Cold STARTUP Diesel BUS ENGINES Smoke and Loud Sound 

Yeah eventually they will have to replace the starters on some buses depending on the battery power. It takes to operate the starter.

Not a bus but ive seen my RV start, its a decently old diesel, no computer control, nothing really modern in it, a big, loud, smokey engine

Our buses start normally and don't have to crank for so long! Even at temperatures below -10°C!

The smell of a good old diesel. Love it

Eski dizel motor olacak ama sabah soguk dizel kokusu harika

Oh me too. I would love to sit there cranking and pumping it too

Absolutely right but there’s some people who just won’t listen to people who know what their doing,their full of SHIT. 👍👍👍

Keep well oiled ;) (Nobody does any more ! Dynamos used to have a hole in the end of them to squirt oil in from time to time but who did ?

I think he had his whole leg stuffed in it!

True for pretty much all engines

Provost. You couldn’t be more Wrong about that starting procedure,when starting these cold diesels keep stopping the starter when the engine is trying to fire up is crazy,all the time the starter is operating the engine is building up enough heat for it to fire up,short bursts on the starter achieves Nothing but loss of heat plus it takes more energy to get the engine turning over again,I have been a diesel fitter for over 50years starting engines in all conditions,most of the time drivers WONT use the starting aids that the manufacturers fit for cold start situations. Swedish trucks and buses are fitted with proper cold start facilities that heat the inlet manifold so that the fuel can ignite properly and start up without all this smoke nonsense saving both the planet and starter motors,excess fuel devices also help when drivers can be bothered to use them.

@Sheepdog_81 You’re having a laugh,I have been working on Diesel engines for over 50years,your talking out of your ARSE like a lot of of these so called mechanics that like to think they know it all,and I have run Diesel engine cars since they appeared here in the UK in 1984. All that smoke is unburnt fuel because the engine isn’t warm enough to burn it properly and the colder the weather the worse the problem is so don’t insult my intelligence by saying that I don’t know what I’m talking about. Gardner Diesels which were the most reliable engine ever built were one of the worst engines to get running in cold weather because all these EXPERTS like yourself didn’t know there was an excess fuel device fitted to the fuel pump so they could be started easily and if that failed you had to resort to putting a flame down the inlet manifold,and I don’t know what I’m talking about your full of it, Pillock.

@@davidellis279 "And you have clearly demostrated that you have no clue or idea"....about RU-vid comments. Sheepdog was replying to the OP like you did !

@@davidellis279 "Provost. You couldn’t be more Wrong about that starting procedure......." (For clarity as to which of your comments this is a response to !) David, for a moment, just enjoy this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yPzubVpLYAc.html And the OP is Prevost, not Provost ! I'm glad the follow-up comments all clearly disagree with the OP - as do I Drivers not using starting aids - ABSOLUTELY ! I used to work for a builder who owned a garage - car maintenance & selling petrol. We didn't work on many cars, most of our time was repairing builders' equipment ! We'd get a phone call from the boss - "the tractor won't start" they used a farm tractor & trailer to move builders' rubbish. I'd go to the tractor - now with a flat battery and even with a flat battery, it'd start first time for me. It had a Thermostart fitted and as a starting aid, it's the most impressive variety I know of. Somewhere in the 1970s the new style of injector pumps came out where use of the accelerator pedal turned off the excess fuel feature. An idiotic design since previously the recommended technique was flat out with the pedal - which made starting take forever.

That made me chuckle!

Euro 0 more likely......

It is odd because detroits were painted green

I think the red Detroit were built at another plant... Think about how like caterpillars used to be white in Peterbilt

There's no G in Cummins
