You are spot on regarding the Pakistani Engineers. They have to make due with what they have. Considering under what circumstances they have to do their job, I am always impressed by these guys.
i wouldnt say a random guy doing mechanic in sandal in a workshop is an engineer lol.
@@lo2740 you can never judge them tbh , maybe they know exacltly what they are doing but limited by whatever the little tools they have so their work looks crude
@@lo2740 those are not hacks, they've been usually training and apprenticing in the family business since they could hold a spanner. same for the guys doing the maintenance of all those century old english looms and intricate machinery making what you wear. so yeah, they don't wear the fancy and useful ppe but they usually know what they do as when they do 💩ty work their customers can get more than irate, verging on lethal if you see my drift... 😎
Do they?
So they can't put a wood floor down or some concrete?
I've been poor and had to use what I had access to. Sometimes using tools that weren't even made for what I'm using them for, and I still worked more professionally than they do.
This is cultural or possibly related to IQ.
@@orange_tweleve Right, learning how to put an engine together is not being an engineer though. You can be taught how to do that, and only that.
Proof they are not engineers is the environment they're working in. An engineer would be ingenuitive and figure out a way to put a floor in there, and other things.
Real engineers won't work like this.
Loved that. Very respectful reaction to our mechanical brothers in Pakistan😁 . They sometimes have an unconventional way of doing things, but they seem to get their, often ancient, massive mileage, vehicles back running every time and quickly.
I have had over 50 years from apprentice to service manager in the automotive and heavy truck repair and i feel i am well qualified to comment on your operation. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING. You have a good crew that take pride in what they do, your interpersonal skills are excellent, and do you ever look after your guys, TRACK DAYS.....WOW. I know they appreciate it. You have a unique specialty with older British engines, its a dying trade....I know this as I build Triumph overdrive transmissions in my retirement , and there is no shortage of customers but a huge shortage of mechanics willing to rebuild them.
Keep up the good work,
Cheers Lee C
Well said Lee well said. 👏
If only they could fix that negative ground system that fails over and over,,I've been stuck with my Porsche TWICE it gets old
Its an exact mirror of your w/shop! Flushing truck wash outside into stormwater drains, trainers (and shorts Lee) been worn in the w/shop area, filthy machines. And as to the bars used to push in the BSA liners the other day, was an accident waiting to happen. The difference is, the guy's in India have no PPE and cant use it, where as you have PPE and wont use it.
I agree
I am a retired engineer using hardened steel ie hammerheads are dropforge on a mild steel dolly is perfectly fine but you have to grind the burrs off when they start to build up you probably use one that was not deburred
As a layman what is he talking about, breaking the hammer or the rod? I don't see how you can shatter a solid lump of steel?
I am from Pakistan and a technician in Australia. First time i have seen someone is doing constructive criticism. Love your work. N i hope this will give us more understanding to learn from each other.
Keep the format exactly how you have it Lee. Live the honesty and showing the ins and outs of the business. Watched every video you've done and love the channel.
Love your content, very fresh and you keep us in the loop with what goes on in the shop.
Glad you give us, the good, the bad and the ugly👍
You are such an honest and transparent team. Keep up the good work.
You keep doing what you're doing lee it's great to see you guys working on all sorts of engineering projects and talking us through it
Hi Lee, love the channel. When I fit cylinder heads which have bolts rather than studs I get a couple of lengths of dowling and slide them into a couple of the threaded bolt holes in the block, drop the gasket over the top so the dowling keeps the gasket square then gently fit the head with 3 or 4 bolts then remove the dowling, works a treat.
Kind regards Colin M.
Totally 100% agree with you Lee, you would have the best job in the world but you’ve got human beings in the mix ! Keep up the good work and keep the vids running 👌
Enjoyed this video, keeping it real is the best policy. You definitely need that new unit, and the sooner the better 👍.
Love your WORK!!! Always entertaining with constant reference to what you are doing!! Follow other machine shops doing engines on here, but I like your best.
Your honesty makes this a great channel.
Love your channel. Good to streamline the garage !
I watch some of their videos, the one that amazed me the most was when they welded a broken crank and how they trued it up
Always look forwards to your vid's. Keep up the good work.
Good Evening from New Zealand. Love your videos. Carry on doing it as you've done before. :)
I think you were very fair in your reaction vid ..Im totally addicted to Pakistani truck and similar vids, As a machinist i cant help watching the machine shop videos...im both like jezoos..O_O!! and Bravo at the same time
too bad the original video wasn't linked in the description though... 🥴
Bit over 40 years ago, spent time in Pakistan as a staff member of an embassy. Had a Mk2 Cortina GT, which burned a valve. Took the head down to the embassy's preferred garage, for repair. Got a call it was ready, and very insistent I took the car down for them to reinstall, which I did, Car ran perfectly. I was puzzled that Kent valves were available locally, and was told they had machined Mercedes valves to suit. Was charged the equivelant of 12 quid for the whole job. They also 'rebuilt' front suspension ball joints Dont know how they did it, but we never had a failure.
Pakistani's have an amazing ability to repair anything. A Brit diplomat dropped and smashed the case of his electric razor. No problem, the locals made a new one. On return to Britain he went to the razor company's head office to buy a 'real' case. He was asked why he needed one as what he had was perfect. When he pointed out that the case was carved from wood, the company asked if they could keep his razor in exchange for a new unit. They wanted his for their museum.
You should do that for a giggle, have three of you lapping in valves on a 6cyl head. Just for fun, to show you can do it as well.
The ingenuity of people always amazes me.
Don't change a thing. Love the content and the format.
Have you seen Warren on western truck and tractor repair ? The engineering he does a a field mechanic is quite simply awesome.
It's still morning when I watched this... I feel left out on your introduction... Lol. Great video never the less.
I usually view the videos in the morning here in Texas. Always enjoyed the "Good Morning Guys!" It's 2 hours until afternoon.
Those guys amaze me. They had a truck broke down on the road. Pulled the axle out of it, loaded it onto the back of a tuk-tuk, hauled it to a shop, welded it up, hauled it back and reinstalled it. All the while traffic is whizzing by on both sides. Their shop environment makes yours look like a laboratory.😁
9:10 ‘No torquewrench’.... it’s easy;after some years it is integrated in your arms!!!!.... you get a ‘feel’ for it!!!!
Well I did anyway;working WITH a torquewrench the ‘click’ becomes predictable....
Just a suggestion, when fitting the Cos head gasket/head could you not screw a couple of temporary studs in the block to locate the gasket then slide the head down over the temporary studs, then screw in a couple or so of the actual head bolts then remove the temporary studs. Locating done. Great and interesting video's. Thank you for your time and efforts in making them.
That is exactly how I did it back in the 80's
I like it... I've never seen your show before ....but I like the attitude and honesty so far.
Jeez Lee , those guys in jandles , bit of a laugh . Here's a story , coming from down under , New Zealend , having trained building racing motors in the 70s ,v8s big 6s F5000 open saloons etc , I relocated to Auckland to run a reconditioning factory . A lot of the boys and girls were Samoan s and they wore jandils. We called them Samoan Safety Shoes . My next door neighbor is Samoan and not long ago he and his brothers were cutting long grass with weedwackers in , you guessed it , jandils . Love the channel mate watch it every time you are on , compulsive viewing.
I watch your videos in the morning from Perth Western Australia.
I'm in NZ, so morning is fine for me:-)
I find it fascinating to watch those Pakistani truck videos to. I have also watched people working in similar workshops in India. It is incredible what they acheive and how they cleverly work with the conditions. Those guys are just so superlatively clever with their hands, unbelievable skills you will never see in the West. I have sucessfully assembled commercial engines in the field a number of times, but I have never tried machining one in those conditions.
The Pakistani one's I can understand.
But the India one's irritate me.
They are literally right next door from China that makes almost 80% of all tools sold in the world and many other products.
Your telling me they can't save up for one cheap Chinese made torque wrench, some safety glasses, some work boots. At some point is it not having access, or just not wanting to do it the right and safe way.
@@jerryvelasco1474 maybe you can buy it for them
Lmao...
They're working pretty much how EVERYONE did a hundred years ago...
Apparently they're not ingenuitive enough to create better work environments though.
That's because they learn how to do one thing.
@@KJT673 🤦
Did you need other people to buy you things to do your job or did you just do it because you had pride in it?
Indians have motorcycles and lots of other things, you're telling me they can't afford proper tools?
They're running a business. You're telling me they can't set aside some of that income for tools?
When I was younger I was probably poorer than your average Indian and I still managed to save up a few months and get proper tools.
The excuses I see made for this are ridiculous. Clearly coming from people with no trade skills themselves.
😂
@@KJT673
Why so they can then not use it.
Those guys in India and Pakistan are amazing. Nice that you didn't ridicule their efforts, their end product will never be as good as yours but they make the best of it.
They're not amazing at all. 😂
Literally everyone in the world was working like this 100 years ago.
This is like watching grease monkeys work. Not engineers. Not amazing, and I'm not impressed at all. I've done just as much with less tools.
Edit:
Making the best of it. A smarter person would get ingenuitive to make it better for themselves. I mean, you can't even build a work table?
Jesus built tables...
Give me a freaking break.
@@dangerous8333 Okay mate, whatever.
You have a nice set up, and I enjoy watching your video. Mainly because I used to to do engine rebuilding in Germany for a company. Personally I think that you should move the engine stripping closer to the washing machine, the main reason for this suggestion is....once the engine has been stripped and cleaned it it usually checked and measured. Afterwards a discussion with the customer, where it is decided what machining will be done and then the rebuilding will be commented. I think that you need to re-think your former plan. Other than this minor suggestion you Gents are doing a top job and should keep on marching to your beat, because it is exactly the same thing that I would do.....
Thats a good point, all so keeps the dirt that blows in when the roller door is open, away from the clean engines being rebuilt, a plastic industrial curtains { the type forklift trucks drive through} would be a good buy.
Yes Lee interesting stuff under those conditions.
Have seen some of those Pakistani videos on engine builds yeah they don’t do a bad job considering the conditions even some of their engineering videos are pretty good like making a complete cog out of a solid using the dividing head there’s been some on castings as well as you say it’s all out in the open dusty floors and flip-flops not ideal but they obviously don’t have any safety standards, to worry about, as we do nice one Lee👌
I recon you will be there till midnight with what you have got plans shifting all that stuff
When I nod my head you hit it🤣🤣🤣🤣. That block at 10.31 is a work of art👍👍
Once I was driving my 82 honda on a highway and the timing belt broke ,I just replaced it with a used one that was lying in the trunk , took me some 30 minutes or so , was young and happy then .
I lolled as you showed your scar as I have the identical scar, on the same hand, from the identical "hammer the hard steel thing" - and the chunk of steel is still in there as taking it out proved too difficult. :-) That was a lesson learnt... :-)
Seems clean work with that engine.. Good to see professionals work.
Please don’t let the critics get to you. The type of work you do there is a link in the chain I.e. the Customer and you cannot control that. Please keep up the great videos.
These Pakistani tradesman are mental. Love watching them too. Great video again pal 👍
Always amazed at the Pakistani & Indian people who seem to repair, make do and get by! Much better than our throw away culture! Repsect to them , they work with what they have ;-)
You do understand Ashley that the rest of the civilized modern world was working like this 100 years ago? And they are the ones that taught Indians how to do this? We are advanced now and don't need to do things like this.
They also do this because their countries are corrupt. Trying to purchase things like a new engine would almost certainly cost way more than it would for someone in a less corrupt country.
The reason why people throw things away now is cause most things aren't made to be repaired.
They work like this because they choose to. If they had actual skills they could make a floor, they could make tools, build a table to work on, they could buy tools with the money they make doing the work.
Jesus was a carpenter thousands of years ago, making tables chairs and other things. What's these guys's excuse?
I would simply tell my family listen. We might have less food this month. But I'm going to get tools that make my work more efficient and I can make more money doing that.
These guys are taught how to do one thing and that's all they know.
I live in Ghana, never seen a torque wrench for sale in any shop here. I used to run a farm workshop and had to order tools from the UK. Dust floors and flip-flops 👍🏾
Try Amazon🤔
Brilliant video that really enjoyed it i always watch the Indian engineering vids
That looks like a lot of high tech engine technology love to watch you do this kind of work very entertaining it’s the real deal
You cant please everyone, I am watching this a 720am in Australia, so good morning to me 😃
Gday mate, enjoy your summer 🙂
Excellent video and commentary.
l worked in the middle east in the 80's and we would say at least they were wearing safety flip-flops!!
Keep up the great videos and stay safe.
If he is using a mild steel drift there wont be a problem as long as he keeps the mushroom ground off the end of the drift. I had a cylinder head serviced by a supposed performance shop, it lasted 3 months , I cut the seats with a Wolf seat grinder and stones fitted new valves, 3 years later still running well.
At trade school I was taught to dress my steel punches to prevent shards coming off.
Love your channel.
Also Allen Milliyard, the Pakistan vids and Le Dan,
Backyard engineering made easy.

Good morning mate. It's 7am here in Queensland. I'm watching while practicing scales on guitar.
I watched something similar where they were repairing a rear axle that had been overloaded and it had bent then snapped. Some guy ,to be fair had done a reasonable job of straightening it and preping the edges for welding. Was electric arc welding using a piece of cardboard that had a slit in it as a face mask
Love the content, how is the new building going, is it still on the cards? Keep it up 👍
Keep up the good work.
Those are OSHA approved safety flip flops and that is the clean room dirt- the axle repairs are done in the dirty dirt. Also you will note that they have 3 torque wrench settings- little guy does sheet metal, medium guy does water pump, flywheel etc. and big guy does the main and head bolts. Unlike your shop they have very little problem with customers- if some guy complains they just behead him.
@ OLD SCHOOL, Don't think they have many complaints but when they do I'm sure the clean room floor dirt soaks up that type of spillage.
What all warranty dep’ts need; guy with a Talwar
Same conditions all the face masks were made in, literally dusty floor huts and people wear wearing them!
Makes you wonder what else you think is a hygienic product but has been made by some grubby abdule in a shithole for maximum profits in the west
That’s why they are busy. 😂
In 20012 a friend purchased a v8 range rover from a auction very cheap less than 1000 pounds because it had been diagnosed with internal engine damage beyond economical repair ,He got quotes from 4 specialized engine companies the Price's ranged from 18,700 pounds up to 23,850 pounds all only giving a 3 month limited warranty, how ever , a work colleague of his told him about a small place that he knew about in the Lancashire area run by Pakistani people so he contacted them , they traveled to his home had a look around the car , told him that they could repair it and said that they would get the boss to give repair estimate once they got the car to their workshop for full assessment by end of business the following day he got the estimate £385 , to a maximum £533 , car was fully repaired 4 days later cost£458, pounds with a no quibble 6 month warranty the car ran trouble free up to 2020 when my friend sold it and still running perfect
Living in Perth Western Australia, I normally watch your video's whilst eating my breakfast at 530am so Good Morning still works for me, hahahahaha
I watch them alot also it amazes me how they rebuild things with the tools they have
It's so funny watching them disassemble a truck engine with them wearing safety flip flops. 🤣
Its actually still the morning here in Sydney 11.23am although it’s two weeks since you uploaded the vid 😂😂
You have to respect and admire those guys over in Pakistan. This is work and work we shall!
In Africa one can often see things that defy logic, One day I came up a hill in Ghana and passed a broken down artic unit that was partially blocking the road. The cab was pitched forward and two small boys were squatting on the top of the open engine and one boy was working underneath, in front of the truck stood a crankshaft, two days later I came back and the truck was gone, work that one out.
I reckon you guys could most probably make your own spring bases with all those lathes and machines you have. You could easily make a batch of 100 blanks and then machine up 16 when needed. Let us know how you get on.
I think talking about your issues is good as you aren't trying to hide them... I think a lot of people see a (no offence) 'smaller business' and try to bully them with legal teams thinking they will roll over and pay up/give up to save bad comments etc. Keep up the good work boys 👍🏻
9:36 I think many of us will have lapped valve seats like that. Think my dad and I did the engine in a Morris together when I was about 10 years old :-)
Love the Pakistani work men...nothing defeats them.
What a coincidence, i was watching the same video last night and was wondering what you thought about it.
You should say good night at the end 😂I’m always watching late night
Just a thought about those mobile Engine Stands - if they were custom made with some amount of storage and worktop area, they would be like mobile workstations, specific to that engine.
It'd only need a few bits of steel welding onto the trolley i reckon.
Engines waiting for honing would be queued up by the honing machine etc etc.
Anything waiting for ages for parts could be shunted out of the way.
seen a workshop set up like that specializing in german engine rebuilds in Poland. they pretty much worked on the same 10 or 12 engines types. very clean with a neat organization too. 👍
I still have a part of a chisel in my hand as well. Good stuff.
It's the safest job out there.... U should see the safety when their cutting a ship up
I remember watching the f150 come through the line on a discovery channel programme and was horrified at the assembly of the motor/ drivel line using all pnuematic type rattle guns,yes , probably special attention paid to setting up the torque etc but not exactly hand built perfection. At least these guys are rebuilding to the absolute limit of components and tooling. I'm always impressed by the success they have doing everything `wrong'
@Baldspot I was more concerned with the apparent lack of precision, I was a fitter/ machinist and was constantly reminded of the importance of correct procedure and specification, modern assembly lines if anything appear to accept a close enough approach,even getting new tyres fitted is a risk with an overzealous operator and his or her favourite impact gun,not to mention the fun to be had trying to remove wheels on the side of the road . The fact that these people get the job done is impressive,not saying I'll adopt their health and safety or work practices

@Baldspot Can't tell you how many aluminum crankcases were cracked at my me and my dad's old work, working at a motorsport shop. These guys that worked in the bays next to us would always be pulling everything apart with an impact which isn't too big of a deal but you know when your trying to be fast and and put them 10mm crankcase bolts with their new "trusty" snap-on impact that costs more than the neon they drive around or whatever etc, well, meshing a sidecase to the main crankcase with 150-300 ft-lbs of force for bolts that only call for maybe 30-40 ft-lbs at best (more like 26). Put it this way, would you trust a well-seasoned engine-builder with primitive tools to rebuild your engine (like not even a torque wrench besides his right arm) or a machine assembly line to go and slam in bolts based on pre-programming with no indicator to tell it that the part is not meshing right only a failsafe when the machine knows it did not complete its programmed task? I would choose the guy over the machine every time, especially in an a low-budget environment where I would be forced to rely on one engine and could not rely on lots of money backed to replace, rebuild, or even just tear apart and re-asmble the engine everytime one part was not in factory tolerance. And if parts do not work together, you know damn well the builder has a better chance at "making things work out" almost everytime when compared to an assembly machine. The fact that you second guess someone who has obviously had much experience in machining and the meshing (fitting) of parts and has his head right about what precision is any you try to ask him an unfair question (a worn, but rebuilt engine meant for a diesel truck, vs A ford engine) What ford engine, a new one? cuz if your talking about your engine I'd rather take the pakistanian engine) Ford has become more throw away than most of the other car companies and I can't tell you how many people I know that have had ridiculous problems from their shitty fitted ford engines and cars. Mainly ford cars 2015 and above. My point being, how well do you think they could rebuild one of those shitty ford engines compared to one of those almost indestructible diesel engines that those guys in Pakistan are used to rebuilding every day? That engine would fail immediately, and you would be to blame the Paki's who rebuilt it immediately, when in reality the diesel engine they rebuilt a day ago is still running strong as ever and gunna run a million before another rebuild. And you would say "Oh that's because those diesel engines don't have to be as precise and maybe you're right but at the same time just how precise do you have to rebuild a shitty little ford engine only to have it shit out in a few thousand miles because of another part that decided to prematurely fail because they believe in planned obsolescence more than your grandma believes in jesus. Just so you know that I'm not avoiding your question, yes, me personally, would rather have something built by experienced people with limited tools than idiots with all of the "advanced" assembly machines and tools that they can get there hands on. The machines are precise, yes, but they do not have brains, my final sum up being yes I would choose the pakistan engine over the shit engine because it was assembled with humans that have brains and eyes and other senses to tell them and correct them of there error, despite how common error is for humans over machines, humans will always have brains, and therefore outbest the machine everytime in their quality of worksmanship, simply can not be beat. In which case I solute (in a non-militaristic fashion) the people with the knowledge and the can do as they will have always served there job better than the machine.
you should get more information on modern industrial production lines, each bolt have a set torque and the tool used is set to that spec and controlled multiple times a day(a least in real countries, but probably not in a Ford factory 😏), settings that cannot be modified by the operator, everything is logged: tool id, bolt batch, operator, speed, angle, time, etc. with good manufacturing tolerances and replicability you can even have a total n00b using those(not recommended though 🙄) and still get a good result. i've
visited a few factories, a pruners one in Switzerland, automotive gearboxes and agriculture machinery in northeastern France, a famous _red_ construction contractors tools factory in Luxemburg and a german motorbike one in the Berlin and all of them had the same kind of tools in their production lines along with robots of course. less error prone, more time to do QC, at least in most cases, and thus less rejects at the end of day. even serious chinese manufacturers pay for and use good production tools. are the motors built like that state of the art? yes, are they the best that can be produced industrially at an affordable price? yes, are those the very best ones one can buy? probably not 'cause it would probably more than double or triple the price and the manufacturing time. 😽
@@kittytrail I'm sorry but modern manufacturing lines and the speed at which they run and produce is no guarantee of impeccable quality,yes faster,not better . A hand build, carefully assembled anything only costs more if you intend selling it. I sand and refinish floors now,have done since 1999, my machine was built in 1965,I have another from 1956. These machines were factory built,not mass produced and there is a significant difference. Any production line starts and finishes with a smart human. Computer aided anything is only good till the power fails ,then it's still up to a donkey with skills to get it up and running. Not many vehicle race teams nor serious mechanic will rely on automation or mass production. My daughter's Audi is testament to the fact that expensive mass produced `high end' vehicles can suffer from parts or manufacturers failures. I consider myself well enough educated to have an opinion,backed up by personal experience,regards
Like most people, they have never seen or touched a foreign car engine. Most if not all turn them away, since they want nothing to do with them.
I started out as a self taught mechanic since the dealership near me was no longer seller or going to sell the car I owned.
(Renault)
They are great cars IF you maintain them properly.
Not ideal to work on if you never had knowledge of them.
I myself, had turned away some work due to the research and factory tolerances. Back than the tolerances were good enough when new but wore differently when used.
I always told my clients if anything happens bring it back and I will take care of it.
Now, some issues were inherent to a particular manufacturer to which I explained to the customer and made sure they were fully aware. Some of the interesting engines you work on or have worked on are a nightmare to others.
I sympathize with you when customers think they are right yet bring it to you since you specialize in that kind of work.
Keep up with the great work!!
Having run and set up dealer workshops in the Middle East and Africa the street or market workshops run by Pakistani or Indian mechanics are a true eye openers. The only thing you find mind blowing is that they fix anything with nothing. Cleanliness and tolerance don’t exist. But the thing is the vehicles work after.
Plus using a rattlegun on bigend bolts and imagine trying to teach them torque to yield head bolts. Oh and never seen new frost plugs going in either, but they work with what they have.
Keep up the good work.
You’ll probably find that the people making shot in the dark comments have probably never run a bath never mind a business.👍
Excellent... A reaction video that is not total out and out theft of it.. Well done. A bit more of a shout out to their channel with a link in your description would make it perfect.
Lots of similar channels where they rebuild what seems impossible or where you think is it worth the effort to do that. I guess cheap labour helps fix things most people would throw away.
Saying Good Morning, Afternoon or Evening makes zero difference. If you make it in the Morning say that, I tend to watch at 2am or 3am so it is Morning. Just happens that its 9pm today.
have a friend in australia that ouns and runs big plant in the mines and has for the last 30 years has sent engines to India to get rebuilt even down to getting creaks in heads and blocks welded up
You could cut the heads off the head bolts as aliment studs or studs to get the head gasket set up.
To get around the no dowel issue...cut the heads off some old bolts hacksaw a slit in them for a flat head screwdriver so you can wind them back out...put 2 cut down bolts in slide the head gasket over then slide the head over 👍
I agree with the we are not perfect but at least we learn to our mistake.
Brilliant. I have found them and now subscribed. Hours of crazy to watch. A few cringe moments when sledgehammers are near heads on the cat 966D video. Thank you. PS I am a girl who has restored classic and vintage motorbikes and owned classic cars.
Haters are always going to hate, when someone if hating on you then it is usually because you're doing better than them. Keep doing what you're doing
I have always said that here repairers will generally change a whole electrical unit whereas in India, or Pakistan, there will be a backstreet engineer with a soldering iron who will replace the faulty component, such as a capacitor, for pennies.
Not exactly a Ford assembly Line....
But with primitive Tools Very Very
Impressive.... With Theses people" At extremely intelligent at their Job"
I admire there commitment to work in UK health and safety would have a field day but they always get the job done and in use for another million miles of hard work
I love watching Pakistani truck, they really do some graft.
I like this format of objectively giving your feedback without roasting them.
Great Video. Regarding your injury, are you good with this being played to apprentices as an example? I instruct and don't have anything to show them as good as you did.
I've watched a lot of these... now it seems a little more common for torque wrenches to be used, but that also depends on the particular 'garage/workshop'. I have seen one where the "boss" supervised down to the installation and then did that himself, pistons, rings(no spreader) , and heaps of fresh oil... and after the 'boys' had done the big ends, mains etc up he then redid all with the (obviously his pride and joy) torque wrench which was actually a very late model digital affair..surprising...
That video is of one of the most sophisticated operations on the channel.
What impress's me is how they do all that work wearing Flip flops
These gentlemen that work in Pakistan I'm very impressed because of their work environment and very little things they have it's amazing of the products that they produce and repair you want an engine built you got it you want your headlights restored not a problem you want to custom one off cab for your truck they got you covered for what Little pay they get and for what safety equipment they have they do some great work
Great work on the Chanel. I’ve worked in customer service for many years so can fully appreciate what you’re up against. I wouldn’t say you have many issues. Many of these have been mentioned before. I think the Vauxhall VXR has been mentioned in 3-4 videos. Haters always going to hate. Keep doing what you’re doing, I think most of us really appreciate it
Cause your on you tube they think moaning will probably provide a discount
@@russellsprout5443 lol,
That's his lounge you talking about , no dust and That's there safety boots. They no to keep their toes and hand out of the way lol.
That was pretty damn good
for those of us in the states its often the next morning so I never thought of the good morning / afternoon greeting lol
When I done my engine reconditioning apprenticeship we had a newen g2 and every 12 months we would strip it down and replace the pneumatic struts and main clamping springs and clean it's internals for the centralizing sphere until it was absolute spotless (laboratory spotless) it was an awesome machine we used carbide pilots and the accuracy of this machine was incredible.
On numerous occasions I had to machine valve seats on brand new cylinder heads to set the valve heights and the vac test was pretty average 75%-80% and when machining the seats the first touch you could see how far out the seats are machined from factory and after machining them the vac test is 95% to 100% and often that 5% is usually the clearance in the valve guide which does play havock when you are working with .500" thick valve stems. How them Pakistani's get away with their work practices is astonishing especially with the lack of tooling they are making do with.
I'm watching this in the morning!
I bought a "bought as seen" Mk.2 Zephyr 6 with a rough running engine in about 1975, and the engine fault turned out to be what I had guessed it was - burnt out exhaust valves. After repairing the head I thought I should use a torque wrench to bolt it back on, but they were very expensive back then. I went to a nearby truck repair garage, part of a big local company which owned several main dealerships, BMC, Jaguar and RR. to see if I could borrow or hire the tool. I figured they would always use torque wrenches for diesel truck engines, but not so because the mechanics didn't even know what a torque wrench was but one of them sent me to the foreman's office. The foreman actually had one in his filing cabinet and was more than happy to lend it to me on trust for free. When fixed that engine was smooth and purred like a pussycat, so much so that it prompted the MOT tester to offer me up to twice the market value to buy the car off me. No way was I going to part with it after putting my blood sweat and tears into fixing the engine, sorting the carb, and fixing a number of MOT issues.
