What a simply stunning vehicle that Miura is and what a history! I tune carbs by ear and have done all my working life. I find today too many people put their faith in the technology they are plugging into a car rather than just by using their eyes and ears. Be lucky and thank you for the video. Top notch.
According to the DVD commentary of the Italian Job, the wrecked chassis that ended up in the river completely disappeared. They went back the next day to retrieve it and it was gone.
Gives me goosebumps, just thinking of Rossano Brazzi, touring through the alps, with Quincy Jones music, in the background...this Italian 12 cylinder singing right along.
Beautiful car. Used to love balancing carbs years ago. Had an MG Mastro 1.6 with the R series engine and 2 twin 40's carbs. Carbs were always going out of tune due to vibration so I ended up balancing each twin with vacuum gauges , drop of loctite on the air mixture screw. Then balancing the twins together with the centre linkage loctited as well. Once I'd done that, it stayed in tune for the few years that I owned it. Must admit that out of the various cars I've owned through the years, that one I regret selling.
My dad’s friend had a 1.6 maestro with double twin webbers, he said it pulled away in 4th gear 💁♂️ not sure if it was true, I know it felt faster than other cars I had been in as a kid in the late 80’s
A real pleasure to watch clips from these passionate people.I was involved with classic's back in the 80's having access to a couple of secret warehouses full of classics in Surrey.Got married and left it behind.Miss it badly.Now thinking back to days in Bora's Khamsin's,remember drives in James Bonds white Lotus and brown one with ski rack.People used to look at us thinking we made cars look like originals,when in fact they were.Wish we had smart phones back them would have millions of pics.Two original bonds cars driving behind each other on public roads on way to Surrey county show back in 80s,awesome.Does the Maserati Bora still hold speed record of 162mph on duel carriageway at East Clandon Surrey?.Did Bobby Bells (RIP)Knobby Lister beat it.Happy days.
Good Evening sir, It's Jay here. What a wonderful find and a stunning car. Set up, cleaned and restored to your usual perfection. I remember that pig of a Merc which was unreal when you finished it. Stunning. Hope you are well. Take care
Sir, thank you very much. This is my favorite car since I discovered it in a Swedish motor magazine in the late 60:th. I have once had the opportunity to sit in one, roughly 1980 at company Ital American cars i Stockholm :-)
Just came out a rolling road with a 4.2 e type on Webber’s, £880 later still not satisfied, im asking myself why did I not go to this man and his rubber tube, who just seems like such a honest extremely knowledgeable fella..!!! A very rare find these days..
I've seen you do this in a few videos and will apply it to my FZR 1000 with 4 Mikunis. Tonight I've had a listen and can tell #2 is different than the rest. I'm using a PVC pipe I had laying around and it feels a bit echo-y. Does rubber give a clear sense of the sound?
"You're only supposed to tune the bloody engine" ... spoken in a Michael Caine accent 👓 Fascinating video, never realised this car still existed. Need to get that and the Bullitt mustang together.
Days like these should be played at some point in this vid, but not on top of the engine sound. I couldn't help but wonder if the owner had also been hunting tigers with a machine gun. The Aston and, I think possibly, the E type have been recovered and restored some time ago. Loved the vid, good to know people can still do things without a lap top.
I just checked. The Muira had a bit of a habit of catching fire if you didn’t get this right. Evidently spat fuel on the exhaust. Would love to know if I am right. A beautiful car though , a real classic. My opinion just a beautiful car, a school boys dreams that later became the Countach), but it had no power assist on Brakes & Steering so was a beast to drive I have read. In the sixties in particular there were few real Weber Experts, so they were hard to get running perfectly. Phil Irving who designed Jack Brabhams 1966 Repco Formula one motor, was one of those guys, my uncle who was hugely into cars in the 50’s & 60’s told me about Irving. He was a whizz at tuning Weber’s & SU’s (Austin Healey). In the 50’s there were no electronic flow metres it was all done by ear. Having these things tuned correctly was very important because of the the fire risk.
In 1975 I knew two people in London who owned Miuras, both were right hand drive of which, I think, only 7 were ever built. My memory of them was how painful was the engine noise after 20 minutes of riding in one of them. Beautiful cars but oh so noisy. One of those cars was written off after it went through a light pole which essentially removed the left hand side of the car a few minutes after the passenger had been dropped off. The driver said it was a jammed throttle....hmmm?
you have 3 screws per carburetor, then lets say you have per screw around 20 possible turn positions. That makes for 12 cylinders around 96000 possible variations of carburetor settings. And he is doing it just with his ears..
If you watch the opening scene carefully the car does look more orange than red in certain shots. My guess is they were loaned an orange car, but the wreck they bought for the final shots was red. So the cameramen were told to use filtering where possible to make the orange look redder. This can be done.The wreck they pushed off the cliff was a stripped out shell, no engine, no transmission, in fact every valuable part that could be stripped out was taken.Either way it's a shame if this car sits in a garage. They should lend it to Harry Metcalfe and let him drive it like a hooligan over Great St Bernard Pass again!
listening by the ears will tell you how rich you are,are poor you are .also you must synchro each venturi one by one and it depends also on hthe compression of each piston.Balncing,synchro the carbs is a science that is almost lost today in todays ECM engines.i have done many on GoldWing's and now working on a beautiful little 400 suzuki engine. Great job Mr.Tyrrell Gef
Hard to describe a beautiful car . In racing a beautiful car is the fastest of a discipline , the miura is very attractive especially in orange . My favourite F1 car that wasn't a championship winner was Senna's 93 McLaren
same thing I was wondering, the red orange could just be the film stock, as it seems to be lobster red orange, but the gold's more curious, was it taken off and switched or changed for continuity reasons to match the wrecked car?
Beautiful sounding and looking...hope it is the real car used in the movie...although the color in the video looks more orange/red as opposed the red as in the movie...maybe Paramount color film fine tuning....also the car in the movie the top of the seats were white (as per Iain's), but the bottom part of the seat is a dark color...not white...curious.
Hi Jeremy, Thanks for your comments. You are correct- I've spoken with one of the cameramen on the 2nd. unit location (the Miura scene). They had to use pretty strong filters to keep the glare under control mid-summer at 2400 metres up, to prevent the orange being "blown-out". An original photo taken by one of the crew shows the orange very much closer to the true colour. The white leather seats were temporarily removed during shooting (a very simple job on a Miura) and refitted with black vinyl "mule" ones which the factory used for testing. This was to keep the white leather ones perfect before delivery to its first owner. Iain
The old Alfa manuals showed to short the plugs one by one, to see/hear the difference each makes. Works well, but I suspect this is an animal of a different colour...
Interesting. I remember reading in Car or Octane, one of those... that the Miura had been found and photographed, the evidence in various screen shots. As always the facts are argued by owners of other 'real deal' cars. Looked pretty conclusive though. I'd like one with a few more miles on the oily bits..
You cannot adjust each carburetors main jet by ear, only idle and half throttlee.also using a hose as an method might have been the thing to do at the Triumph motorcycle works.but i happen to know that they used the proper airflow meter in Italy in those days, also the engines was made by Lambretta of scooter fame.Lamborghini has never made their own engines, not even the tractors.
Iain worked on my Porsche 944 when he had a garage in Wallasey in the late eighties. Always came over as a very honest bloke who knew his stuff and I was shocked when he told me he was moving on to try and make a career in singing. Nice to see him messing around with cars again. I wonder what happened to the beautiful yellow Ferrari Dino gathering dust at the back of his workshop?
Amazing! This will probably go to another collection as it was before - it will never be driven. That makes me sad. Anyway, interesting video. I saw a segment on this car in the Mail on Sunday. I heard that the damaged one they used in the film to throw off the cliff was owned by a rich Arab, who had previously crashed it. Don't quote me on it though, don't know how authentic that is. Me want this car...
And not a pair of gloves, safety glasses or overalls to be seen. Well done that man ! Bet he was off to play a round of golf after that before coming back to realign the secondary layshaft output spigot which i heard rumbling in the background.
This car is Orange and you say it is almost completely original, the cars in the movie are Red. Has the colour in the movie been changed or something else?
@@bluejayfabrications2216 My Flir camera gives multiple numerical values apart from visual indication and 0.1 Deg C resolution so could look at the manifold temperatures. Iain's ear is probably more accurate.
I don't buy it. This Miura is supposedly original condition from when it was used in the movie. Yet the car in the movie looks VERY much Red, not Orange. For color contrast with yellow tractor in movie. Also look at the interior; this car has white seats and headrest. The Red Miura in the movie has white headrest, black seat. I just saw a documentary where the movies producer referred to the Orange Miura, weird, I swear it looks red.
Try reading the replies above (including from Iain himself) regarding the apparent colour difference of the car, it will appear very different filmed under lights in a garage on digital than on film stock recorded over 50 years ago. It is also explained why the seats were black, not white as produced, but as the white head rests were attached to the rear glass compartment they couldn’t be removed, hence the non-matching seats and headrests. The white seats were replaced following filming so that the car could be delivered as planned to its Italian purchaser. The Lamborghini historians have matched the car using the chassis number.
The skill,knowledge and experience demonstrated by this man is amazing to see. there's always something special about the old way of doing things.
And I was told this was tricky! 😊 Experience makes it look absurdly simple...
Oh ffs! Why don't you offer to hold his manservant while he's taking a pee?

If it were my car tuning for smooth idle would be very far from my thoughts. Tuning for performance, now that's something else!
If it was possible to measure the exhaust temperature of each cylinder and tune accordingly, who knows how many more horsepower could be found.
It is possible to do a hand tune as far as exhaust temps with a heat sensitive wire and stop watch
