Military Veterans Museum and Education Volunteers, along with Slava, a Russian immigrant, get the T-34-85 running again after having sat for almost 20 years.
The T-34-85 is powered by a V-2-34 diesel engine. It is a 12 cylinder, 38.8L, four-stroke, liquid-cooled engine that develops 373 kW (500 horsepower) at 1,800 RPM and 222 kg-m of torque at 1,100 - 1,200 RPM. The engine is governed at 2,100 RPM and weighs 900kg.
These damn engines watched a german cold weather starting instructional movie reel. It started with various German armoured vehicles like the panther. It required a steel sphere like object be removed from the oil pan area be heated for up to an hour and then replaced into the vehicle for several hours to heat the oil. The last few minutes of the movie focused on how to start their captured t34 tanks. Step one dig out the oil pan at rear of tank step 2 find and place firewood here. Step 3 light and wait 10-20 minutes and start it.
Nice the engine running good. no smoke. I know perfectly T-34 and Sau-100 the engine is the same. I was in military service 3 fucking year in Cuba driving this antiques machines. Also T-55
That tanks a beauty fellows, I know you don't know me from Adam, but one look tells me a lot of people put their blood and sweat into bringing Ivan's touring vehicle back to life! I appreciate all the people who work hard to keep these pieces of history alive, so thanks for all your hard work restoring it! My dad does similar work, with CAF planes, a zero, bearcat, several B-25 mitchells and even, for some reason, a working M-113 APC. and all the aircraft fly. I prefer tanks myself. From the looks of things you guys have a month of sundays each restoring that baby and what a wonderful piece of history it is! Maybe someday i will get to see it, do you have any more videos at least?
+LeprousSoul While I'd bet this tank went through more than a little work to get running in such good shape, it is indeed possible to get them fired up on bare-bones tools and mechanical knowledge, though the engine will pay for it in the long run. But you are entirely correct on your second point- the Soviets built them as durable as they come.
Yes, the Soviets were super lucky to have the Americans do most of the design work on the tank and factory before WWII. Its lucky that the soviets helped Germany develop its forces and start WWII or we'd never know how good of a tank this was.
@@dave4882 -the primary designers of the T34 were all Russian not American - ironically Germany blocking Ukraine's 2008 bid for NATO membership has also assisted Putin in his plans to invade Ukraine started with Crimea invasion 2014
Let's say it, due to the way each cycle works EGTs are much lower with Diesel than with Otto (higher EGTs, as with turbine engines->higher NOxes), after all diesels are much easier to put a turbocharger on so they swallow a LOT of air and so exhaust is much cooler than a gasoline engine with the same performance.
Victor Zhegloff Here is the address. 4300 Poberezny Rd, Oshkosh, WI 54902 (920) 426-8615 Must be on the same road as the Experimental Aircraft Association. The EAA has a great aviation museum.
почему, если у вас в руках оказывается военная советская техника вы всегда в восторге от нее ? но если эту технику эксплуатируют в России например ,много негатива от вас западников?
Vincent Sluga diesel is much better for any military vehicle because it will burn anything even gasoline and kerosene. the t34 was a tank of mass production its the only way the Russians could fight the Germans heck some did not even have paint on them coming out of the factory's just went straight into battle. what more would you want its simple reliable and its easy to maintain
camerl2009 Don't forget, Petrol engines in tanks like to set fire for no reason, and always set fire when shot. The chance of a diesel engine bursting into flames is far less.
para que arranque más fácil instalar una bomba de prel lubricación de aceite .y una bomba en línea combustible para mantener presión constante de combustible .y calentados de línea enfriamiento agua a 60 grados .y tiene que arrancar .sistema arranque para motores Caterpillar grandes.
