Worked for a Jeep dealer in Tulare, CA in the mid 1970s. They bought an entire truckload of used surplus 4 cylinder Jeep engines. We rebuilt a few dozen of these engines using surplus WW2 parts. It took longer to clean the cosmoline preservative off some of those parts than it was worth. We would test run the rebuilt engines on the bench while they were sitting on the oil pan. Those engines were used in all sorts of agricultural equipment as well as all early Jeeps.

@@billvandorn5332 My dad was a jet engine mechanic in the Navy 1954 -1959. And my dad was a character. When in Port, my dad liked coming home on the weekend. The easiest way to come home was to steal a plane off the repair line. The easiest way to get a plane off the repair line was to fix it when no one was looking. There was a certain cargo plane with a blown up radial engine that no one would miss that needed a piston, rod and jug. His buddy got on the phone, called a base that had one. Said he was a General and he wanted it right now. It was taken out of inventory, put on a jet fighter, flown at great expense to the government. When it got there, priority one, it took my dad two hours to put it back together. They filled a flight plan, fueled the plane with enough fuel to go from Pensacola Florida to Pittsburgh PA and took off. The Pratt and Whitney engine shook, the Push Rods shook loose for the valves, it developed a leak, they had to turn around and come back. The plane had to dump all the fuel before it could land. There was my dad's 50 Chevy sitting at the end of the runway with a empty tank. My dad forgot to safely wire the bolts on the engine and it shook loose. When it came time for promotion he didn't get one because of one stupid mistake. When it came time to re-up he quit because he was working beyond his pay grade and there was no slots available for his job at what would be a E-5 in the other branches of the military. One mistake that cost him his whole career in the military.

The bypass filter...some of the oil was pumped into the canister filter...all the oil went through the pump unfiltered. One bypass filter which used a roll of toilet paper as the filter medium was the Franz filter...sometimes used as a supplementary filter to the OEM full flow engine filter. Most OEM used the "normal" cartridge filters we know and love today....before the spin on filter.....

Jim, as a truck owner operator in so cal in the early 80's I ran distilled water and Nalcool, no anti freeze in my small cam Cummins. Pops taught me that way as we only ran over to Phoenix or Tucson or north to the bay area or Sacramento for GI Trucking at that time. Early in my career I remember one trip between Phoenix and Tucson it snowed a bit. The trucks grill had collected some slush and I remember worrying about a tube freezing in the radiator core and splitting. By the time I got down to Tucson it was sun up and all was good. Nalcool was oxblood red and would leave a telltale red stain if there was a coolant leak anywhere. It's main purpose was to lessen the pitting of the wet side of the cylinder liners from cavitation and inhibit corrosion. Nalcool was basically equal to what Cummins sold as DCA at that time. Distilled water and Nalcool did great in my experience with my second truck a 1986 IH 9670 Eagle with an NTCC 400 big cam Cummins. We ordered that truck with optional large radiator, a Modine beta weld. I could remove the radiator cap and see clean bare copper and clean silver solder inside the filler neck just like when it was brand new, even 10 years and 1 million, 30 thousand miles later! That truck came with a small spin on coolant filter for which I remember buying Nalcool branded filters that had a dose of cooling system treatment inside them. In 1992 I moved to Reno Nevada and quickly had to find low silicate anti freeze to add in the coolant mix now that i would be running over Donner Pass everyday. Had to buy and install a plug in block heater and an ether inject starting aid for that Cummins. Things we never thought about when living in the banana belt.

I live in Australia, born in 1953. When I was in high school one of my friend's father had a GM Holden (Australian designed and built car) It had about 120,000 on the clock. The new detergent oils came out and the dad agreed to have it put in his engine. It worked really well and removed all the gunge and muck from the rings. Needless to say, the engine was clean but removing all the carbon meant it now used more oil than petrol. As Jim said 100,000 miles was the life of these engines.

When I went to work for the Subaru dealership in 79 I was very impressed with the number of miles people getting on those engines. We had a couple of surveyors that had the Subaru Brat and they had over 300,000 miles apiece on them and that almost blew my mind.

Engines in the 1950’s were designed for non detergent oil. Contaminants in the engine oil would fall out f suspension and collect in the oil pan, top of head, etc. carbureted engines often ran rich generating deposits. Removing sludge from engines regularly was expected. Detergent oils came out in 1960’s. Detergents keep contaminates in suspension. When oil is changed the contaminates are removed. Some people used non detergent oil and sludge developed. I remember my dad cleaning sludge out of the engine in our AMC station wagon. I think he ran non detergent oil because he did not trust the new oil. Or to save money.

I have been an engine re-builder and sports car high performance modified engine supplier in my past life(retired). I use generally diesel engine oil after break-in of a rebuilt engine where for Gasoline engines I used SI-5W30 for the first 1,000 miles running and then service with SI-CI 30W50 as the ambient temperature is above freezing and to 40degC. When all the new fangled oils with additives became prevalent, 1970s/80s, and servicing Ford XD/XE era on-wards, it became common for the additives to accumulate in the bottom of the sump so deep that oil would not drain without using a screwdriver to dig a hole to release the oil. We were removing sumps in so many vehicles that servicing was always over budgeted values. The sludge additives, as sent for analysis, showed that they were not being maintained in suspension in the nominal base oil. This was the main reason I used the compression ignition oils for most of my gasoline engine servicing. The sump was mostly just a carbon grime in the sump as the compression ignition oil detergents washed the internals of the engine. Later specifications were for both spark ignition & compression ignition in the 1980s onwards. Porche and another sports car manufacturer took Shell on over the rapid deterioration of the engines due to oils not maintaining the lubrication as claimed. Just a bit of background on oils as I was taught in the Air Force and also by a mate who was a Chemical engineer for the Shell company back in the 1970s/80s. Ozzie Follower

I wonder if this engine was the one from my friend A.L. Podva's truck? It was green, muddy, probably a little rusty, and always had a bed full of hay and barb wire fence stuff. He owned a ranch in the hills of Danville, CA and drove that truck around in the hills and on the streets of the town for decades. I was a runner and would chase his cattle off the streets back up into the hills and he would come by and fix the fence. Sometimes I would help him with the fence too. He was a super nice old guy and brought me a Christmas gift for years. He always had a smile and dried Copenhagen on his lips. I follow this channel - what a coincidence if it is his truck! 😊

Early engines used oils that had no detergent additives to keep contaminants in suspension. It was entirely intentional in the design that the contaminants would settle in the sump as sludge and stay there. The float for the oil pick up was so the oil was drawn off near the surface not down at the bottom where all the sludge collects. Detergent additives began to be added to oils once engines began to be fitted with oil filters. Today, small engine lubrication still works in this way and it is the main reason manufacturers specify special small engine oils for them that don't have detergent additives

The neoprene seal was not correct for the engine, was gobbed up with silicone and leaked like a sieve. We also cleaned out the oil pick- up , which was choked with crud. We stripped and cleaned all the oil gallys ( there you go Jim ) and cleaned the lower block. put the main bearing caps on the right way around cleaned the crankcase . we inspected all the bearings and used assembly grease and reassembled, and re installed the unit into the car , she started and runs very nicely .

I love watching you work Sir! A close friend invited me to wrench on his '51 f-head last spring but we only went as far as cleaning up valve seats before she ran again. I always wondered what the rest of the internals looked like and now I know. A great project, thanks!

My dad has a block of wood painted black with numbers on it that was made just for keeping the old valves in order when you disassembled it so you could put them back in the same hole in the block and heads.

Jim, I use a large drill chuck to pull pins with. Just put it on, tighten it down, and a light twist and pull is all you need, no more fighting it with pliers. You could even put a handle in it.

There is a small hole in the side of the filter housing center tube that must be cleaned out or oil will not flow through the filter to the timing set. Also this is a partial oil filtering system. not all oil is filtered. You can increase the oil pressure to the #1 main bearing by welding the hole shut on hex oil tube that sprays onto the timing gear set and re-drill it to .040" .

50:05 Oil galley. Thats what we called it. In chev 283, ford 289 etc. Must have come out of a Chilton manual in a past life. This Jeep engine is a bunch of fun to watch. Thanks guys.

This is going to be an interesting project to watch. And it's going be fun to see how well it goes For you when you are done with it? I am just glad that it's you that is doing this one and not me. There just seems to be a lot more to these engines than engines of today's technology.

You’ve got my head spinning with the floating oil pickup. A necessity with older non-detergent oils, but not any more. I went through the motions of cleaning out the sludge in the oil pan of a continental 226, and now I wish I would’ve welded or pinned that oil pickup to eliminate the floatation. Might be going back!

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.

Thanks, truly entertaining. I used to work on some of my older stuff. I bought a 90 Chev and when I opened the hood all I saw was a big flat expanse of engine cover. Closed the hood and said goodbye to my days of vehicles I could work on. Auggy , a white dog in a shop. Seldom would work in an older garage.

People in Texas to this day run fairly new vehicles with plain water in the cooling system. They are actually surprised when freeze plugs pop out when the temps drop to 22 degrees.

Freeze plugs are a misnomer. They're not meant to pop out in freezing weather, and often dont. Im a scrapper, and I couldn't count all the freeze cracked blocks Ive seen. Those plugs just fill the holes meant for removing casting sand from the water jackets at the foundry!

I wear gloves daily in my job. Changing to a clean set of gloves happens a lot and the sweat on your hands makes it difficult to slip the replacement gloves on. Wearing two sets of gloves allows for easy replacement of the outer pair. 👍🏽

I am a retired mechanic and I collect old factory workshop manuals as well as the industry manuals that suppliers to the industry used to put out for workshops and up until the 1960's it was a common practice to do a head de-coke that involved cleaning all the carbon out of the exhaust and inlet ports, combustion chamber and all the build up on the valves. More times than not the valves were just hand lapped if they were not to bad as valves cost quite a bit back then. In-chassis rebuilds were also common as heads and sumps could usually come off with the engine in place. Rebuild was an optimistic term as only the rings and big end bearings were generally replaced as well as the head looked at or in the case of side valve engines they would be pulled out and cleaned. With dirty fuel, rubbish oil, and no filtration engines filled up with gunk very quickly. Interesting to note that the first Land Rover 4x4's made after WW2 also had a four cylinder F head engine made by the Rover company. When you see these engines you can appreciate just how far we have come and the manufacturing lessons learned from WW2 along with metal alloy technology that spawned the great engines of the 60's and later.

I love this channel and it brinks back memories of my auto-shop days in high school learning from Mr V about the good old days of racing and automotive. You have an awesome memory and your customers are lucky to have you working on these rare old engines. I'm so happy to see your son following in your footsteps and keep the tradition of quality machinist alive and well. I was wondering about that one tooth off on the crank/cam gears and wonder if that was the cause of the overheating and bearing damage? I can't believe just one cam bearing and the rest metal to metal.......WOW. Thanks so much for all your videos and the trips down memory lane.

My first engine rebuild was an F head out of my uncle's jeep panel truck. It was the delivery vehicle for his dry cleaning business, so got a lot of stop and go driving. It was 1959, and I had just graduated from High School. Used a Motors manual from the public library to help me get through the job. The truck was still going strong when I returned after a four year hitch in the USAF. Thanks for the memories.

I really enjoy this channel. Very educational and the people in it are all great, just the type you would like to have as neighbors. About old car engines, I inherited my grandparents all original 48 Ford Super Deluxe. It had about a half inch of old oily sludge in the oil pan we removed. Fortunately, my grandfather had a canister type oil filter on the engine so that probably helped save the engine. The engine didnt need rebuilding, just some maintenance at 57,000 original miles. Engine is very quiet and runs as well as you would ever expect from a vintage Ford flathead. Great channel.

Absolutely fascinating as ever! This prior generation of engines were so much more... accessible to humans. Modern machines no doubt make sense to other machines but these were built by hand, or at least hand tools and some amount of handicraft. Beautiful work in its own way.

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.

Galley is a ship’s kitchen. Parallel grooves in cylinder look like what happens when a piston breaks. It has those buttonhole skirts, so one may have broken in the past.
