My Model N Collection all running at the same time.

Recommended Posts

 This is something I've been wanting to do for awhile, and I finally did it yesterday. I pulled out all my old Briggs Model N's, as well as a Model U, Model I, and a 6s, and ran ran them all at the same time (22 engines). It was fun, although it was a bit more work than I thought it was going to be. When this many engines are running, its difficult to hear the exhaust note of each engine so that I could get the fuel mixture set correctly on the carburetor. In this video, the newest engine is a 1952, and the oldest is a 1940. There was one engine (my lever start) that I flooded, so it wasn't running in the first video, but I did eventually get it fired, and showed it running in the very short second video. Anyway, here are a couple videos and pics. Thanks

OMG, how long did it take to get that lot out , and put them all away again.

An impressive show Matt

 

 I wasn't going to talk about that, but I can tell you I won't be doing this again anytime soon.  :D  It was alot of work, and I'm not as young as I used to be, but it was fun. Thanks for the kind words.

Hiya Daniel .

Dad has some wonderful engines , I would be proud to just own one of those.

Thanx for the commentary & history of the engines , really interesting.

 I told Danny you said hi Neil. He thought that was pretty cool. I love all 4 of my kids the same, but its really nice to have one of them thats interested in this kind of stuff. If I'm wrenching on something here at the house, you can bet Danny is with me helping. I can tell you, it doesn't get any better than that folks!  :)
