Ironically the safest car y'all have built
True. Probably the most reliable one too.
Oh..... No you didn't....🤣😂🤣😂
but... YOU DID!
I'm dying in the corner over here!! 🤣😂🤣☠️☠️
🤣💯💯💯
Hardly ironic. It's a wheel to wheel race car.
Well....
It’s weird seeing it stock lol
They're going by what you did on the killswitch... Next their going to start a new channel too called "F is for Fish" ;-)
@@TheRogueBro lololol
ChisFix here
Chirs fix make a good air flow to your car and flaps for turning and a brake race disc to prevent from heating and cracking wish you luck 🍀
I like that the goal was make it look awesome, making it run, meh. Thank you for making sure I could fit.
Jared
Jared, I’m glad you fit in there! I wish we could have made you more comfortable!
Great job guys ! I hope you all had a great time at lemons 🍋
But runs. Just don't shut it off...
This is going to be epic! This build is epic.
This should solve the starting problem: A non-return valve in the fuel line is defective and is slowly allowing fuel to flow out of the line back into the tank. As a result, it takes forever to start, but if it was only off for a short time, you don't notice it and it starts immediately.
Spoiler alert, they had to buy something at the race to fix it, it wasn't cheap 😂
@@joealex65 what did they have to buy?
Pretty sure the fuel filter has the check valve. $40 part max and 10 min fix
@@joealex65 Had to go to sleep so I couldn’t watch it til the end🙂
This is exactly what i thought when i saw that.
Check crankshaft position sensor. It's the first thing you want to replace on any early 2000s Merc. A bad one throws no codes and results in intermittent no engine start condition.
Just wait to see what they had to do to fix it at the race 😂
Temperature of a bad sensor being hot will cause it not to start in my past experiences.
Or
If the sensor or plate has any oil on it from a rear main seal leak will cause it not to start.
Both scenarios throw the timing off telling it not to start.
I love how the sticker on the door specifically say "eat ass" when the door is open hahaha. I am SURE that is not an accident!
Love the lemon build tho. Reminds me of the old 'chaotic' days with the BRZ in the backyard.
Dont forget how the other side says "I love big jugs" when the door is open haha
@@longlivegarybusey6409 Oh daaang you are right hahaha
Lemon has to change the $500 to like $1000, inflation has gotten the best of everything!
The thought is they spent 500 on the car then however much on safety and mods, they stayed true to that, I don't know what you are talking about
@@benthebuilder6934 due to inflation the price of things has almost doubled, $500 doesn't buy you anything much these days.
@@professorjamesmoriarty5191 I totally read that comment wrong I see what he is saying now, that makes sense. I though he meant people are spending more than the 500 dollar limit
They should have at least enforced the $500 limit too. Spending $1800 on a car and selling parts to get it "under $500" is a pretty dumb interpretation of the rule.
@@jasonnickel384 he said it the video it's about who can bend the rules the most, that's what all of racing does and they only have 500 into the car so I don't see why it matters. If they bought a car for 500 the race wouldn't be fun, no one would even make it half way
WELCOME TO LEMONS! i am one of the co-hosts for the 24 Hours of Lemons iRacing league on youtube and facebook! great to see you goobers building something to bring to one of our crap-can races!
i got to put my finger on the actual D2 race cars from back in the day, i was stationed in germany and was able to put literally hundreds of laps on the Nurburgring. the museum at the track and visitors center had several D2 mercs on display at that time. (1999-2001ish). beautiful cars! love the idea, and i think you got close enough!
I had an old bmw that started doing this randomly. Took me 15-20 mins to start it. Figured out it was a defective security sensor in the key (the ignition cylinder charges the key). New battery in the key fob fixed it👍🏼
If your story is about an E46, that is false. In an E46, the key battery only controls locking and unlocking. The transponder portion inside the key that speaks to the EWS does not require a battery/charge.
I had the identical problem with my BMW (E88), with a different cause. it could be any or all of 10,000 things with a BMW
I see you've taken the Top Gear approach to livery.. 🤣🤣
Looks amazing, looking forward to seeing it not start at the race!
very subtle until the doors are opened :)
The break on the vinyl on the drivers door is epic
and the b pillar on the passenger side says "I ❤️ BIG JUGS" 😂 best livery ever?
I love the stickers that change when the doors are open "eat ass" and "I ❤️ big jugs" 🤣 🤣 🤣
the decals when the doors are open vs closed reminded me of Top Gear when they did the 24 hours of lemans. great stuff
Accidentally building a DTM car - that looks bonkers!
what a great episode. everyone had so much fun. kyle did a great job, and chelsea with the decals-what a finish! these collaborations are great- we know everbody!
Worked on Benz for over 20 years professionally. Put a crank sensor in it. They never set a code when they fail. To check it, see if your fuel pump has a signal when cranking, if not then it needs the crank sensor. Ecu will not send a fuel pump signal if there is no rpm signal when cranking. Crank sensor is rear of engine drivers side on the top of the bell housing. Bolt is an E8, use a 1/4" drive ratchet with a real long extension and a wobble. Put a piece of tape in the socket before putting it on the bolt to hold the bolt in the socket. 100% this will fix the starting issue.
I was gonna say that, same problem I had with my CLK320.
Two things Make sure that you are getting a crank signal on start. Second, the fuel filter is a pressure regulator and is known to go bad and lose prime.
I love the top gear style graphics that split at the doors to say… completely mundane and normal and safe things. :)
I love the longer length videos! I feel like I could watch hours and hours on end and I still wouldn't get bored!
This is so hilarious. I love the drag generators over the front wheel arches and the tire wake squirt tunnel aero thing. The whole thing is just grin-inducing.
Chelsea is the MVP with the strategically places livery.
Had one of these back in 2008 - loved it. The design with the pillar-less windows and seatbelt extenders is amazing. A truely elegant coupe! Was also the most reliable car I ever had. You guys got the best engine as well with the M112 V6. The c209 is the 2 door coupe and the a209 is the convertible model. They did a facelift in 2005 which look a bit nicer but ironically they removed the reliable M112 and replaced it with the M272 which had balance shaft issues. Good luck on your trip!
Dude when the driver door is open and it says eat ass has me rolling! Reminds of of top gear!
I see the "top gear" inspiration with the decals. With the door open , you can read "I love big jugs" on the right side and "eat ass" on the left side :))))) . Love to see you guys living the moment , also i love the collabs with other youtubers. Much love from Romania !
I've always wanted to do this. So glad to see you doing this.
24 hr LeMans vs 24 hr Lemons. I've been watching Crisfix for a while. He's been way advanced than y'all built his BMW months before and he even got a spare engine from Jamie's garage 😆
Pretty sure Chris had an extra year since he dnf in the last one
if it only happens when after you've driven it and the engine is warm, i'd highly recommend a new crank position sensor. i worked as a benz tech and it was a common problem.
These are mega reliable but those 12 spark plugs and maf sensors can be annoying.
Besides that they're great lol
You're right about the cheating bit. It's all about being clever. I remember the old rally days where mechanics and engineers would hide entire turbo-chargers somewhere lol car looks like a proper racer tho, you guys did a good job. This should be a fun event for sure.
Cesare Fiorio, the team boss of Lancia, once ordered 300 tonnes of salt, and had it spread along the snowy route of Monte Carlo because they knew their RWD car was at a disadvantage against Audi Quattro. So Audi went out on snow tyres, thinking it was partially snowy and icy..While Lancia, knowing it would be dry, went out on slicks and beat Audi by 11 minutes... Ingenious cheating tactics.
In group b, rules were a bit loose so a lot if not all teams made roll cages in aluminum tubing to make it lighter. Not safe, but another way to bend rules.
Don't forget the Toyota with the turbo restrictor mounting that would change shape under load - that one was pure genius!
Remarkable. I'm quite sure the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Racing Team will be handing all their engineering design work over to you guys immediately.
Lewis might rather have a go in this vs their POS F1 car this season.
I love How Oscar fakes a laugh all the time just to make himself fit in. Lmfao
I was laughing so hard at this one. It's absolutely ridiculous and crazy and great, and I love it. Can't wait to see the race!
You 100% should have committed to the platypus, painted it brown and given it eyes. Way more legit than a mock racecar IMO
LMAO
“Need For Speed Underground !” Love it! In my imagination I can see the No2 purges and Fluorescent lights under the car!
I’m such an NFS nerd, I even have the first one, Car and Driver version!
The amount of creativity you guys do is immense. You are way more serious than Rich. This car might be a keeper as opposed to a disposable device. The garbage can roof scoop is brilliant.
I have a feeling they’re definitely building a real one of these in the future 👀
The trash can scoop is my fav…all though I do actually like the trailer fenders better than rivet cheap lookin over fenders lol
I think it looks phenomenal. B is for Build does it again.
"Eat Ass" 🤣 well done guys. Be good to see you and Rich Rebuilds do some racing.
Check the fuel rail for pressure. If no pressure you need a fuel pump. My 2004 e500 was doing the same and then the fuel pump stopped working completely.
I love the decals!! Open the door and it says "EAT ASS"......brilliant!
The body kit look freaking brilliant, great work guys 👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘Cheers from Melbourne Australia
Lmao always enjoy your content! Actually looks way better with the decals!
A monster.. seesh.
Check the cam position sensor for the hard starting issue. It can be an intermittent issue that wouldn't throw a dash light until the car is running, and those cam position sensor are notorious for being bad on the early to mid 00s Mercedes US imports.
You all made me sooo happy when you welded the beefy plate and spoiler directly to the truck. LEMONS!
Love the long videos, hell of a build, I saw what you did there with the decals on the door when it opens 🤣🤣🤣 cleaver, it reminded me of the old top gear episode when they race the endurance race at Silverstone,
The decals are killer, it's interesting to look at when you open the doors. Nice work!
That’s awesome I have that CLK GTR D2 die-cast model. And if you where into RC cars in the early 2000’s there was a micro rc called “Mini Z” and this was one of the car bodies you could have and it’s one I still have. So cool!!
You know that all of the great designers have their awesome fabricators. You have the BEAST of fabricators in Oscar! I mean is there anything he can't create? I don't think so.
Chris your body kit is brilliant!!!
Amazing!!! I wish I could do the same thing to my 2005 Mercedes S500.
Well technically if its paid off its worth whatever. It's still going to cost you close to 20k plus after mods (roll cage, labor, safety equip, lodging, pit crew, drivers, spares, transport etc...) for the 4 day event. Consider it a bucket list of things too do in a lifetime. Did a lot of enduro racing in the 90's same concept except we would do 500 laps instead of hours.
The single best decal plavement EVER on the driver door. 🤣🤣💯🤘
The trashcan roof scoop is the piece de resistance IMHO! Love it!
I bet fuel is back flowing to the gas tank. So everytime you need to start it, it needs to prime the whole line again.
It wouldn’t be B is for build without a giant ass wing 🤣
Good video guys
Not gonna lie, looks WAY better than I was expecting... apart from it being an automatic 🤷
have to agree with that
This.
Wow!!! It was really challenging!!! I’m very happy of being able to watch you run in the 24 Hour of Lemons!
Are there any boat updates planned?
Cool!! I literally have a Clk320! Excited for this :D
Crank position sensor cam position sensor in that order. Second thing that comes to mind is fuel pressure. Since it's push to start you can't prime the fuel sender like a keyed vehicle.
Oddly enough I love the trailer fender on the front wheel
**slaps roof of car** This bad boy can fit so many Lemons in it
Check the crankshaft position sensor Chris, it’s common in the 500 and the 350 and those are the symptoms. A little hard to get to but not an expensive part.
I love at the end when you open the door and it says “eat ass”. Had me dying laughing. 😂
You guys should run a piece of tubing from the air intake box through the firewall into the cabin so the driver can spray starting fluid and start the car by himself if need be.
I have already used Metal Supermarket for my locost build. They are great.
The "Eat Ass" and "I Heart Big Jugs" on the doors were *chefs kiss
Just so you know Chris fix had a freshly built engine for his BMW for free from Jaime's garage I'd say that's pretty much the sneakiest so far
the car looks great. the decals are awesome. cant wait for the race - i hope you guys win, you deserve it!
I actually love this, gives me group b vibes. I’ll be supporting team Oregon!
1:20 seconds into the video and I love it already . Nothing better than a car build battle
I really want to see you guys build a clk gtr kit car now that would be awesome
Nice livery placement on the driver door "EAT A$$" 🤣
I giggled through this whole video lol. Fun times to build something and not take it too seriously. Lol
hahahaha love the EAT CUP NOODLES and ASSOCIATES. Especially what it reads when the door is open 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Really cool to see Chelsey getting involved 👍 Definitely dig the rip on the race car vibe. The Lemons race here in Georgia, is the last one of the year...and it's ALWAYS in bad weather lmao! Can't wait to see the race video for this!
The decals with the door open are epically and subtly naughty. Home run!
I love the trashcan on the roof. Pure genius
Y'all seem very tired here and I would just like to say that I love it! The goofy shenanigans are what I'm here for!
Been watching since the early days and this may be my favorite episode yet
It was nice seeing the old shop again after so long
That roof scoop is pure genius.
Wow that is my exact car. Down to the 2004 coupe clk320 even the rims are the same! This is gonna be fun to watch
I love stuff like this. We get to see how truly creative Chris can be. This is the perfect lemons styling and the decals just put it over the top. Nailed it!
That car was in Hawaii at some point 🤙. And I dig how well the trailer fenders worked for this build!
Love the Top Gear inspired sponsors 🤣
Haha decals are awesome! When you have the doors open, even better! Well done 👍
See Oscar fake a laugh at 8:01
He always does this to fit in lmfao!!!
You guys built a giant knife on the trunk of the car!
I can't wait for the race! Hope it all turns out well (pun intended)!
Like mentioned a bad return solenoid or your fuel tank purge solenoid is bad creating back pressure in your return line. Once it purges that out from cranking, it will start till it sits and the vapors lock it again.
This has to be the funniest episode that b is for build have ever produced! A trash bin for a roof scoop? Who would ever think of that!
"It's not leaking fluid..."
*Gives a side-eye at Rich Rebuild's jalopy*
Trashcan scoops. You have given my DIY Kart a sound idea for some body work!
Pretty Impressive building your own body kit in one video
Awesome content
Sometimes it takes them weeks. Cool to see someone thinking on their feet!
the trash can hood scoop is my favorite part!
Haven't watched all, but 5 minutes in sounds like a fuel purge valve if it has a high pressure fuel system.
Gotta say enjoying so far... wanted to see how you solved the fenders.. Slowed playback to 0.5 and your speech is far Funnier. Sound like you had a long night.
Great vid!
Thanks, Don't savy new communication systems.
Are you trying to contact me?
Best to you Scott🏁
That platypus front had me dying!
