    Please bring the ‘board talks’ back! Can we have more of them?

    These are the videos that I remember you doing long time ago and really enjoy them. Keep doing them. I also enjoyed the videos of analyzing failures on motor components.

    Very interesting, I was curious why I hadn't seen these before. Turns out the 70s 2 stroke Suzuki's I've touched didn't have expander rings but looks like some of the 70s Kawasaki 2 strokes did. I guess some manufacturers used them, some didn't.

    These are still used on the hydraulic feeds on WW2 Hydromatic aircraft propellers which use bronze "piston" rings and therefore have very little spring in them, so need a spring expander.

    I don't suppose you do 'requests' , but I'd like your take on how manufacturers were able to go from (say) 6,000 mile valve clearance check intervals up to 27,000 (in the case of some Yamahas, Ducatis etc)?

    Should i use it? I bought a re-bore kit to use in a 1997 yamaha dt 200r, and the piston kit came with it. I did not use this octagonal ring. Do i have to open and put this between the second ring?

    Not long ago bought a piston kit and I discarded the expander ring without knowing what it was for 😂

    Single ring piston V6 X 2 motors (outboard's) = 12 rings @ $705 each the rings are GOLD plated, ouch!
    If you get a hundred hours out of them you consider yourself very lucky, the price you have to pay to go fast on water is amazing when you want to reach over a hundred miles per hour .🤯

    Editing this tight gives an erratic style that's hard to watch. Other seem to like it, so each to their own I guess. I'm guessing it's automated to remove any pauses in speech, but it stops it feeling natural.

    • @rickyapearman
      @rickyapearman 13 днів тому

      I agree, the jump cuts are very harsh. It’s very distracting.
      I rather have a 10 minute video that doesn’t feel rushed.
      Feels more natural when Matt takes a second to think about how to get a point across in the most logical way.

      Just watched the latest one (I Bought This $18,000 UTV For $3,000. Was It Worth It?)
      First he rips off his fingerprints by sticking them between some gears, then he scalds his face off by removing a Radiator bleed screw.

      I only watched that channel, as I wanted a refresher on bike mechanics, fixing up old engines etc,
      after 5 videos I realised I have learnt everything I could, and now I just needed to unlearn 99.9% of what I had just seen.
