Stripping The Trotter Van 600cc Engine (Reliant Regal)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 тра 2024
- In this video I remove the oil pump, distributor drive, crank and camshaft from the Trotter van engine so I can take it to the engineering shop to be rebored. This is the 600cc Reliant Regal engine and I am hoping to fit 700cc pistons in it.

I have waited years for you to get back on the trotter van
Lovely to see you working on the Trotter van, I sold my Trotter van due to bad health
hope you gave your grandson some attention they grow up so fast and all time with them is precious!
Can’t wait to see the new work shop getting built
Can’t wait to see the Robin driving up the road, followed its progress for years. We had plastic pigs for years when I was a nipper before Dad passed his test 👍
So glad you’re back on the trotter van
My husbands friend Ian Nixon had the original trotter van and the Capri Ghia , I sat in that was very fluffy 😂😂😂
Great to see you on the tools again Martin, little Franks coming on a treat 👍
I have been waiting years for this trotter van, pleased your back on it
Great to see you getting oily in the log cabin again. Great to see little Frank getting involved.
Take care, Jeff
Thanks Jeff Frank is the foreman.👍
Can’t wait to see trotters van back on road
Great job Martin. Good to see wee Frank keeping you on your toes!
Glad to see your back on this project.
Looking forward to this engine rebuild Martin, and Jimmy's wedding 👍
martin nice to see you working for a change..😁😁😁😁
Spot on Martin good to see you back on it again and it won't be long before baby Frank is helping you 👍👍👍👍
Redoing the whole engine will make a night and day difference. Great update video, Martin.
Looking forward to this engine build👍
I always bag up bits and write on them, so if I’m not at work a colleague knows what goes where. Baby frank is not so baby now he is getting taller and chatty. Great video Martin keep up the good work 👍
Always a pleasure watching you work your magic Martin.
Many thanks
Nice one Martin. Modern engines still get sludged up it's called lack of servicing.
I’ve waited years for this to be done. I was going to try and buy it . For my son’s wedding. He is now married with a daughter. So maybe Martin. When it’s finished. I’ll still trying and buy it off you. For my granddaughter wedding. 😂
Haha 😄
Wow there is some gunk in there. Tap and turn , i will remember that one. Well done finding the pin. If i drop stuff its normally gone for ever lol. Very interesting video Martin. Catch you in the next installment .
Thanks neil👍
fascinating stuff Martin, love these videos
Looking forward to seeing the rebuild.Please be careful though on reassembly Martin,as at the ends of the bridge pieces that you removed from either end of the block there are little tiny cork packing pieces.
These are often overlooked and disposed of.You should get new ones with your new gasket kit.Please dont inadvertently chuck them away thinking they are just part of the packing for the new kit......
brilliant martin, glad your back on the tools.
Always enjoy watching your repair videos watching from South Africa
Love your engine skills, Baby Frank become Hulk Frank, still drive a Corsa C after a complete engine rebuild with Martin on the laptop😁👍
Happy Days Martin good to see you back in the Log Cabin cracking on with the Trotter van
Really interesting vid Martin, looking forward to the next in the series mate
Thanks Phil.👍
Nice one Martin 👍
Looking forward to this rebuild Martin m8
I watched a video years back, the original trotter van was auctioned and it went for £38,000. That sludge was probably because of mineral oil and never been serviced, synthetic oils are a lot better and contain detergents to keep the engine cleaner.
Great stuff.
That was a messy job but looking good 👍🏻👍🏻
Done a few of them in my time . Used to have Reliant Rolls Regal super van ..
An impact screwdriver works well Martin , the one you hit with an hammer , nice video bud , gave you a shout-out earlier 👍
Thanks for that
Like the background music👍
👍 thanks for the video
Excellent job stripping the engine ❤
It will be cool to watch the rebuild on this
The block should clean up nicely. The engine it'self looks easy to carry as well.
great job lad next video please
love the oily stuff
Great video Martin it’s hard to believe the amount of oil sludge in that engine
if your going to the trouble of a rebore and pistons ,may as well get valve guides and new hardened valve seats run on unleaded worth pricing it when you go to machine shop
Enjoyed that my first car was a reliant regal then a Robin I got them from Cropleys just outside of Boston only had a motorbike license they got me all over the country. When I got a car passed my test without lessons with all the driving I'd done in those. That was only 30 Yr ago wish I'd kept the Regal
Thanks for sharing
Yesssssssssssssss can't wait
Nice.
Have you thought about returning the van to factory instead of a trotter van considering how many are out there, could be worth more money that way, just a thought! Love the content 👍
There's only about 35 on the road in the whole of the UK so very rare.
Will be done by 2030!
How on earth do you remember ware all the screws and bolts go when reassembling
Hiya you said your do a video on putting the electric windows.
I bought some for my transit mk7
And I will be fitting them soon.
Was it straight forward.
Butlers is ok for easy watch but defo prefer the normal bloke doing a bit in his shed
What do you mean "normal bloke"?
@@retrorestore not in a big massive workshop just like myself messing about in the shed relaxing
@@barryjones6214 but I am a normal bloke.
