106yr old Kerosene Engine, NGC

This vid is pretty awesome!!! I just love listening to the sound of this thing. It is just mesmerizing to me. Farm or Industrial power I'm thinking?
Pretty cool either way in my opinion!

Being impatient as I can be at times I jumped ahead in the video. I thought he was turning it over to start due to the slow speed. After a bit I though he must be getting tired of cranking until I realized it was actually running at maximum revs and no load.

What a different era it was.
