Great to see progress on the old girl, Browney! I had to change the pump in my wagon and that was a mission, as it’s mounted in the side and spills fuel everywhere (even when empty as possible).
@@BrowneysGarage our 1998 Hilux was much the same with the tub covering the tank. Had to drop the whole thing out (mounted longways) and I could barely get my hand in between the chassis rail to unplug the connector. Would rather do the EB again any day, even if it meant having buckets of fuel around making me dizzy 😂
I have done the EL BBM upgrade it makes it easier to get the dizzy in & out I’ve found.. currently dealing with a gremlin in the master cylinder, excess air /vacuum leak causing old Oscar to stall randomly
I can remember changing the fuel pump on my mum's EBII and it was a pain in the ass. Even a direct replacement fuel pump needed some slight mods to install as it was not identical to OEM. I still have the car and love it. I drove it today and still goes hard for an old car. Select the T-bar switch from eco to power and she goes! Awesome work and nice ED!
Looking forward to this project. It's nice to see an affordable car being built too. Excellent work getting the brakes up to scratch. Seems to be one of the later jobs done on a lot of other channels.
Oh the brakes are still well under done on these, but they're functional at least now! 🤣 Not sure if it would have appeared in this video anyway but new calendar won't be up in videos until next or the one after that, some of this footage is a month or so old... but it is up! Thanks again
It wasn’t wasted time if your fans enjoy it lol 😂 I’m following the build for my bf falcon and I love the easy going nature of your channel, you are definitely to hard on yourself
My brakes were shit on my eb from sitting for years before I got it.i bought seal kits did them and while doing that I realized the sliders were siezed.cleaned up and regreased now thre mint wearing evenly pulling up nice and straight 👌 good brakes
well done ive recently done brakes on an ed replaced everything just like you but found it was the abs unit under the left front guard lucky i had a spare problem solved i enjoyed you video thank you
@@leroybrown6946 Nothing wrong with that, there's a hell of a lot more support for the Barra, especially with how old the SOHC engines are getting. Plenty of people using them for some very good reasons.
It does seem a bit of an odd way to mount the pump, believe the filter does reach the bottom of the tank though. The bottom corner of the pump I'm fairly sure ends up near the bottom of the tank and filter wraps just below that.
I hate UA-cam at the moment. Why have I stopped being suggested your videos? Wtf I had to manually search your channel thinking you stopped uploading. Hopefully my comment and thumbs up does something to tickle the algorithm

Ouch, no thanks! Up there with some of the utes that pretty much need the tray removed to do it.

If you put an EL inlet manifold on the old girl it will improve the response and low end torque, it is a simple upgrade modification
I’m interested to actually put that to the test one day. Will be a shame though cause I do much prefer the look of the earlier manifold it has now.

Great to see ya back mate 👍 look forward to your trials and tribulations with the eb.
Sure it has some tricks up the sleeve for me yet! Thanks mate.

Makes me feel better about the work I put in to get the 255 installed then. Thanks mate, they're great cars!
Good to see the EB getting brought back to life. Looks like it has the bones to become one a classic henry.

The council blue tongue hahahahah love your vid’s man
🤣 Glad someone enjoyed it, I spend far too long on dumb 2 second jokes like that some times!

I’m loving the old ed videos as I own a mint condition EL classic and my ba and bf turbo
Keep up the good videos and good vibes
Top work Browney give me something to watch before getting on the beers and snags for Straya day down the pub🤣👍🍻
Cracker day for it, enjoy mate.
Well done Browney good job😁😁
Thanks John!

Always entertaining and informative
Thanks mate, glad people are enjoying the videos still!
Get ready to replace those brake hoses soon too! I had mine made by a local brake shop and they were heaps cheaper than OE
Not a bad idea. There's a company that do braided replacements, something for later on I think.
@@BrowneysGarage yes,don't bother with rubber.get the safebrake braided lines,cheap safety upgrade.
well done ive recently done brakes on an ed replaced everything just like you but found it was the abs unit under the left front guard lucky i had a spare problem solved i enjoyed you video thank you
Gunna be nice watching this one Browny
Great video, there, mate.
From William.
Great start mate I'm a big fan of ebs
Top work, Browney. Also a good watch, I'm slowly getting my EF falcon back onto the road
Thanks mate. Would be great to see more of the E Series getting about again, good luck with it.
@@BrowneysGarage I know I'll get some flack, I'm doing a barra swap

@Browney's Garage I've had some quick NA sohc/intech but time to go quicker in a turboed barra in an EF
Enjoying the work on Monty. Are you able to tell me where you got the clear side indicator lenses from please ?Cheers
Man i wish i had that garage lol
I was the same, now I have it it’s quickly filled up and I wish I had more, or at least a higher roof for a lift! Beats working the the dirt though.
@@BrowneysGarage Haha yeh more stuff to store! i got a single car garage with a ED XR6 Manual in it. Outside is my project, AU XR8 flat tray
Awesome cars bro. She looks good to
Thanks mate. As always they’re a lot rougher in person but I love them anyway 🤣
@@BrowneysGarage Yep lol
At 10:33, correct me if I am wrong, has the exhaust got an unplugged bung? Or is there something plugging it that can't be seen on camera?
Oxygen/Wideband sensor was getting in my way when painting near and under the booster. Was replaced before running 👍
Do E falcons have strange fuel tanks? Or is the strainer filter going to not pick fuel up because its 100mm off the bottom due to being 45deg
It does seem a bit of an odd way to mount the pump, believe the filter does reach the bottom of the tank though. The bottom corner of the pump I'm fairly sure ends up near the bottom of the tank and filter wraps just below that.
@@BrowneysGarage just dont run it low on fuel and it wont be an issue. Just seems so wrong haha

Seems to happen here and there, maybe I upset the UA-cam overlords! Fingers crossed for the next one and thanks for watching along mate 👍
I'll just have to start leaving a comment on every video 😅
Or a dad joke?.. 🤣
