Starting my 1942 WITTE KD DIESELECTRIC PLANT after sitting 10 years at the previous owners home in AZ. And a couple hours cleaning the fuel system and assisting the very first start with heat, due to carbon on the valves leaking some compression from both the intake and exhaust. Sorry for blocking the camera some, I was excited to be up close while running it, and I'm not quite sure about the governor yet as it seems to shake before it can regulate the speed, when I get a radiator and fuel tank setup ill spend some more time looking into it. ;) (I'm using a 5hp electric motor In the video but starts easily now with a hand crank)
