Make sure to also have a healthy supply of fogging oil... For men in stock.Swervin_Mervin wrote: Thu Oct 07, 2021 5:34 pmIndeed. And that's the danger. I have no time, no lift, a reasonable amount of tools (thanks to my history of Frenchies) but nothing like what he's been gifted and thankfully very little fear.Beany wrote: Thu Oct 07, 2021 5:31 pmYeah, he makes a lot of the stuff look really straightforward - which to a certain extent, it is - if you have a lift, a decent toolkit, a second car and no fearSwervin_Mervin wrote: Thu Oct 07, 2021 4:25 pm
Yeah I really like the guy's vids. So much so it's given me an unhealthy dose of want for an E31 850i.
I'm up to date with his most recent projects so have now gone back to the start to the early ones he did. Interesting seeing the development of his style.
I like his carbon fibre cloths and other little idioms too.
Watching him change the PAS feed pipe on Project Dubai only yesterday has me thinking "piece of piss" if mine turns out to be the same issue. I am under no illusions it would be far less of a piece of piss than he makes it look.
I've been watching his stuff almost from the beginning (a lucky YouTube algorithm recommendation), and it is always enjoyable.

I’ve seen a couple of these now. Not much that can’t be done with a few bodies, spanners, and the odd BFH or two.

A very satisfying video.
It did get me thinking though -
Spoiler
the number of times you see vids where the engine is declared as dead or needing a rebuild, and yet I wonder if they really do...

Engines will usually start and run after a quick service and fluid change. If it's been sitting for a while it's worth giving it a more thorough going over though as gaskets and hoses will likely have dried out and split.
The only thing that'll really kill an engine dead is running without oil or overheating to the point that something in the block seizes

I know that’s not the final production version, but it still doesn’t look very pretty….

Those Rufford ford videos are strangely addictive. It's not a million miles from here, I might make the Panda famous

Agreed. I guess we only see a subset of those who go through, but it does astound me how many are happy to “have a go” when they clearly have no idea of the do’s and don’ts associated with deep water.John wrote: Mon Oct 18, 2021 9:22 am Those Rufford ford videos are strangely addictive.

The Mustang making it through OK despite the water being quite deep, followed by the Terrano getting into trouble, was hilarious.mik wrote: Mon Oct 18, 2021 9:43 amAgreed.

Probably has some ancient Ford standard design specs to thank for that (along with going through it fairly sensibly).Jobbo wrote: Fri Oct 22, 2021 10:08 am The Mustang making it through OK despite the water being quite deep, followed by the Terrano getting into trouble, was hilarious.
