This was so satisfying! The timing belt change on these were a literal 10 minute job. I did it in a suit once on my way to a funeral. We got there in good time, and my hands barely got dirty xD
@@robloxfan4271 It was a very old lady. The grand mother of my gf at the time in 1992. She had been very ill for a long time, so it was by no means unexpected. I never knew her as she lived far away from us. Barely met her once. But of course. There is nothing jolly about a funeral, who ever and how ever it is. So thanks.
Changing the timing belt is the first thing i would've done, knowing it's at least 17 years old it could crack once the engine fires up. Doesn't cost much and is quite easy to change on a car like this.
External timing belts are better than internal timing chains in my opinion. I say this because my old car had a timing chain which broke. It was more expensive to repair than the value of the car, so it obviously ended up in the junkyard. Although a metal timing chain may seem more durable, it’s more difficult to repair or replace when it fails, necessitating complete disassembly of the engine. As for an external timing belt, it may be more susceptible to failure, but it’s outside the engine, and so even a novice mechanic could change it in a flash.
@@MrSupercar55 Also depends on the manufacturer. There are some in which timing chain is practically indestructible and there are some in which guides/tensioners fail before 100k km. But yeah, I can do my timing belt, but honestly, I wouldn't even bother with a chain, especially if it's from the firewall side.
VW Golf/Rabbit VI 1.6l 4cyl before downsizing: no changing interval available for timing belt by default/factory or found in instruction manual. It is possible to make those.
After 17 years of standing, that engine sounds very good, one more proof of how good the Volkswagen turbodiesel is, without today's electronics. without particle filters etc.
I can confirm... i still drive my 2003 Passat b5.5 1.9 TDI 131 hp everyday, engine is PERFECT, and that's why I'll NEVER sell this car till his death.. it has "only" 300.000km 😅
Coming back here 2 years later. Damn, 10 million freaking views, congratulations Flexiny!!! Very well deserved. I hope at least 1% of the people who watched realized that it's worth at least trying to save the good, old reliable machines. Myself got 2 1.9 TDI B4 Passats now, one ironically might be disassembled due to condition but who knows... I'll not give it away to scrapper without a fight. And even if the body itself goes to scrap, I'm pulling every single part out of it to keep the other alive haha.
My parents had the 1.6td motor in a '90 saloon when I was younger. The car went on forever, great characterful motor and lovely refined drive. Turbo lag was dramatic so you had to work the box to get it (and keep it) spooled up, but for a 1.6 diesel lump in a big, heavy car it wasn't bad at all. '80s/'90s VW diesels are highly underrated, I have the straight six D24TIC motor in one of my Volvo 940 estates, and it's a beast of a machine.
My grandfather had this Passat B3 model in Europe, passed it on to my dad so he could drive to work, then my dad passed it on to me 12 years ago so I could learn to drive. The car still runs and has over 450K KMs. I wish VWs were made like this these days. Their modern quality has degraded along with many other European brands, not just because of unreliable and overcomplicated engineering, but mostly because of political corruption and financial greed.
What a great little video, worked on Volkswagen products for nearly 30 years, though all gone in England now B3's seemed to hewn from granite...this is sort of like an old pharaoh being coaxed back to life hahaha
I thought before that Toyotas have more chances to survive through decades, but now am sure Passat B3 is the champion! I work in the car shop in Russia, and were still servicing more than 10 of those in our small town, and they are all good drives. Mostly petrol ones, 1800 and 2000 cc's, but their state after 30+ yearsof hard exploitation is just amazing!
The whole time I was watching the engine attempting to start I was chanting "COME ONNNN COME ONNNN" because it's very satisfying when it eventually starts. It reveals the true character of the car. The sound of the exhaust and the way things spin in the engine bay.
Perfected my manual transmission skill in my friend's '94 Passat before buying my own 2002 Volkswagen Jetta in 2007. Owned the 2002 Jetta from 2007 to 2011. Probably one of my favorite cars from the 2000's.
Passat B3 GT 1.8 16V here! (KR engine code) with 136HP from 1989. 270000 Km and still running strong. Very well equipped: front and rear power windows, electric sunroof, ABS, A/C, power steering, electric heated door mirrors, trip computer, fog lights and alloy wheels. No intention to sell or scrap it!
Ich find das so krass. Die Motoren sind echt für die Ewigkeit gebaut. Mein Erstes Auto war ein Golf 3 1.9 Saugdiesel. Habe das Auto geliebt! Leider wäre das heute nicht mehr möglich ein Auto der heutigen Generation nach 17 Jahren zu starten 😂. Geiles Video!!!!!!
Alte Autos sind super, besonders die VW, gebaut für die Ewigkeit! Mein erstes Auto war ein 2er Golf, ich hab ihn sehr geliebt, gestartet bei der ärgsten Kälte, immer
I had one brand new in 1990.....a Tornado Red Passat with 1.6 litre Umvelt Turbo Diesel Engine. One of the best cars I ever drove........it was bulletproof. You could drive it carefully, you could thrash it at high speed on a motorway and it would still return the same fuel economy, whatever. The build quality was as if the car had been carved out of a block of Granite. Amazing vehicle.
i found my old one just like this, it was sitting for 8 years just like that, ran and drove, aside from the stuck doors and windows all running and working
Back when bosses did not have to put much in design, because real men shit on design and open the hood. But feminists have created hate to everything what stands for men. Equality is a one way road. If you don't agree, look up your rights as a father, if the decides to say just no. Look it up very closely. Very equal. But go ahead raise boys without a father. Cause we need more of Habeck, Hofreiter and Roth. True experts of their game and rightfully in the Upper-class of the country. This are people who are the living proof of failure of some illusions... Listen to Claudia Roth and what an amount of pure crap and lies she told over the years. She once stated to be sexually assaulted by a man. Sure look up this beauty surely everyone wants to share his bed with. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Feelings and reality seem to give the women big trouble. They will show it almost everytime, if they don't get their will or you forefit yours. But they feel morality wise so much in top of every man for all the men did to they women over the last million years. True winner mentality and a great character to show for a person in administrative and leading positions, like manager. Never seen a women demand a job at court for a construction company. But women exactly know, when to play which card. They even lie on little things just to get it quiet. Says a lot about the character on that...

@Stimpy&Ren don't know much about cars eh? VWs that are over 25 years old (regardless when that may be) are cash cows and will make someone a nice amount of cash. Either original or as Id suspect, a custom rebuild job. Especially Estates. The surfer / hipsters will love this. Just look at the last era to go nuts. . The mk 1 Caddy is now a very very expensive vehicle when only 5 or so years ago you could buy them for less than a grand. Now a nice one is over 10k. People love em.
@Stimpy&Ren you missed the point. A car like this has a ridiculous to some(you) massive market and people pay crazy money for old Vdubs. And 29.years old is bang on the money. It could have a lawn mower lump and people will still go crazy for them.
I live in Kazakhstan, the city of Petropavlovsk, and we have a lot of B3 and Audi 80 trade winds. We love these cars for their reliability and cheap service. And the Russian car industry is just bullshit.
Great video I just got a 1.6td Jetta that was sitting for 20 years! Only thing I'd recommend to people is before turning engine over lubricate the cylinders first and run a fuel line to a bottle before using the old fuel tank filter and lines until you can confirm they are clean!
Good old Passat. Drags itself back from the muddy grave, with trees growing through the rear wheels, all the time while idling, as well as it did new. How is that even possible?
German cars of the 80s and 90s will work hundreds of years later (unless fossil fuels are depleted!) The engine started with just a few simple tools and a few liters of oil. If the current automobile covered with electronic devices is left unattended for 17 years, it will cost expensive repairs. Parts needed for repair would also have been discontinued. This is why cars like this are still so popular in many countries :) The 2020 Tesla will probably be in the junkyard around 2035! Hahaha
Having the same model and motor years ago, unbreakable and reliable. Sold with 335.000km for some bucks. I actually have a new turbo intercooler for this 1.6td
i owend a 92 B3 with the 1.8l Engine and 75 HP. Up to 700 Miles a tank. Engine last forever, the rest rusted sadly away....... There was space in it like a Boeng 747. Absolutly georgeus....

@@jirka87 i mind diesel ARL 110kw and FR 125kw and biger TDI .but yesTFSI is perfekc but im like TDI you know we all like somethyng diferent
Love these videos. Makes me want to go buy an old non runner just so I can get it started up.
Yeah, it is so amazing how old Diesel engine can start..
And get millions of views unlike my videos that get 14 views
Brings back memories for sure, thank you for getting these memories back to life! I wonder if this engine would last on the new bio diesel from Neste My, my 1.9 tdi A6 from 2004 runs really well on it with less 'polution'
I had that too. a very comfortable, stable and tireless vehicle. I gave it up with a heavy heart. mine was 19 and had... nothing but his age! those were cars! @VW
I started today my '93 Polo G40 after eleven years sitting in the garage...those engines are unbeatable...
Old engineering from all brand is same
this video it's just something magical! always loved vw old diesel engines, i have one of the first tdi, the 90HP 1Z engine, and i love it!
75 hp
@@mod_y84 No TDI 1Z, AHU etc. is 90 hp

I like the spider running down the intake! WTF is going on here! Been nice and quite for 17 years! 😂
One of the most satisfying videos on UA-cam.
its for sure burning oil... but i cant believe you managed to start it ! awesome man!
When the world has moved over fully to electric cars, I shall be able to show this and similar videos to my children and grandchildren, and give them a taste of how it was 'back in the day'!
I had the 1.6td Golf , 1991 H reg mk2 red , same engine as passat , for 7 years ,i enjoyed having it ,friend had the same as this passat , j reg in red they fadded in colour slightly but great runners ,spent more time driving than every any repairs
Those old Diesels never die
@Stimpy&Ren don't know much about cars eh? VWs that are over 25 years old (regardless when that may be) are cash cows and will make someone a nice amount of cash. Either original or as Id suspect, a custom rebuild job. Especially Estates. The surfer / hipsters will love this. Just look at the last era to go nuts.
. The mk 1 Caddy is now a very very expensive vehicle when only 5 or so years ago you could buy them for less than a grand. Now a nice one is over 10k. People love em.
@Stimpy&Ren u are stupid, 1.6 diesel was a most reliable engine in the world, easy milion on the dash
Stefan fiste very true. Regular maintenance and you‘re golden
@Stimpy&Ren you missed the point. A car like this has a ridiculous to some(you) massive market and people pay crazy money for old Vdubs. And 29.years old is bang on the money. It could have a lawn mower lump and people will still go crazy for them.
@Stimpy&Ren My friend Paul literally owns 3 but okay lol
I live in Kazakhstan, the city of Petropavlovsk, and we have a lot of B3 and Audi 80 trade winds. We love these cars for their reliability and cheap service. And the Russian car industry is just bullshit.

What a beautiful nature is this.
Great video I just got a 1.6td Jetta that was sitting for 20 years! Only thing I'd recommend to people is before turning engine over lubricate the cylinders first and run a fuel line to a bottle before using the old fuel tank filter and lines until you can confirm they are clean!
Solid car, solid engine. Brilliant era of automotive

What a fabulous sound in the end
Still grt engine
Beautiful car design and legendary engine.
we had the same one in mint green metallic. It was a GL model running on gasoline with 90HP. very nice car. I will never forget it.
Машины надёжные и честные . В Беларуси таких много варенных, переваренных на хорошем ходу. Бережем их...
I still drive my 2001 VW Passat automatic every month 750 km from Slovakia to Germany an it still runs well,
750km monthly? Mines B5FL 1.9TDi runs 2000km each month. I already depleted 4 batteries...
@@maciejos78 i know people who drive with 1.9 tdi passat 2000 km in 3 days.
@@Scrim3301 I absolutelly believe you. Those engines are really ethernal.
@@maciejos78 yes, no wonder why it’s legendary in ex Yugoslavian countries. 1.9 TDI is the best VW Diesel engine ever built
Currently an owner of 2 diesel cars. A BMW 328d F30 and a VW Tiguan 2 .0 TDI 2014. Love them ❤
Good old Passat.
Drags itself back from the muddy grave, with trees growing through the rear wheels, all the time while idling, as well as it did new.
How is that even possible?
German cars of the 80s and 90s will work hundreds of years later (unless fossil fuels are depleted!)
The engine started with just a few simple tools and a few liters of oil. If the current automobile covered with electronic devices is left unattended for 17 years,
it will cost expensive repairs. Parts needed for repair would also have been discontinued.
This is why cars like this are still so popular in many countries :)
The 2020 Tesla will probably be in the junkyard around 2035! Hahaha
@Trxsh I don't like Tesla either. I would rather ride a bicycle. There is no maintenance fee :)
In germany we say wir können gut Autos bauen 😁

Yea u are right lol
Una máquina total. God bless Volkswagen
7:45 When the engine try to start, it looks like it says "BLYAT MAMA!" XD
Passat B3 are bulletproof! I own a 1993 B3 Varriant (Station Wagon) 1.8 90 HP gasser. Nice cheap easy to maintain!
Having the same model and motor years ago, unbreakable and reliable.
Sold with 335.000km for some bucks. I actually have a new turbo intercooler for this 1.6td
It would bring a tear to my eye if I found a car that did that. Shoutout to the tractor guy.
17:04 WTF? 315212 Km and has been parked 17 Years... this car has some life
What a lovely sound this engine makes!
I love how they (b3 Passat) have almost no grill, but newer cars have grills the size of the actual car
great job!
Looks solid after sitting for awhile. I previously owned a 93 B3 passat wagon VR6.
i owend a 92 B3 with the 1.8l Engine and 75 HP. Up to 700 Miles a tank. Engine last forever, the rest rusted sadly away.......
There was space in it like a Boeng 747. Absolutly georgeus....
