He ran it for maybe a minute and fifteen seconds… No harm done.

Leave it on till it has some time to warm up (Couple minutes) and it may damage the head gasket.

Diesels are built a little stronger because of the way they work. A lot of the metal parts are thicker, so they absorb more heat and take a little longer to warm up.

bad thing that here in italy if you put diesel engine in a car made for gas engine you must pay a big fine! But a little question, can be done in any car? (like in an old 97 Renault Clio)

I saw some guys from the 149th Armor pull out the Detroit Diesel from a Bradley Fighting Vehicle once and start it in midair, hanging from the end of a crane, Pretty cool.

PuppetMasterII November 25, 2009 at 6:20 AM

COOL

(sigh) Wish people would read the comments before they ask questions. Poor Dave said he put the motor in his mini van & he put a turbo on it. There maybe that will help for a little while. ^_^ It’s a wonder Dave doesn’t have carpel tunnel from typing repeat answers to all the questions asked 5 or 6 times on the same video. Not trying to be mean just saying read first then ask. You may find your answers without typing a word. ^_^

i just discovered this video by starting at the last video page, page number 51 right now and # videos at 1016.

I like this one. swinging diesel lol. it sounds like a great engine. I am guess that this might be the one that went into a minivan.

BlakeMason2 November 25, 2009 at 7:58 AM

Vrooom! Too bad this one is turboless.
