Diesel Engines 101. Class 1.

thanks man

Amazing, very patiently executed!

I took the rod out of my boss’ diesel, thanks Boy Scout hat guy, now I know how to put it back like I got it!

Thanks so much for this content! It's so easy to listen to, so I can multitask while watching. I have no interest in ever becoming a mechanic I'm just SICK of not understanding how cars work and I love to learn new things.

Thank u 🔧

I work for Caterpillar, everyone should take these classes that do not know about the product they work on.

Fifty-three year old female retired RN learning everything she can about her diesel engine. Thanks!

ABSOLUTE LEGEND!!! Three years after this man posts this I am referring to it to study up for the diesel class I'll be taking in the spring, summer, and next fall! This man is single handedly saving my life hahaaaa. Keep it up!

You ROCK!

As a petite 26 year old woman, I keep being told I can't do this. Fuck that. Finally decided to just do it, and ur videos help me out a lot man

Josh, how about a supplemental section on HP upgrades from 3rd parties to the diesel engine

I'm about to try to get into a tech school for this and hoping these videos give me an upper hand in learning more faster. Thank you for the time to explain things

You are Greatly Appreciated.

Thanks for this

When Rudolf Diesel was first testing his experimental engine, he used peanut oil as the fuel. There were exhibitions of the Diesel engine by the Otto company in 1900 that also featured the engine running on peanut oil. The refined fractionated portion of petroleum oil that would most closely resemble what we now refer to as "Diesel fuel," would have been Kerosene.
The Diesel engine did not come into widespread use until the 1930s, due to the fact that the injector technology had not been well developed for multi-cylinder engines. Bosch played a role in developing the fuel injector timing. The car maker Citroen helped bring the engine to market as well.
So, when we figuratively invented our "new" engine, it was highly improbable that Rudolph Diesel started using what is now known as "diesel fuel" as the fuel source, because the engine he invented took many years to become widely used and accepted, to where the fuel used in his engine would be associated with his name.
