The engine that powered a nation.. The legendary Holden "grey motor"!
Well over a million of these buggers were produced, and gave solid service for decades. This one's been around a few times - note the reconditioning company's sticker on the rocker-cover...
The engine bay in this car is so clean becuase it's never housed a Gas engine. At the moment, we're without a motor too due to the motor dying :(
My 2nd new custom Fire engine. I wanted to try a different style. 6 wide front with 7 wide back. Dual rear wheels on each side. All compartments are filled with appropiate tools and accessories. There is a stretcher in the middle. The design purpose of this vehicle is for urban Search & Rescue, MVA response, and HAZMAT.
Oklahoma City Fire Department Engine 17 came out, this brought out half the neighborhood to see what was going on. I am thinking, where are their hoses? or their dalmatian
All aluminium has been degreased and acid-cleaned and left bare. The sump was repainted in black engine enamel. The cast iron block is in silver engine enamel. The cam cover has had unnecessary lugs, casting marks and an outlet removed before being etch-primed and coated in black wrinkle-finish paint. The TOYOTA casting was picked-out by rubbing-back to bare aluminium.

Got up the other day and realized it's time to rip apart the voyager and find out why it smokes.
It's the rings! :,-(
HOW TO FIX PISTON RINGS:
Step 1.
Rip the engine apart.
Note: While performing step one, be sure to remember where all the stuff goes so you can put it all back.
Step 2.
Sit down, have a beer and admire the nice mess you have made in your yard.
CHESAPEAKE, Va. -- Contractor Ty Lyttle gets help from Jesse Lynn Tullis and Sam Brown, contractors from Advanced Integrated Technology, to position a twin engine on blocks aboard the Corps’ Derek dredge Elizabeth. On October 9, 2012, the Elizabeth’s “green” transformation began with the installation of two new fuel-efficient and EPA-compliant Iveco marine propulsion diesel engines. Add to that new twin diesel generators, housed in sound-barrier boxes that significantly reduce noise pollution and exhaust emissions. The eco-friendly engines were purchased under a separate contract at a total cost of $100,000. MJL Enterprises, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran small business, based in Norfolk, Va., was contracted to install the engines and generators at a cost of $115,000. The Elizabeth patrols federal navigable waterways of Hampton Roads, performing a wide variety of maritime missions, among them the removal of surface and underwater obstructions that would impede navigation.

The San Francisco Fire Department lost two of its members from Engine Company 26, who were both critically injured during an explosion while bravely fighting a house fire in the Diamond Heights neighborhood on June 2, 2011. Both died at the hospital as a result of their injuries after all rescussitative measures were taken by the Emergency Trauma staff at San Francisco General Hospital.
Days later firefighters from around California and around the country gathered to pay their respects during a funeral service. In this sequence we see some of the equipment from the North Bay Area and points further north.
Corte Madera Engine 13 is built on a Pierce Dash chassis.
San Jose fire firefighters responded to a report of smoke in the area of Hellyer County Park. Arriving fire fighters found a wind driven grass fire moving erraticly as the strong winds circled the area.
A TIER 2 response ensued with multiple wildland units, fire engines and water tenders on scene to contain the blaze. A couple of houses lost fences in the blaze, but damage was really kept to a minimmum.
In service for only a couple of days at the time of this incident, Engine 26 was the recipent of one of San Jose's brand new Hi-Tech built pumpers. I am including the specifications for the engine below for those who are interested.

Crazy olden times "Hit and miss" engine:
Gray Marine Engine were built by Gray Marine Motor Company of Detroit, Michigan.
I'm not sure if this Gray Marine engine, let alone any V8 engine, was ever offered in a Divco. According to the Divco Club of America the Continental 4- and 6-cylinder and Hercules 6-cylinder engines were standard in the 1950s, while in the 1960s 6-cylinder ohv Nash engines were used in addition, as well as the option for a Detroit-Diesel 3-53N 3-cylinder 2-stroke diesel.
