Переглядів 5724 місяці тому
Here are some of our favorite cars that were on display at the Rat Rod Roundup in Glide, Oregon, for this year's Graffiti Weekend. See beautiful trucks, cars, and even a bicycle. We saw Cadillacs, Studebakers, Chevrolets, Fords, Hudsons, a Datsun, and many ground-up custom Rat Rods. From kustom kars to tuners, there was something there for you.
Moonswatch unboxing: Mars and Uranus
Переглядів 1595 місяців тому
Just got back from Switzerland, and in addition to chocolate and cheese, I got to enjoy their watches. Here, I unbox the two MoonSwatches I bought, Mars and Uranus. The MoonSwatch is a collaboration between Swatch and Omega to make affordable homages to the venerable Speedmaster, the watch that astronauts wore to the moon, so it's called the "Moonwatch". People seem to have strong opinions abou...

In this video, I unbox the new special edition Swiss GMT auto wristwatch that Out of Order has released for their 10th anniversary. This watch retails for 1000 euros! Because I visited their headquarters in the summer of 2022, I dared to ask Ricky, the founder, to let me buy watch number 42 out of 65, and he sold it to me!

    Usually burnt valves are caused by valve clearances too tight so that the valve doesn't rest on the seat long enough for some heat to be absorbed by the valve seat and the head and the water jacket

    • @DrPronghorn
      @DrPronghorn 9 годин тому

      That's exactly what happened here. I got an extra 12 years out of the valves by putting in the paper gaskets between the cam carriers and the heads, but eventually they did burn through
