I bet he had a "sinking" feeling in his gut.

I got sent out on the loader one day to clean some of the sand out of a little wash on the discharge end of a culvert. Parked the the tractor on the concrete apron before I pulled on to the sand, got out there and stomped around to see if it was solid enough for the loader, seemed good. Got back in the saddle bucket set to start my project, bucket leaves the concrete, front tires leave the concrete, so far so good. I didn't get the rear tires 2 feet past the concrete when the entire tractor sank about 5' up to the very last step on the ladder . They had to get Fat Allis

to yank me out

This is

the type of Diesel engine I used to operate. Ours was a 10 cyl., 120rpm slow speed crosshead that turned a Siemens generator. Each cyl had a 200lb fuel injector. There were three 10,000 rpm BB turbochargers. It was the only engine that I ever worked on where you could crawl inside.

What was the size (MW) of the generator attached to it?

It's been since '96 and for the life of me I don't remember.

Pretty small compared to the low speed pipeline engines that pump nat. gas all over the country.
v 16 , and v 20`s are huge !

Well at 33,000 hp, it's the biggest engine that I ever changed rings, replaced cylinder liners, and replaced piston skirts and crowns on and we did it hundreds of times. Much bigger than that thing between fender wells and none of the tools fit in a cute tool box.

Agree, we went to Olathe Kansas once to work on a v-16 , I wouldnt get inside it , didnt trust anyone that had controls of the air powered engine roller .
