer :-) The purpose of this mail is just to say what a great weekend I had. Since I joined this hobby a few years back I have never ceased to be amazed by the really great people I've met. Firstly, on the 2 lists that this mail goes to and then to the local guys I've met. I've often said "Engine guys are the greatest" and this weekend just proved my point once again. I met up with old friends again and met many new friends (the hobby is really growing here). Our show was fantastic but allow me first to explain that we do not have anywhere as many engines as in the USA, Britain or Aus., - we are "small fry" when it comes to "numbers" but the cameraderie and friendship shared and experienced is as great as any of you will ever experience. What a fantastic hobby !! I'm on a "HIGH" right now (which has very little to do with my consumption of "adult beverages" :-) - I have just had such a great time meeting up with "enginemen" and their ladies - what great people - real "salt of the earth" people. I would also like to say (again) thanks to all you friends on these lists (although I've never met you personally) you are all "the greatest". Thanks for all the friendship, all the help that is so readily given, the cameraderie and just for being what or who you are - "enginemen" (and of course your "engine" ladies). A message to my special list friend Reg, I hope one of our Yankee friends shows you this mail. "Reggie" the little "Alfa Laval" Ronnie "N" that you found for me was a STAR. Since I managed to sort out his flywheel problem he has behaved himself perfectly. He ran for PERFECTLY for both days of the show - he never missed a beat (that distinctive Ronnie "N" sound). Spectators made all the right "OOh & AAgh" sounds. He even outperformed his buddy "Rusty" (my Ruston and Hornsby PT) who is my "flagship engine' but seems to have gathered some dirt in his carb which I will sort out next week. "Reggie" stole the show - and that's in spite of the fact that Arnie said that "If I name him "Reggie" I should expect trouble" :-) That's it for now.

Dave PS, Thanks to everyone who participated and particularly to Joe for buying that cute outfit for his wife! PPS, Joe, PICTURES? PPPS, Tim, Did you find any BIG NUTS yet? PPPPS, Terri, Keep in mind what happens at Portland stays in Portland-- mostly! PPPPPS, Missy, are you taking good care of my King Dick? PPPPPPS, That's all folks!

The show was great, the weather was great and most amazingly - THE BALL RUNS! Between my ignorance and bum arm, I absolutely would not even have come close to getting this thing to start without the generous help of a bunch of people. So let me start this message by thanking them: Brice Adams - Stalwart friend and full-time Ball mechanic that did not let up for a minute helping me with the engine. He literally spent hours every day helping me. Devin Holland - Its great to have a teenager to help with the tough jobs(and he helped with that too), but Devin is more than that. He is delightful bright young man that knows more about old engines than I do!(I hope I spelled your first name right???). He helped for hours every day too. Curtis Holland - He provided a lot of help and guidance, especially during bearing shimming. Steve Weber - Oilfield engine engineer extraordinaire who was able to operate the engine so well the engine popped and ran almost immediately on its first firing and later taught me to run this engine. Keith Kinney - Another engine guru that helped at every turn and provided all manner of help and guidance and starting assistance (and tool rental (-: ) Steve Sewell and Tim Brown - Without these two guys letting me borrow their golf carts, I would have wasted hours walking to and fro in the swap area and to downtown Portland SEL engine list members: Just about everyone in the engine area helped in one way or another - Arnie provided tools, Dave gave me some supplies and advice, several lent strong arms to provide starting power (Luke Tonnenberger deserves special mention here) and more. Thank you folks VERY MUCH. AT tractor folks - Gene Dotson constantly checked in and provided moral support. Several helped to locate items in the swap area and the rest provided generous and wise counsel (and beer!) Tri-state: For providing such a great show and the propane. Ackers - Taylor Plumbing, Portland IN - They cheerfully and quickly ordered pipe and fittings and threaded custom length pipe for me. In other words, this was a group effort and represents the best of what technology and the Internet can do. I thank all of you from the bottom of my heart and hope to see all of you next year. Here is a quick video of it running Friday night. I am working on long video that Brice took, but the video is way too large for You-tube and my web site and will get that to you folks as soon as I can manage to figure out how to edit it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6Vw9OpXLNo With very warm regards, Spencer Yost From fero_ah at city-net.com Sun Sep 5 21:07:16 2010 From: fero_ah at city-net.com (Arnie Fero) Date: Mon, 6 Sep 2010 00:07:16 -0400 Subject: [SEL] Portland report In-Reply-To: <4C844554.5030906@atis.net> References: <4C844554.5030906@atis.net> Message-ID: <0b24b0a7d2438d1079177cadd42127c7.squirrel@webmail.city-net.com> SWEEEET!!

One of our oldest (not in age but in experience) collectors presented me with his almost complete collection of "Stationary Engine Magazine".

Try your local DuPont dealer first. If they say no don't stop, Call Speckman Auto Supply 419.394.2345 Ask for Bubba. I know they still mix Centari despite many dealers saying its no longer available. They just don't mix it themselves. Speckman will UPS Paint anywhere in the US. The other older systems are still available, DuPont still makes most of them, just gotta find a dealer who still mixes it. Speckman would know who.

I think he did sell that engine before any work was done on it. I thought this may have been that same engine but I guess not. It seems that the crank is the weak link on these engines; I best be careful with mine when I go to start it. I have seen pictures of two or three of these engines with broken crankshafts.

Vacuum, engine side of the rotating mixer slide, draws fuel up through the pipe and through a pre-drilled jet in the mixer casting. Check the slide is the correct way round. Closed at 10 o'clock, fully open at 2 o'clock, rotationally speaking. Engine side of the slide, the mixer casting has a jet drilled in the bottom of the circular "reservoir". http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2494317430054098493CNqulm This should have a felt pad in it. To start the engine, flood the felt pad with petrol, move the slide to start, and crank the engine. The pad supplies fuel to the engine until fuel is drawn up the pipe from the tank. With petrol in the fuel tank the engine should run set at "1", and as it warms up move the slide clockwise to increase the intake of air increased revs. You may have to keep squirting petrol on to the pad several times until the engine warms up if you are using paraffin (Kerosine?) in the fuel tank. To stop the engine, fully open the slide clockwise. When the engine stops, the fuel drains back to the tank. Fuel won't be drawn up if the slide is too far open. After a few starts you will get the hang of it. Enjoy!

If you could take some detailed pics of your starter (with cover off) so I can better see if there is some sort of wear I sure would appreciate it or if you have some other suggestion.

The lever makes and breaks several sets of contacts to do this. Once the engine fires and speeds up, the flow of electricity is reversed through the circuit and the larger of the two coils. When running and the lever is lowered, the upper lever(or flap) is held up in the charging position by the coils above it and the current flowing through them, holding contacts in place. As the start lever is lowered other contacts return to the charging configuration. The electromagnet has two windings, a large gauge winding and a small gauge winding. When I rebuilt mine I had to rewind the inner (small gauge) coil as the wire had burnt out at some point. When I rebuilt it I could not get it to hold in position, then I realised that I did not know which way the coil was originally connected to the terminals. I reversed the wires and it held in place. (They must have to work in unison). Through the charging circuit there is a circuit for the ignition coil which stops the engine if the upper lever drops though lack of charging current. This could be why yours stops when you let go of the levers. The set was designed to run at full charge i.e. always giving (almost full) power for lighting and/or charging batteries. If the engine speed, hence charge rate dropped, the levers dropped and all stopped. The only governing on the engine was the load and the fixed jet size in the mixer. According to the manual engine speed would be about 1200rpm. I no longer have the wiring diagrams as I sold the set last year. But I should see the owner in next week at a show so I'll ask him for a photcopy of the wiring and send it to you. It may be quicker to try "Delco Don" on Smokstak's Sparks and Arcs. I have dug out two pics showing the two sides of the start control levers and the coil feed terminals. As the lever is raised contacts are broken and others made. You really need a wiring diagram to follow it through. The outer coil terminals:- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2061806560104310933EEoFPO The two square inner coil terminals top left :- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2083897180104310933oMqRzD As the original ignition coil had burnt out I rewired a car coil,(a Delco by co-incidence), and used a knife switch so it could be run from the batteries without any charging taking place. The contactor arms are slightly bent in places and they act as springs against the action of the lever. As for phone number, well, I live on a little island just off your west coast .......called England. Hope this helps you out. Let me know how you get on. Regards, Dave. > Ok Dave, the felt did the trick. Will now put a c-clip in to retain it better. Engine getting fuel now. Also having a problem with the starter switch not holding. I have to hold on to the switch to keep it running. Not sure if one of those contact levers are bent. If you could take some detailed pics of your starter (with cover off) so I can better see if there is some sort of wear I sure would appreciate it or if you have some other suggestion.

The lever makes and breaks several sets of contacts to do this. Once the engine fires and speeds up, the flow of electricity is reversed through the circuit and the larger of the two coils. When running and the lever is lowered, the upper lever(or flap) is held up in the charging position by the coils above it and the current flowing through them, holding contacts in place. As the start lever is lowered other contacts return to the charging configuration. The electromagnet has two windings, a large gauge winding and a small gauge winding. When I rebuilt mine I had to rewind the inner (small gauge) coil as the wire had burnt out at some point. When I rebuilt it I could not get it to hold in position, then I realised that I did not know which way the coil was originally connected to t! he terminals. I reversed the wires and it held in place. (They must have to work in unison). Through the charging circuit there is a circuit for the ignition coil which stops the engine if the upper lever drops though lack of charging current. This could be why yours stops when you let go of the levers. The set was designed to run at full charge i.e. always giving (almost full) power for lighting and/or charging batteries. If the engine speed, hence charge rate dropped, the levers dropped and all stopped. The only governing on the engine was the load and the fixed jet size in the mixer. According to the manual engine speed would be about 1200rpm. I no longer have the wiring diagrams as I sold the set last year. But I should see the owner in next week at a show so I'll ask him for a photcopy of the wiring and send it to you. It may be quicker to try "Delco Don" on Smokstak's Sparks and Arcs. I have dug out two pics showing the two sides of the start control levers and the coil feed terminals. As the lever is raised contacts are broken and others made. You really need a wiring diagram to follow it through. The outer coil terminals:- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2061806560104310933EEoFPO The two square inner coil terminals top left :- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2083897180104310933oMqRzD As the original ignition coil had burnt out I rewired a car coil,(a Delco by co-incidence), and used a knife switch so it could be run from the batteries without any charging taking place. The contactor arms are slightly bent in places and they act as springs against the action of the lever. As for phone number, well, I live on a little island just off your west coast .......called England. Hope this helps you out. Let me know how you get on. Regards, Dave. > Ok Dave, the felt did the trick. Will now put a c-clip in to retain it better. Engine getting fuel now. Also having a problem with the starter switch not holding. I have to hold on to the switch to keep it running. Not sure if one of those contact levers are bent. If you could take some detailed pics of your starter (with cover off) so I can better see if there is some sort of wear I sure would appreciate it or if you have some other suggestion. Also what is your phone number so I can chat with you a bit. > Thanks again, > Curt _______________________________________________ SEL mailing list SEL at lists.stationary-engine.com http://www.stationary-engine.com/mailman/listinfo/sel From fero_ah at city-net.com Fri Sep 17 06:49:33 2010 From: fero_ah at city-net.com (Arnie Fero) Date: Fri, 17 Sep 2010 09:49:33 -0400 Subject: [SEL] Stuffing the ballot box - help needed.

I was very worried that those naughty Yankee buggers would corrupt him, him being so innocent and all !!! Your reply has just explained a recurring nightmare I've had for the last few days. A big truck is approaching me at speed and I cannot get out of the way - All I remember is the letters signwritten on the truck "RHFT". I've tried everything but they did not make sense until now!! "Reg, Harbour Freight Tits" !! No need to contact Dave - I can explain it all. He must have ordered a gift for you from "Harbour Freight" and the silly "Tits" messed up the order and he did not get it in time to take back to you. It's now so clear - no wonder he's having nightmares about it :-) Treat him with tenderness and love, shame, the poor guy will probably take some time to recover from the disappointment. No wonder he's been doing all those chores about the place - he's obviously "trying to forget".

In an effort to keep you informed, the definitions are listed below: GUTS - Is arriving home late after a night out with the boys, being met by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask: ''Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?'' BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the boys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the arse and having the balls to say: ''You're next, fatty.'' I hope this clears up any confusion on the definitions.

The front engine is stuck, most likely from water in one or more cylinders. One head is missing and the cylinder wall is a bit rusty so this may be the one that is stuck. The rear engine does run, however the no. 2 connecting rod bearing disintegrated and apparently the engine was kept in service for a while longer probably until the knock became too much to listen to. The crankpin is now of course galled. I have not yet taken a mic to it to find out how much metal was lost. Actually only one liner was still somewhat intact, the other one was in the bottom of the pan in a million pieces. I need to be able to move this locomotive under its own power to get it out of where it is at and into a new location for rebuilding, probably two miles total. So I am now thinking if there is a way that I can run the engine on five cylinders for long enough to get it where it needs to go. Some of the issues with doing this would be whether it would be better to try to clean up the journal as much as possible, put in a new liner, disconnect the injector and engage the compression release on that cylinder, or to remove the connecting rod, tie the piston and rod out of the way and install a machined clamp that would provide some of the weight of the rod and seal off the oil hole. Anyone ever have to do something like this on a diesel engine? Would such a temporary repair work? For the uninitiated, the LI-600 is a six cylinder inline engine, generating 250 HP at 1000 RPM. 7" bore, 10" stroke. Crankpin is 4.25" dia. First produced in 1929, this engine was built in 1944.

If it was me with this problem and you didn't have access to anything that could pull or push this loco two miles down the track; I think I'd do a modified Plan A. Pull the head and pull that piston & rod. Then go for it. Other wise, Plan B.

Message-ID: <20100921.180816.1000.382749@mailpop07.vgs.untd.com> Hi again Dave. This is a spray rig at Cal Poly Pomona. Originally used by Kellogg himself. Our club (WAPA) is volunteering to restore the rig with Novo engine and triplex pump to working condition. It will probably be pulled around behind an old tractor spraying water, during special events.

Jim K ________________________________ From: sel-bounces at lists.stationary-engine.com on behalf of Rick Rowlands Sent: Tue 9/21/2010 1:22 PM To: The SEL email discussion list Subject: [SEL] Cummins Engine Problem I had a chance to perform a detailed inspection of the Cummins LI-600 diesel engines on our GE 80 ton locomotive. The front engine is stuck, most likely from water in one or more cylinders. One head is missing and the cylinder wall is a bit rusty so this may be the one that is stuck. The rear engine does run, however the no. 2 connecting rod bearing disintegrated and apparently the engine was kept in service for a while longer probably until the knock became too much to listen to. The crankpin is now of course galled. I have not yet taken a mic to it to find out how much metal was lost. Actually only one liner was still somewhat intact, the other one was in the bottom of the pan in a million pieces. I need to be able to move this locomotive under its own power to get it out of where it is at and into a new location for rebuilding, probably two miles total. So I am now thinking if there is a way that I can run the engine on five cylinders for long enough to get it where it needs to go. Some of the issues with doing this would be whether it would be better to try to clean up the journal as much as possible, put in a new liner, disconnect the injector and engage the compression release on that cylinder, or to remove the connecting rod, tie the piston and rod out of the way and install a machined clamp that would provide some of the weight of the rod and seal off the oil hole. Anyone ever have to do something like this on a diesel engine? Would such a temporary repair work? For the uninitiated, the LI-600 is a six cylinder inline engine, generating 250 HP at 1000 RPM. 7" bore, 10" stroke. Crankpin is 4.25" dia. First produced in 1929, this engine was built in 1944. Parts are somewhat available.

Just an idea, Ron... if the tank is in good shape, you could take a sample from the interior and drop it off at the chem lab for analysis. It would probably make those students feel all warm and fuzzy to do something of immediate consequence.

Where can I get a replacement drain hose for my Maytag washer? It is the square aluminum tub with water pump. I have replaced another on an earlier washer without the pump. Got a very heavy hose from Hose Man, it fit but was too stiff and is difficult to keep in the fittings. Would like to find a real replacement, remember seeing one on Ebay years ago but didn't need it then. Thanks.

To keep the oil hole closed the easiest way would be a simple clamp like a muffler clamp with a chunk of strap over the oil hole. Run it just above idle and it should be fine.

Mine is a F.E. Meyers spray rig with a Stover engine like the one on Ebay. The wood is Cypress. I restored mine and bought?Cypress wood?from out of Florida and replaced the top and maybe a couple of boards on the bottom as I remember. ?Jim and Janna Yost Utica, Ohio USA jnyost at yahoo.com ________________________________ From: "rdhaskell at juno.com" To: sel at lists.stationary-engine.com; stationary-engine at oldengine.org Sent: Tue, September 21, 2010 2:51:21 PM Subject: [SEL] Wooden spray tank repair. Hi all. Anyone on the list ever replaced the wood on an old tank for a spray rig? This one is about 4' long, 3' wide and 3' deep.? Round on the bottom and held together with metal rods.? My question is about the long boards? on the sides, the remaining boards are not tongue and groove they just butt together and rely on the wood swelling up.? These boards have a slight curve across their width, were them made that way or over the years of being wet and clamped in place did they curve? A lot of the original wood is there but saturated with arsenic and now hazardous material and cannot be used. Thanks for any suggestions.

There is a medical distinction. We've all heard about people having guts or balls, but do you really know the difference between them? In an effort to keep you informed, the definitions are listed below: GUTS - Is arriving home late after a night out with the boys, being met by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask: ''Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?'' BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the boys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the arse and having the balls to say: ''You're next, fatty.''

Some nice engines rolling in. Today we spent the day back in East Moline, Illinois at the original R&V factories. There were three R&V Knight and one Moline car there as well. We drove the cars into the original 1905 repair garage where we believe no R&V car has been for 86 years. Photos will appear on the R&V web site soon. For the FATG's there are hundreds of JD tractors at Mt Pleasant as they are the feature tractor this year, and my son Chris stopped count at 60 steam traction engines as well as many other tractors. I will photograph as much as I can. I went to the VanDervoort crypt on Monday in Moline, IL where William and his wife are placed, an absolutely wonderful place and as pristine as it was built in 1916. The VanDervoort family have their own room where also Orlando Root and his wife are placed. Photos soon. This part of the trip and Mt Pleasant is what I came for and if nothing else was well worth the trip and expense. Today once back at Mt Pleasant I started meeting many R&V Register member, some for the first time. Hope to catch some LIST guys over the next few days, I know Curt Andree and Joe Prindle are coming. More soon.

Talks on the car, engine, company and ordnance side of R&V Engineering Co. This has been another major engine show that has been well worth coming all this way for and actually more close comradeship than the 2003 centenary reunion, I think time was the best factor. Many thanks to Barry Tuller for hosting the show, Joe Prindle for his valued information, Joe Kelley, Curt Andree and all the others boys and gals who made it a great week. The presence of the VanDervoort family made it all that much more special. We are off to Chicago for three days R&R (not R&V) and then Los Angeles and then home next Friday. Thanks to all those at Portland, Indiana and Mount Pleasant for an absolutely great time, as usual. Your are a top bunch.

Another excellent weekend at the Rusty Iron Rally in Macksville. An impressive array of engines and a great time was had by all. It is always good to catch up with engine people I have not seen in a while. It is like catching up with family. I took the 12hp R&V for the 6 hour drive up there and it ran well except for the fact that it always sulks when it gets wet. It rained all the way up on Friday and all Friday night. It was fine for Saturday (with big crowds through the gates), poured Saturday night and was fine and sunny today. The rain did make the ground very soft. I had to use low range 4WD to pull the engine and trailer out. I took lots of pics and will sort them out sometime this week.

Webpage and pics will follow in a few days, I'm not as organised as Patrick who has show reports up within 24 hours - this is Africa and things take a bit longer :-) The purpose of this mail is just to say what a great weekend I had. Since I joined this hobby a few years back I have never ceased to be amazed by the really great people I've met. Firstly, on the 2 lists that this mail goes to and then to the local guys I've met. I've often said "Engine guys are the greatest" and this weekend just proved my point once again. I met up with old friends again and met many new friends (the hobby is really growing here). Our show was fantastic but allow me first to explain that we do not have anywhere as many engines as in the USA, Britain or Aus., - we are "small fry" when it comes to "numbers" but the cameraderie and friendship shared and experienced is as great as any of you will ever experience. What a fantastic hobby !! I'm on a "HIGH" right now (which has very little to do with my consumption of "adult beverages" :-) - I have just had such a great time meeting up with "enginemen" and their ladies - what great people - real "salt of the earth" people. I would also like to say (again) thanks to all you friends on these lists (although I've never met you personally) you are all "the greatest". Thanks for all the friendship, all the help that is so readily given, the cameraderie and just for being what or who you are - "enginemen" (and of course your "engine" ladies). A message to my special list friend Reg, I hope one of our Yankee friends shows you this mail. "Reggie" the little "Alfa Laval" Ronnie "N" that you found for me was a STAR. Since I managed to sort out his flywheel problem he has behaved himself perfectly. He ran for PERFECTLY for both days of the show - he never missed a beat (that distinctive Ronnie "N" sound). Spectators made all the right "OOh & AAgh" sounds.

The show was great, the weather was great and most amazingly - THE BALL RUNS! Between my ignorance and bum arm, I absolutely would not even have come close to getting this thing to start without the generous help of a bunch of people. So let me start this message by thanking them: Brice Adams - Stalwart friend and full-time Ball mechanic that did not let up for a minute helping me with the engine. He literally spent hours every day helping me. Devin Holland - Its great to have a teenager to help with the tough jobs(and he helped with that too), but Devin is more than that. He is delightful bright young man that knows more about old engines than I do!(I hope I spelled your first name right???). He helped for hours every day too. Curtis Holland - He provided a lot of help and guidance, especially during bearing shimming. Steve Weber - Oilfield engine engineer extraordinaire who was able to operate the engine so well the engine popped and ran almost immediately on its first firing and later taught me to run this engine. Keith Kinney - Another engine guru that helped at every turn and provided all manner of help and guidance and starting assistance (and tool rental (-: ) Steve Sewell and Tim Brown - Without these two guys letting me borrow their golf carts, I would have wasted hours walking to and fro in the swap area and to downtown Portland SEL engine list members: Just about everyone in the engine area helped in one way or another - Arnie provided tools, Dave gave me some supplies and advice, several lent strong arms to provide starting power (Luke Tonnenberger deserves special mention here) and more. Thank you folks VERY MUCH. AT tractor folks - Gene Dotson constantly checked in and provided moral support. Several helped to locate items in the swap area and the rest provided generous and wise counsel (and beer!) Tri-state: For providing such a great show and the propane. Ackers - Taylor Plumbing, Portland IN - They cheerfully and quickly ordered pipe and fittings and threaded custom length pipe for me. In other words, this was a group effort and represents the best of what technology and the Internet can do. I thank all of you from the bottom of my heart and hope to see all of you next year. Here is a quick video of it running Friday night. I am working on long video that Brice took, but the video is way too large for You-tube and my web site and will get that to you folks as soon as I can manage to figure out how to edit it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6Vw9OpXLNo With very warm regards, Spencer Yost From fero_ah at city-net.com Sun Sep 5 21:07:16 2010 From: fero_ah at city-net.com (Arnie Fero) Date: Mon, 6 Sep 2010 00:07:16 -0400 Subject: [SEL] Portland report In-Reply-To: <4C844554.5030906@atis.net> References: <4C844554.5030906@atis.net> Message-ID: <0b24b0a7d2438d1079177cadd42127c7.squirrel@webmail.city-net.com> SWEEEET!!

One of our oldest (not in age but in experience) collectors presented me with his almost complete collection of "Stationary Engine Magazine". He started buying them at issue 13 and stopped about 2 years ago. He was now looking for a new home for them and chose me. Wow what a treasure trove!!

Try your local DuPont dealer first. If they say no don't stop, Call Speckman Auto Supply 419.394.2345 Ask for Bubba. I know they still mix Centari despite many dealers saying its no longer available. They just don't mix it themselves. Speckman will UPS Paint anywhere in the US. The other older systems are still available, DuPont still makes most of them, just gotta find a dealer who still mixes it. Speckman would know who.

Vacuum, engine side of the rotating mixer slide, draws fuel up through the pipe and through a pre-drilled jet in the mixer casting. Check the slide is the correct way round. Closed at 10 o'clock, fully open at 2 o'clock, rotationally speaking. Engine side of the slide, the mixer casting has a jet drilled in the bottom of the circular "reservoir". http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2494317430054098493CNqulm This should have a felt pad in it. To start the engine, flood the felt pad with petrol, move the slide to start, and crank the engine. The pad supplies fuel to the engine until fuel is drawn up the pipe from the tank. With petrol in the fuel tank the engine should run set at "1", and as it warms up move the slide clockwise to increase the intake of air increased revs. You may have to keep squirting petrol on to the pad several times until the engine warms up if you are using paraffin (Kerosine?) in the fuel tank. To stop the engine, fully open the slide clockwise. When the engine stops, the fuel drains back to the tank. Fuel won't be drawn up if the slide is too far open. After a few starts you will get the hang of it. Enjoy!

Will now put a c-clip in to retain it better. Engine getting fuel now. Also having a problem with the starter switch not holding. I have to hold on to the switch to keep it running. Not sure if one of those contact levers are bent. If you could take some detailed pics of your starter (with cover off) so I can better see if there is some sort of wear I sure would appreciate it or if you have some other suggestion. Also what is your phone number so I can chat with you a bit.

The lever makes and breaks several sets of contacts to do this. Once the engine fires and speeds up, the flow of electricity is reversed through the circuit and the larger of the two coils. When running and the lever is lowered, the upper lever(or flap) is held up in the charging position by the coils above it and the current flowing through them, holding contacts in place. As the start lever is lowered other contacts return to the charging configuration. The electromagnet has two windings, a large gauge winding and a small gauge winding. When I rebuilt mine I had to rewind the inner (small gauge) coil as the wire had burnt out at some point. When I rebuilt it I could not get it to hold in position, then I realised that I did not know which way the coil was originally connected to the terminals. I reversed the wires and it held in place. (They must have to work in unison). Through the charging circuit there is a circuit for the ignition coil which stops the engine if the upper lever drops though lack of charging current. This could be why yours stops when you let go of the levers. The set was designed to run at full charge i.e. always giving (almost full) power for lighting and/or charging batteries. If the engine speed, hence charge rate dropped, the levers dropped and all stopped. The only governing on the engine was the load and the fixed jet size in the mixer. According to the manual engine speed would be about 1200rpm. I no longer have the wiring diagrams as I sold the set last year. But I should see the owner in next week at a show so I'll ask him for a photcopy of the wiring and send it to you. It may be quicker to try "Delco Don" on Smokstak's Sparks and Arcs. I have dug out two pics showing the two sides of the start control levers and the coil feed terminals. As the lever is raised contacts are broken and others made. You really need a wiring diagram to follow it through. The outer coil terminals:- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2061806560104310933EEoFPO The two square inner coil terminals top left :- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2083897180104310933oMqRzD As the original ignition coil had burnt out I rewired a car coil,(a Delco by co-incidence), and used a knife switch so it could be run from the batteries without any charging taking place.

The lever makes and breaks several sets of contacts to do this. Once the engine fires and speeds up, the flow of electricity is reversed through the circuit and the larger of the two coils. When running and the lever is lowered, the upper lever(or flap) is held up in the charging position by the coils above it and the current flowing through them, holding contacts in place. As the start lever is lowered other contacts return to the charging configuration. The electromagnet has two windings, a large gauge winding and a small gauge winding. When I rebuilt mine I had to rewind the inner (small gauge) coil as the wire had burnt out at some point. When I rebuilt it I could not get it to hold in position, then I realised that I did not know which way the coil was originally connected to t! he terminals. I reversed the wires and it held in place. (They must have to work in unison). Through the charging circuit there is a circuit for the ignition coil which stops the engine if the upper lever drops though lack of charging current. This could be why yours stops when you let go of the levers. The set was designed to run at full charge i.e. always giving (almost full) power for lighting and/or charging batteries. If the engine speed, hence charge rate dropped, the levers dropped and all stopped. The only governing on the engine was the load and the fixed jet size in the mixer. According to the manual engine speed would be about 1200rpm. I no longer have the wiring diagrams as I sold the set last year. But I should see the owner in next week at a show so I'll ask him for a photcopy of the wiring and send it to you. It may be quicker to try "Delco Don" on Smokstak's Sparks and Arcs. I have dug out two pics showing the two sides of the start control levers and the coil feed terminals. As the lever is raised contacts are broken and others made. You really need a wiring diagram to follow it through. The outer coil terminals:- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2061806560104310933EEoFPO The two square inner coil terminals top left :- http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2083897180104310933oMqRzD As the original ignition coil had burnt out I rewired a car coil,(a Delco by co-incidence), and used a knife switch so it could be run from the batteries without any charging taking place. The contactor arms are slightly bent in places and they act as springs against the action of the lever. As for phone number, well, I live on a little island just off your west coast .......called England. Hope this helps you out. Let me know how you get on. Regards, Dave. > Ok Dave, the felt did the trick. Will now put a c-clip in to retain it better. Engine getting fuel now. Also having a problem with the starter switch not holding.

I was very worried that those naughty Yankee buggers would corrupt him, him being so innocent and all !!! Your reply has just explained a recurring nightmare I've had for the last few days. A big truck is approaching me at speed and I cannot get out of the way - All I remember is the letters signwritten on the truck "RHFT". I've tried everything but they did not make sense until now!! "Reg, Harbour Freight Tits" !! No need to contact Dave - I can explain it all. He must have ordered a gift for you from "Harbour Freight" and the silly "Tits" messed up the order and he did not get it in time to take back to you. It's now so clear - no wonder he's having nightmares about it :-) Treat him with tenderness and love, shame, the poor guy will probably take some time to recover from the disappointment. No wonder he's been doing all those chores about the place - he's obviously "trying to forget".

In an effort to keep you informed, the definitions are listed below: GUTS - Is arriving home late after a night out with the boys, being met by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask: ''Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?'' BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the boys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the arse and having the balls to say: ''You're next, fatty.''

The front engine is stuck, most likely from water in one or more cylinders. One head is missing and the cylinder wall is a bit rusty so this may be the one that is stuck. The rear engine does run, however the no. 2 connecting rod bearing disintegrated and apparently the engine was kept in service for a while longer probably until the knock became too much to listen to. The crankpin is now of course galled. I have not yet taken a mic to it to find out how much metal was lost. Actually only one liner was still somewhat intact, the other one was in the bottom of the pan in a million pieces. I need to be able to move this locomotive under its own power to get it out of where it is at and into a new location for rebuilding, probably two miles total. So I am now thinking if there is a way that I can run the engine on five cylinders for long enough to get it where it needs to go. Some of the issues with doing this would be whether it would be better to try to clean up the journal as much as possible, put in a new liner, disconnect the injector and engage the compression release on that cylinder, or to remove the connecting rod, tie the piston and rod out of the way and install a machined clamp that would provide some of the weight of the rod and seal off the oil hole. Anyone ever have to do something like this on a diesel engine? Would such a temporary repair work? For the uninitiated, the LI-600 is a six cylinder inline engine, generating 250 HP at 1000 RPM. 7" bore, 10" stroke. Crankpin is 4.25" dia. First produced in 1929, this engine was built in 1944.

If it was me with this problem and you didn't have access to anything that could pull or push this loco two miles down the track; I think I'd do a modified Plan A. Pull the head and pull that piston & rod. Then go for it. Other wise, Plan B.

Message-ID: <20100921.180816.1000.382749@mailpop07.vgs.untd.com> Hi again Dave. This is a spray rig at Cal Poly Pomona. Originally used by Kellogg himself. Our club (WAPA) is volunteering to restore the rig with Novo engine and triplex pump to working condition. It will probably be pulled around behind an old tractor spraying water, during special events.

Jim K ________________________________ From: sel-bounces at lists.stationary-engine.com on behalf of Rick Rowlands Sent: Tue 9/21/2010 1:22 PM To: The SEL email discussion list Subject: [SEL] Cummins Engine Problem I had a chance to perform a detailed inspection of the Cummins LI-600 diesel engines on our GE 80 ton locomotive. The front engine is stuck, most likely from water in one or more cylinders. One head is missing and the cylinder wall is a bit rusty so this may be the one that is stuck. The rear engine does run, however the no. 2 connecting rod bearing disintegrated and apparently the engine was kept in service for a while longer probably until the knock became too much to listen to. The crankpin is now of course galled. I have not yet taken a mic to it to find out how much metal was lost. Actually only one liner was still somewhat intact, the other one was in the bottom of the pan in a million pieces. I need to be able to move this locomotive under its own power to get it out of where it is at and into a new location for rebuilding, probably two miles total. So I am now thinking if there is a way that I can run the engine on five cylinders for long enough to get it where it needs to go. Some of the issues with doing this would be whether it would be better to try to clean up the journal as much as possible, put in a new liner, disconnect the injector and engage the compression release on that cylinder, or to remove the connecting rod, tie the piston and rod out of the way and install a machined clamp that would provide some of the weight of the rod and seal off the oil hole. Anyone ever have to do something like this on a diesel engine? Would such a temporary repair work? For the uninitiated, the LI-600 is a six cylinder inline engine, generating 250 HP at 1000 RPM. 7" bore, 10" stroke. Crankpin is 4.25" dia. First produced in 1929, this engine was built in 1944.

Just an idea, Ron... if the tank is in good shape, you could take a sample from the interior and drop it off at the chem lab for analysis. It would probably make those students feel all warm and fuzzy to do something of immediate consequence.

Where can I get a replacement drain hose for my Maytag washer? It is the square aluminum tub with water pump. I have replaced another on an earlier washer without the pump. Got a very heavy hose from Hose Man, it fit but was too stiff and is difficult to keep in the fittings. Would like to find a real replacement, remember seeing one on Ebay years ago but didn't need it then. Thanks.

To keep the oil hole closed the easiest way would be a simple clamp like a muffler clamp with a chunk of strap over the oil hole. Run it just above idle and it should be fine.

Mine is a F.E. Meyers spray rig with a Stover engine like the one on Ebay. The wood is Cypress. I restored mine and bought?Cypress wood?from out of Florida and replaced the top and maybe a couple of boards on the bottom as I remember. ?Jim and Janna Yost Utica, Ohio USA jnyost at yahoo.com ________________________________ From: "rdhaskell at juno.com" To: sel at lists.stationary-engine.com; stationary-engine at oldengine.org Sent: Tue, September 21, 2010 2:51:21 PM Subject: [SEL] Wooden spray tank repair. Hi all. Anyone on the list ever replaced the wood on an old tank for a spray rig? This one is about 4' long, 3' wide and 3' deep.? Round on the bottom and held together with metal rods.? My question is about the long boards? on the sides, the remaining boards are not tongue and groove they just butt together and rely on the wood swelling up.? These boards have a slight curve across their width, were them made that way or over the years of being wet and clamped in place did they curve? A lot of the original wood is there but saturated with arsenic and now hazardous material and cannot be used. Thanks for any suggestions.

There is a medical distinction. We've all heard about people having guts or balls, but do you really know the difference between them? In an effort to keep you informed, the definitions are listed below: GUTS - Is arriving home late after a night out with the boys, being met by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask: ''Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?'' BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the boys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the arse and having the balls to say: ''You're next, fatty.''
