Conservative Restoration of a Bike - I’ll need to install a small motor on it
In this second part of the video, I will carry out a conservative restoration of a bike that I will later use to install the Alpino Micromotor. I will try to keep as many of the bike's original components as possible to give it a vintage, well-worn look

The radio belongs to my grandmother. I found it among her belongings in the basement, and when I asked her who it belonged to, she replied saying it was a gift from my grandfather, her husband, and that they used to take it with them when they went on picnics. My grandfather is no longer with us, and my grandmother was very upset about the condition the radio was in. Without saying anything, I ...

Flashlight Restoration for a Bike from 1950

Flashlight Restoration for a Bike from 1950 This old flashlight, probably from the 1950s, was produced by Trehawk, and doing some research, it appears that the company is very old and also produced flashlights used during WW2. The video flashlight is a model that can be used on the bike but also as a portable flashlight, since it uses a battery inside and not the dynamo of the bike to turn on. ...

    Nice to see an Alfa being rescued. Honest question, this car needs a lot of repair and attention so what you fixed, to my understanding, was just to be able to drive it. But pretty much everything will need revisiting. So why do just about what’s necessary and not a full overhaul, since you can’t use the car in this state anyway.

    I bought a new 850 Sport Coupe in Germany while stationed there in 1972; my father had 500, 600, and 850 in Washington State of the US, and I had a 600 before my US Army time in (West) Germany. Unfortunately, the 850 ate two engines (I blame the oil pump layout in the 850 engine), and I sold it before going back to the US, taking a Mercedes 319 bus back to the US instead (the 850 would have been a better choice). I sold the 319 to a ski bum and bought a 124 Sport Coupe instead.

    The fact is that you did an excellent job. I believe that the cut battery cables were done by firefighters. The car had power problems and was a fire risk. That's why it was

    • @Ego.Reficio
      @Ego.Reficio 13 днів тому

      The cables were cut because, where the car is located, there have already been small copper thefts. I didn't know while I was shooting the video that they had cut those cables. Fortunately, they only cut those parts and not other wires like those of the control unit, otherwise, it would have been more complicated to reconnect everything

  • @elvishudorovic2424

    Now a valve needs to be fixed because it's running on three spark plugs and I think the piston has also gone, and the shock absorbers and the power steering need to be replaced.

    • @Ego.Reficio

      During engine startup, I hadn't realized that the oil hadn't reached the hydraulic lifters yet, which is why that noise could be heard. But then it went away, and the engine started running smoothly

    NOW how satisfying it is watching this video, After a day of work, Sipping a Bailey's on my sofa whilst outside, BERGEN -Norway there is a thunderstorm...; Really enjoyed n' GREAT job lads" The Vintage Vespa Piaggio scooter? In the video? A velvety touch of CLASS, Spot On. Alfa Romeo cars , Unfortunately have never been that popular here in Norway - Think there was/is a Stigma attached to them like" They Rust, And pathetic on the electric side, But Great engine, Sporty nice design, But rot easily" especially if living seaside town and snow...Now just 32 years old, I like Alfa's " Never drove one", Especially the ALFA THEMA" Ferrari" - Alfa's like Marmite " Either You ❤ It" The Alfisti..., Will buy , ❤ N' drive only Alfa Romeo, Or like most Norwegians, Hate it" Designed by "Pininfarina, What a car 40 yrs. Old, The Alfa 164, Looks superb. Great Big job there in the Video, Hats off N Respects🇸🇯🐺

From the way you described the moment you watched the video, I imagined a true moment of relaxation just for yourself. I have to admit, I envied you! As for the Alfas, those from the 90s were a bit problematic, but it must be said that they still retained their originality with their design and driving fun

    ce l'ho avuta anche io ma era un auto over prezzata per quello che offriva cioè niente, solo motore e alcuni modelli erano sempre perennemente scarburati specie i quelli I.E. come la mia 1500 I.E. si guastava il debimetro a paletta e si perdevano almeno il 40% delle prestazioni, mi ricordo portando l'auto nelle officine ufficiali ALFA R. e protestando circa la perdita di potenza NON CI CAPIVANO UNA SEGA e mi dicevano che andava bene solo perchè l'auto era marciante .....nessuno capiva che era il debimetro a paletta difettoso a causare la perdita in potenza .....che CANI .....l'ho tenuta per 12 anni che rendeva al 50% e addio accellerazioni ALFA ......e si vantavano pure di essere meccanici ... del CAZZZ

    Very good job :)) Please tell me what these spark plug spacers were used for? The spark plug was screwed into these spacers to increase the volume of the combustion chamber and change the compression ratio to a lower one? Regards . Adam from Poland

    • @Ego.Reficio
      @Ego.Reficio 25 днів тому

      Hi Adam, Thank you! These spacers are used to prevent oil from reaching the spark plug and damaging the spark. They were used on high-mileage engines where oil would easily rise through the cylinders and end up in the combustion chamber

      @supermolibden5037 25 днів тому
