ha ha, the cyl's i did not have in the junk. those metal pieces i dug out of the grass where they were for a good 20 years.
 
Seeing all those cylinders, it got me to thinking; if you are building a log splitter, is it possible to use the large cylinder for the power, but then use the small diameter cylinder for the retract to speed up the cycle time?

If you want a fast retract speed, just get a cylinder with a very large piston rod relative to the piston diameter. That will decrease the area of the rod end, and require less volume of oil to retract the cylinder.
 
My father in law had a little Vega that had a v8 put in it. He was really proud of that car and he put a toilet paper filter on it from JC Whitney. Anyway, when we would go to visit, we would always have to go look at the oil on the dipstick. It always looked almost like new oil!
Maybe you could put on of those filters on that engine! Apparently the soot in the motor oil, doesn't cause much engine wear. All diesel have black oil!!!
