Those engine hoists are wonderful until you need to use one just after moving home and find you have dismantled it and half of it is buried under all your moving boxes. I only wanted to lift some old bush roots and bramble roots. Gnarley Gnarley stuff. Feel like I've just finished a course on dentistry given the shape of some of the roots I've just pulled. On a good note my landy started, Hi and low shift available and diff lock , thanks to your'e videos about the remote connections. Mine had sat years without moving so I had to strip and clean and relube all. So I can take it to the new house. Now the Gnarley stuff has been Chipped and chopped away and there's more room to park it. Next project is to rewire the dashboard, '84 110 wiring loom gone brittle. 2"nd time round with the wiring but I'll get there. Ok I might need a sparky for help.
Hi Mike 👋 great video as always thanks for sharing this video update. 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🚌🚌🚌
Mike=einstein today
The paint even looks right.
On the aircraft I work on, at the main seal on the propeller shaft, the same problem exists. What our manual says baffled me the first time but it works.
We heat up the seal in hot oil and then gently work it over the flange, installing the spring afterwards.
The seal goes back into it's original shape and seals the shaft.
Maybe something for a rainy day.
Thanks again for the great video Mike.
Interesting - this seal has no spring!
This is great Mike, last time you built a series engine we never heard it run but I've a feeling we will hear this one
Even I have not heard it running yet!
That pesky raccoon snuck in! 👍🏻🙏🦘
So that's where voltswagon got the idea, then arsed it up! (chain tensioner)
great audio👍
Engine is looking good Mike. Those crank seals had been crank seals too long! Will be good to see it in the S1 and hear it running.
Time consuming but not hard to do once you understand how it works, quite smart really. The camshaft sprocket keyways allows you to get really quite close, slightly advanced is probably better option than slightly retarded to allow for some inevitable stretch and bedding in of timing chain over time.
There's another Series 1 LR IoE engine rebuild happening on the Barum Engines channel.. a bit sporadic, and buried by whingeing but still interesting.
I'm looking forward to this new series. What was up with the scrolling credits at the end of the video? They seem to have frozen up.
Lol! I forgot to hit the scroll button!
If only I could find a better tool for removing crankcase seals etc. Something wider and flatter than a screwdriver.. hmm , I wonder if anyone sells them........😂
I wonder...
LoL!
What is your opinion of the 2.5 L diesel engine? Considering a 1990 low mileage MOD 110. Concerned about highway cruising speed. Thank you.
Not one of the best engines - the military were limited to 50 mph so was OK for them, but watch out for MoD 110 as some were FFR (fitted for radio) and were lower geared to compensate for the extra battery weight they had to carry - these were generally low miles engines, but were usually driven to a hilltop and the engine was run flat out to charge the batteries
