Cold start Tatra 815 after more than a year. Will it start?!

This is part one of freeing and moving the Tatra 815! I’ll try to put the batteries back in place after the tent roof is high enough. But the big question is… will it start?

Hi Hank... Niiiice 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 But 4 thinks: 1, never , again ,NEVER push the clutch by the start. You can push the clutch only when you have air in system (900kpa) . When you push the clutch withaut air, you damage the booster (power) clutch under the cab, and is really shit work to fix it🙏🫣🫣 , so be cearfull with that 🙏
2, for start, use the diesel pump, than stop the diesel pump and start. No start with diesel pump together.
3, the tyres filled with water are ok , it is for better stabilization in terrain. I use it to for my Tatras👍🏻😉
4, the air pressure in the tyres is NO 900kpa, it is front only 450-500kpa and back 550-600kpa. And you can go down in mud to 70-100kpa,no problem, it is taktik tyres, so is fine👍🏻😉

I bought it in Austria and then it was transported to Sweden 😅 they had many different older military trucks. But I liked the Tatra the most!
