Barn Find Fergie. Episode 10. How To Time An Engine
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 жов 2024
- In this episode the lads demonstrate how to time an engine and how to set tappet spacings on their old school vehicle. They also manage to squeeze in some cake based discussions.
This project follows the restoration of a Barn Find 1953 Ferguson TEF 20 Little Grey Fergie. This vintage tractor was found in a hedge where it had sat for 31 years. Can Jimmy de Ville (from Goblin Works Garage) and Gav (former RAF engineer) bring it back to life using their engineering, building, fabrication and make do and mend skills?
There might be extreme, dangerous and crazy measures needed to breath life back into this retro, vintage vehicle and once farming extreme machine.

Just superb, these episodes are so enjoyable. Why can't all restoration shows be like this? Exactly the right amount of fun, instruction and entertainment, well does chaps
Yup 👍🏻 second that ! Great vids.
Thats very kind, thanks for being a part of it!
Thanks very much Stuart, glad you’re enjoying it👍
Fergie Thursday going fortnightly is a good thing. It means the series will last longer going through the winter months. That's got to be a good thing. And another great episode with great engineering and great banter. Great stuff Chaps
Cheers Tony! We're glad you're not too upset!
Jimmy de Ville's Garage every cloud and all that Jimmy 😎
Thank you Tony👍
Gav a big mac meal and burger chaser! Guess you must have earned it. Another great installment.🍔🍔🍔🍟🍟🍟
Cheers Peter. Mmmmmm burgers!
I’m a growing lad! Well my waistline is😂
@@montydog0 can relate to that.
OMG you get me addicted to this Fergie fix/drug, and now I have to go cold turkey for 2 weeks instead of 1 😭. Keep up the great work lads 👍👍👍👍👍🏁
We hope you understand!
@@Torquestamiya
Totally understand mate, it's so damned good I could watch it every day at least. Brilliant series of videos, you are Gav are hilarious and I like the innuendos that you drop subtly into each episode, it reminds me of a carry on sketch 🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🏁
Are you doing a new series of Goblin Garage at all?
Take care lads 👍🏁
Cheers bud👍
That note was brilliant! Hat off to whoever wrote it.
It really is a wonderful thing!!!
Genius
I generally use a smear of grease to keep the rocker cover gasket in place whilst fitting the cover. No idea if that's ok to do but it works for me. Still no dancing, not even a little jig to that music. I can only live in hope you're practising your moves for the final episode. Can't wait. Great vids.
Gav best be planning to bring his A game! We used the odd dab of grease too!
It wouldn’t be pretty, I’m probably considered more ‘Dad Dancing’ league these days I’m afraid 😟
Oh yeah! It's Fergie thursday! Fist pump! ✊🚜❤
Back at you!
👍
Great episode 👍👍👍can’t believe it’s going to be 2 weeks till the next exciting episode 👍👍👍
We hope you understand Denis!
Hang in there Denis, hopefully it will be worth waiting for!😁
A great project sensitively done. Well done lads.
Cheers, we're really pleased you appreciate our aproach
Thanks, feels like the right way to approach this old girl👍
@@montydog0 Looking forward to the next episode in a couple of weeks. Try a Morrisons Tiramisu.
Great episode again Gav and Jimmy, happy to wait two weeks, go earn some crust!!!
Cheers Chap!
Thanks Col👍
Gav was salivating at the thought of his mum`s Victoria sandwich. I would debate that is the best in the world because I thought my mum makes the best in the world. More proof please. Brilliant episode, you work really well together, really enjoyable to watch. No problem with bi-weekly, the content is always worth waiting for.
Great to hear! We definitely need proof, it was big talk!!!
Great work again.
Our pleasure!
Many thanks
Nice to see you fellas and the Fergie back again!

Well lads another fantastic episode. Yas have been a great help as I'm in the middle of a fergie engine rebuild when I went to take off my timing chain I noticed it has a split link in it leaves it handier getting it off and on. Keep up the work lads
Ours doesn't seem to???
A split link would have been handy
@@montydog0 I'll take a photo of mine and put it up for yas to see
Well done chaps. Great fun, you've nailed a great show
Thanks Geoff, we're glad you like it.
Cheers mate👍
Hello hello thank s I was looking for this for many days
Thanks lads
Am still here Jimmy & Gav hope you're well. Glad to hear that you are getting a bit more work in now yeah I understand what you mean as I am content creator myself it does take a while to edit it all out. And if you have other job's thing's can get on top of you. That was good timing lol.😂 Another great episode mate's.
Glad you understand mate, surprising how much time it hoovers up!👍
Great vid guys stay safe 👍
Cheers Andy!
Thanks👍
Coming on nicely ☺️ great spot of luck having the inspection cover in the parts bin! First thought was it was rusted up NOS part 😁
Check out Episode 3, you can see us find it, hahahaha
It’s always those little extra nuts, bolts and bits that are worth their weight in gold👍
Ah yes, I forgot about that 😁 slept since E3 😅
I've bought an entire donor vehicle for one or two hard to find parts before 😂
Just caught this. So addictive. Absolutely no engineering or restoration background, but love these type of shows. Your episodes are well put together with great music - who chose those soundtrack? Looking forward to completing the series and watching the Fergie run - fingers crossed. Thanks you two for the great work.
Thanks Gordon. We chose it and some lovely people created it for us.
After seeing your post n social media I decided to check the series out. I’m hooked, I had to binge watch from the beginning. Now subscribed and waiting for the next episode.
Only downside.....I’m now heading over to eBay to look at tractors.
Keep up the good work guys
Glad to hear Dan, great to have you along for the ride! They are something different and great things!
Great video once again guys!
Thanks, loving your name!
Another great episode guys. Stupid question time! Would putting grease on the shaft help the pulley install or is this a no-no? Looking forward to 2 weeks time 👍😊
Grease away! We used oil, it was just gripping on the key way a little.
A bit of lube never hurt anybody!
Hi guys enjoying the build, long time since I was working as a mechanic (40 years) but I think your timing should be set at TDC on No1 cylinder on the firing/compression stroke if I remember correctly you could find the injector pump delivering into a cylinder with open inlet/exhaust valves. Hope this helps.
Thanks Andrew, that's great information!
Didn't realise you had a youtube channel jimmy big fan so i subbed👍
Great to have you a long for the journey Karl, you've got some catching up to do!
very good , interesting as alway, Had to timing my 35 when i put new head on, bit nerve racking
Yep, nobody likes a bent valve!
You can use the "rule of nine" for setting tappets on a 4 cyl engine. When valve 1 is fully open, set gap on 8 (1+8=9), when valve 2 is fully open, set gap on 7 (2+7=9) and so on
That's a great bit of advice! Now I just need to improve my maths, hahahaha
Excellent tip👍
Excellent as usual. How far from firing it up are you?
Not far now👍
She's getting there guys, bit concerned with Jimmy's feeler gauges being "old and worn" must have lost a few thou over the years, better than my set though, where I once tried to set tappets on a HA Vauxhall viva with the engine running, per the manual, and ended up with feelers like crumpled kitchen foil!🙄
With it running!!!! Wow, that would be worth a watch!
@@Torquestamiya
Yes - the pushrod Viva engine. It didn't have a rocker shaft; the rockers were cupped pressings which pivoted on a self-locking nut with a hemisperical lower surface, screwed onto a stud pressed into the head. As the adjuster nut was stationary it was easy to adjust the tappets with the engine running allegedly 😂 gave up and did it stationary in the end
Sounds like fun!
Theres a hell af a lot of wear on those sprockets. The fuel pump one especially
She's had a tough life, that's for sure!
Because I live in The States, I deal with both metric and Imperial (what we call SAE) fasteners all the time. All standard Imperial nuts and bolts have a metric spanner size that will fit them.
Hello! When put timing cover on how do you know that chain tensioner is in correct position? and how do you know when chain is in correct tension? I have same kind project and I fixed camshaft keyway, because that was worn out.
Hello again what can I do to get the new timing chain Timing tensioner you know timing kit
Always good to refer to the Manual! I must get myself one! Where did you get yours?
Send me email I can send you a pdf copy
I can photo copy this one if you like? Or failing that just Nick your brothers copy 😂😂😂
Now now boys!
If you need someone to taste test the Victoria Sponge and Chocolate Brownie look no further 😀
We’ll deffo save you some Tony🍰
👍🇬🇧🙌🚜
👍👍
what about using gascate goo on all gascates
mmmmm.....Victoria Sponge!
Mmmm 🍰
Thanks to me timing

Pause.....Have to consider my options here....🤔 Will i risk going any further into a vid with two guys in a shed, boasting at the start about.......... loads of manual action....😲😱
Well did you???
Stroker, shafts, holes, shafts in/missing holes, coming together.....it just got worse Jimmy 😂🤣 Was it hard to insert this in the vid? Did it just go over Gavs head? 🤣😂
@@JACKATTACKED I couldn't possible know what you mean?
After 22 years in the military I’m immune! The art is in keeping a straight face, if you laugh you’ve lost😆
