Tearing Down A NEGLECTED Willys Hurricane Engine...

Thanks for the video I enjoyed. The explanation. You stayed right with each step. The dog did not interfere with you working. Camera man was great. I want to take apart a 4 cylinder 1951 Minneapolis Moline. Your video gives great information. I was thinking of
Bits of information. 1951 gas was leaded gasoline. Regular and Ethlye. 30 SAE straight weight motor oil. Quaker state was a Paraphine base oil. It was ok in the south. But this oil was bad for Engines north of the Ohio River. In cold weather , It gummed up the engines with lead gas. I have tractor manuals showing a 68 Octaine gasoline being used. Rislone ,,in the yellow bottle is what I use on an engine ,, when 100,000 mile mark is passed. Trying to stop some wear on the internal engine.

The rods are offset and will rub the side like that if they are installed backwards.

No music please .

This popped into my feed, and a few minutes in, I'm subscribed. Jim definitely seems an easygoing guy, the kind where you want to pull up a chair and hear what stories he may have, and learn from his treasure trove of knowledge.

People ran prue water if the engine overheated in hot climates, people also used to remove the thermostats. Nothing wrong with the old bakalite gears, they were replaced at overhaul.

When I was a boy in the 1960s working in a service station we had two grades of oil: 30w detergent and 30w non-detergent. 😂😂😂

I would never use an impact wrench on an exaust manifold. I never liked removing broken studs.

Thank you for your knowledge and videos USA 🇺🇸 TRUMP

Absolutely love this tear down video. Excellent job in doing so and the back up camera man did awesome.

Thank you

Nick Panaritis had a new thermostat fail and kill an engine. Owner kept
driving it which didn't help. Not sure how he checks them before installation
but I imagine he does. Forget which video series it was??

If the Jeep was a kids learn to drive vehicle, prehaps the timing gears were intentionally set a tooth off to reduce the power of the engine? I know I've heard of pistons being removed and other modifications to old vehicles to reduce the power so kids could learn to drive in them in the old days.

I've seen some engines so worn out that the cylinders were .060 oversized and had never been re-bored. But having worked on one of those Willys F engines, it reminded me a lot of the old British cars, which literally have a nut for every bolt.

Good ole American iron

Love how everything is explained and the editor notes really impressed me. Great video, great channel. Subscribed.

Sooo where is the outcome????

Is there a way to get more than the 50ish hp out of these engines? I have a 51cj3 but have no idea which way to go about my power train restoration. There's not many roads left you can travel on when you max out at 45mph.

It's comforting to watch someone dressed seriously, without tattoos, beards, earrings. Thank you, GL

When will you finish the neglected Willys Hurricane engine?

I sure enjoyed the video. Great job. Glad there was no Music.

Worked one summer for a bean farmer. Got an old CJ2 from him. That flat head 4 had to be rebuilt. I remember how quiet the thing was at idle. At top speed of a whopping 40 mph, it sounded like it was coming apart. Drove that thing for a long time. Miss those days.

Why not trash the engine and swap LS

How can the “valves seal well and be worn “ at the same time???!

I'm as old as Augie doggie's doggie daddy, and I've always heard it "galley." Not gallery. That's a place where pictures hang.

Of course when I was in the Navy, we had to work as mess cooks in the galley, but when we went to the firing range, that was not the same as a shooting gallery.

A little less caffeine for the cameraman would be nice. He's making me seasick...

never seen a dowl in main. looks crazy but if it works.why not all them. no more spun bearings

I like how Beetle-Pimp popped in for a second.

More dog please, He's beautiful <3

Never tried it, I've just put the cage in for a couple of days and pulled the tab.

I was 5 years old when that engine was made ! 1947 !

Nice no timing chain to loosen.

I would drift punch them exhaust manifold hex bolts

My girlfriend 1967 Volvo P1800 4 cylinder had 420 K miles...motor never been apart

What up with that?

I always gave valve retainer a mallet rap...boom keepers loosen...

Here’s my thought, for what it’s worth. We’re looking at and analyzing the remains of this engine, with the analytics of an engine that was designed and built in 2000. This keep engine was designed and constructed during or right after WWII. It was never meant to be last until2024. It was a throw away vehicle. Let’s see if our new technology can save

Keep on kicking ass Dad!
Love it! Keep the new camera guy, he's good
All my best to that other cleaning guy.
Aloha

Generally the chunking of pieces of bearing material from the backing steel is due to bearing overload. Most often caused by lugging the engine.

Great engineering. Do you ever show the engines running in the vehicles?

I agree. As a 74 year old, please don't add music. Per the Webster Dictionary, a Gallery is a Covered Walkway, usually with Pillars supporting at least one side of the Covering as support. A Galley is referred to as a Narrow Eating Area or Kitchen on a Ship or Submarine. In the Automotive Industry the Cam Bearing Narrow Sequecial Jurnals are known as the Galley. Thank you, known as the "Janitor ". Have fun and take care. A Loyal fan.

My grandpa had a hurricane 6 in his yeep (jeep). It was silent when running 😊❤ miss you grandpa. 😢❤

Like the full videos.

A lot of heavy duty stuff for a 75 HP engine!
My (grampas) CJ-3B ran for 50 years on that old screamer before we swapped in a V6 odd fire.

"Galleys" are the holes that pass oil inside the block and "Galloways" are any extensions added for that purpose. The 51's had a recall for the wooden timing gears breaking so they recalled them and used a wooden fiber replacement. Your engine there may be one of those the factory rebuilt and exchanged. That would explain the Mains showing year 52 for a 51 perhaps.

The 51's had wooden timing gears but after getting wet with oil and soaking up after a while were swelling and would crack and break. Most dealerships simply replaced the gears however a very few were sent back to the factory and yours perhaps was one such rebuilt exchange motor. Lol I would also bet the factory screwed up that wristpin also.

Great video. Im sorting issues with my 1957 f134 in my jeep. I won't get squirrely enough to tear it down this far but I will definitely save this video

One tooth off.... story of my life...!

The man KNOWS his craft. A pleasure to watch.

Thinking about using one these engines as a emergency generator for the house, this is a very informative video!!

Oil galley is what we called them at the Chevrolet foundry and at the Chevrolet engine machining and assembly plants in the 60's. I have called them oil galleys since I started working on engines with my dad back in the late 40's and that is what he called them. He was a Packard Motor Car machinist. . So I think you are in good company.
I'm an old plant engineering supervisor at Chevy during the 50's, 60's and 70's.

Beautifully done!
