Let's all remember that at 1 point Chris didn't want to be on camera....now he is presenting the videos
GO CHRIS!!!!!
Great stuff guys 👌
Well done Chris your the best !!!!
Chris , the real star of the show.
@@markdowling5162 They both are, it wouldn't work without either of their skillsets
Agree completely, Chris skills are awesome and it’s great to see his confidence infront of the camera now 👍
Since he showed himself in the toilet a new world opened hahah
With TV today so dull and boring, these videos will go from strength to strength.
Totally agree .......t.v still playing movies from the 80s !!!!
Even UA-cams getting boring only look forward to these videos and a few other build channels.
@@yhshah21 yep I know wot u mean 2022 year u tube died.......it got rid of us truthers , that's y !!!!!!
U tube more adds that itv sky n channel 4 put together 🤮🤮🤢🤮🤮🤮🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Indeed, is a question of time until BBC gets Rob and Chris haha
@@organiccold the BBC cud never afford ........Chris n Rob
The info Chris shared about the engine that sucked up water-leading to the cracked cylinder liner was both interesting and an eye-opener. Great stuff..!
Those who drive through 'Rufford Mill Ford' should take heed ;-)
A mate did that with a Renault Espace through a ford years ago, low or bumper sited air intakes or something. The mechanic said "they all do that, sir".
@@WhosPhotoTube I was just thinking the same thing, Rufford Ford videos are a guilty pleasure....
@@richardhine6682 Yes Rufford Ford eats Beemers for breakfast😂
@@WhosPhotoTube I don't think some of the clowns driving through there have any heed to take!!
Chris takes the time to invent something. This is how you recognize a real professional, and then also take the time to explain it properly. It is a pleasure to watch a craftsman at work. Such a video can easily take an hour because it won't get boring.
Chris = master mechanic! He knows his stuff!
Thank you for another educational vid guys ! 👍
i would say more of a engineer than a mechanic
Loved this one
Chris's home made tools are brilliant. Especially as they save time and a lot more disassembly. The schrader valve/glow plug tool is pure genius. That oil had been oil far too long, but I'm glad everything cleaned up. I can't wait to see if it runs, and I can't wait to see the new customs purchase. Top work. 👍
Brilliant ingenuity! It’s what made British engineers the envy of the world. Your ability to overcome these complex engineering headaches with the minimum of fuss is a credit to you both. These videos should be played in schools to help boost the ever dwindling enthusiasm for STEM careers at technician level. Keep it up chaps.
It is such a joy to watch a video like this where camera shy Chris decides he is no longer camera shy and brings us all great knowledge and skill. It is marvellous. Well done Chris. (and of course Rob).
Chris's little discourse on the valve was extraordinary! Who needs Descartes, Derrida and Wittgenstein. Everybody needs a Chris in their life because he can fix anything! Absolutely amazing.
Necessity is the mother of invention , nice one Chris with the valve tool
chris &alan millyard combined could end up being the ultimate engineering experts what a tool to make keep up the top notch videos
Nice shout out to Alan, perfect, another genius in his field.
I don't think it's fair to underestimate the contribution Rob makes, they both contribute content in their own way and that's why it works. Keep up the good work guys.
I genuinely look forward to Monday/Wednesday and Friday evenings just to watch the next one, In the trade myself and love all the videos you guys put out, best channel on UA-cam 💪😎
Wow, these videos just get better each time. I’m no mechanic but I understand what is needed and Chris clearly has a talent for explaining it, very well done, thanks.
Always love it when Chris fabricates custom tooling, the use of the schrader valve was genius!
That’s what you get with someone who knows what they’re doing, explained brilliantly and made the tools as you go along, a lot of know how saves a fortune, if not in money in time alone, let’s hear this Swiss watch purr again 👏👏👏
Unbelievable engineering. Top stuff. My old man was like that. Rest in peace Dad.
Where would the channel be without Chris the magician between bodywork and mechanical side and then you have Rob that always Manages to source a part from somewhere what a team 👏🏻
I barely watch TV now, I find you guys way more interesting and I learn at the same time!
When Chris explains how to do things he makes it so simple for divvys like me to understand
Really interesting seeing the results of a hydro locked engine. I’ve watched loads of videos of cars attempting to cross the ford at Rutherford and failing. Now I know the catastrophic engine failure that’s happening for my entertainment 😂
Thanks Chris 👍
Blooming excellent 👍 I love watching and listening to Chris’s mechanical knowledge, just brilliant 👍👍
A thoroughly enjoyable watch. The level of detail filmed on the repair is outstanding.
Just so impressive to watch, old fashioned mechanics none of this it's broken let's get a new one. Great video Chris and Rob for getting the new parts.
great to see what Chris can actually make from a piece of scrap bar and some bolts etc .another very interesting video guys . loved it ......
Chris for Blue Peter…😂😂😂
Watching the Timelapse of the collet rebuilding was like watching surgery .
Thanks to you both lads, great content.
Engineering genius this is why Britain is great ,great logic Christopher 😉👍🇬🇧
Top job again from Chris. Good to see someone actually engineering solutions.
Of course you can save it , you are like car mending super heros !!!
If the customer put that car into a garage they would want to take the head off and charge a fortune for it. There’s not many Chris’s left now. Well done for another great video.
This has to be the most informative,indepth channel on UA-cam.love it👏👏👏
Are there a better duo on UA-cam?
2 lovable chaps , honest and funny
Love this channel ❤
Chris is an old school engineer if he ain't got the right tool make it.
Love what you guys do.
Thinking Chris needs a few pints.
Really like watching your channel
Absolutely loved the information from Chris!
Genius!
That hydro locked engine was interesting to see!
Many thanks Chris and Rob
Hello Rob and Chris, excellent work by Chris, people who are driving through Rutherford Falls should watch this video to see the damage they are causing to their engine by driving through 3ft of water.
Excellent video. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged
What a mechanic Chris is a mechanical genius respect
Brilliant watching Chris at work, 12.40 it's like watching a surgeon. Well done on getting another customs vehicle, can't wait 😃
Proper old fashioned engineering from Chris and excellent explanation of hydraulic lock,making the tools is proper mechanicing
Really great stuff gentlemen, fantastic detail and workmanship as always. Thank you so much.
That tool to compress the spring is proper thinking outside the box just like I did all my working life well done m8 brilliant engineering thanks
Woop woop Well done Chris. Not only have you saved the day, you saved the engine from being scrapped. 🎉 well done another great video.
Love Chris's ingenuity to solve problems. Great stuff well done
Thanks Chris, I now fully understand what hydralock means and exactly what it is. another school day 👍. As you say, I'm one of the ones who enjoys these engine videos as much as the bodywork ones.
Rob Chris is a genius and talks it through in simple terms what a guy ,Great content guys as usual
Well done Chris! Very clear and very informative.
And I love both your accents. I'm not a Brit, but to me your accents sound really pleasant and relaxed.
Another good video. It is so satisfying to make up your own ''special tools''. I have done so many times and still keep them in case I need them again. Rob and Chris go well together.
Love problem solving. Very clever. Who would have thought a baby gate bolt would do the job👌👌
Great work, great video - how does Chris manage to be such a massive expert on everything? Amazing!
Well done Chris, great explanation and ingenuity to solve problems. Excellent video.
Chris really is an artist of his trade, amazing how he does all these tricks and tips.
It was actually very interesting, and informative to see what happens and engine that takes in water.
Thanks guys ❤
Brilliant simply brilliant, this channel is the reason why I don’t watch TV. Chris what a skill you have buddy. Keep them coming lads
Very enjoyable, both with the improvised tooling and with the hunt for the debris in the sump. It was CSI Salvage Rebuilds today 😁. Now I‘m looking forward to the next part of the BMW quarter panel replacement (plus this new customs seizure). Cheers and thanks to you both for another educational video.👍
I've used a diesel compression tester connection to do this with similar results, love the show and attention to detail
Proper old skool engineering there Chris, cracking result getting the collet back in, boy it needed an oil change, definitely poor maintenance issue here 😜
All the videos are good, but the videos on this engine rebuild have been particularly interesting. I don't fully understand all that is being done, but it is fascinating to see. It is the range of different projects together with the way that the videos are put together and presented that really makes this channel stand out.
Auto technician becomes engineer to salvage car. This is a brilliant repair, well done.
Well done Chris: great bit of improvisation to save the day! Seeing this I'm reminded of how poorly designed the 1.6HDi oil pans are. The sump plug thread is recessed into the sump pressing and, despite the presence of a small drain hole through the thread (which blocks with carbon sludge) it effectively forms a 'bund' to retain oil and crud when the sump plug is removed. In those I've worked on I've drawn them out to remove the bund effect: it reduces ground clearance for the sump but means that crud in the sump stands some chance of draining fully when the sump plug is removed.
so impressive how you explain what happened and us people who are new to the channel love the work you guys do
Did similar on a 214 Rover years ago, used a tube spanner with the side cut out, a loop of rope under the inlet manifold and a long bar that sat on the tube spanner with one end through the rope loop and then leant on the other end to compress the valve spring, held the valves up using a compression tester with its schrader valve removed, screwed into the plug hole and connected to my compressor, did all 16 valve stem seals. Where there's a will, there's a way! 👍
Without a shadow of doubt, one of the best videos you've produced. This one's all praise for Chris, his engineering skills are second to none. Plus, his explanation of what he's doing means that even people with a limited mechanical knowledge can make sense of what he's doing. Pure class.
congrats chris you are the new edd china 2022 ,thanks for all the explanations ,we learn a lot ,regards from uruguay suth america !!!
Chris is defo old school mechanic great video lads . Also the volume on the microphones is spot on . Very enjoyable video
I’m not a mechanic but I have been watching your channel for over a year now. This video was very interesting and how Chris made that tool and got all of the bits out of the engine, to me is amazing. Thank you guys. 😊
Another great video Lads, Nothing beats a new bit of cardboard for laying on your back😂
Great video guys ! Proper old school engineering fix rather than just being a new part fitter
Really enjoyed this tutorial. Can't wait for the next part. I'm a bit of a mechanical dufus, but I find Chris's explanations really easy to understand.
Chris isn't just a fitter he's a mechanical genius👌
Chris is a damn fine engineer. You guys should be going into schools and sharing your knowledge to the next generation
Back when I was young I would have removed the head. I might not have thought of doing that. Well done to Chris for making a tool and it worked very well. Essential that all the bits be recovered and now we have a nice clean sump pan ready for reassembly. Love the video Rob and Chris take care both of you. 👍👍
Fascinating engineering with Chris providing a really interesting step by step guide with his skill shining through, ingenious 👍👍
All the comments echo my thoughts, brilliant explanations,filming,thought processes. When you work for yourself there is no idea input from work mates, it all has to come from experience and improvisation. Chris ALL that information put across so even us numpties can learn something in 15 mins, I do wonder if any of your inventions/ modifications don't go to plan. Loved this;
How wonderful to see such a great bit of repair. Imagine how many things in this world are thrown away when they could have been fixed.
Wow the amount of knowledge Chris has is amazing shame we live in a time where people throw away and buy new rather than repair. Young apprentice could learn a lot
You guys are top notch honestly a Monday ,Wednesday & Friday never goes by without me tuning in to watch you guys in action you work great as a team , Chris I just love the way you go out of your way to explain what you thinks happened and how you go in to great detail what your doing ,love all these great gadgets you make up to get jobs done, well done lads
Used to also create custom tools which ended up saving the day on multiple jobs but after you finish you swear blind you will never use them again and lose them only to need them again for the same job months later. Fantastic video and the mics work much better this time
Chris is one clever man. It's a pleasure to watch him work and explain his method in a clear and concise way. With what you both bring to the partnership it's a winner.
Always look forward on a Monday afternoon to the first video of the week, thanks again Chris and Rob 🙏👍🦾⚡☘️🍍🌻🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Love the mechanicals and the electronic diagnosis/resolutions,great vids, love em!
Gents, that was an engineering MasterClass - the tool was ingenious, and the explanation brilliant. 👏
Great video guys. Just when I think I've seen Chris at his best, he pulls another skill/rabbit out his bag of tricks. Brilliant!
Really love a bit of old school engineering from Chris. Beats buying a tool when you can make one.
Hi Chris and Rob, just done a similar job on a Corsa 16v petrol (1.4 I think) which had a broken valve spring. We made some brackets to lock the cam pulleys and chain in place, removed one cam, did very similar to you but instead of compressed air, we started by feeding a long cord, bit thicker than a shoelace through the spark plug hole, then turned the engine to trap the valve shut. I had heard about this from 'old school' mechanics, and thought it was a bit of a long shot, but it worked perfect.
Thank you for the channel and all the best.
Great Video Chris... to be honest didn't understand bits of it but great to watch a Car Surgeon save an engine. Such a knowledgeable guy, and improvising to make a tool to do the job. 👍👍
You have to admit that Chris is a genius, i love these videos guys, keep them coming. Absolutely brilliant.
My mate had similar piston damage when a couple of swirl flaps fell in on his bmw 🤦♂️ excellent engineering work chris, love seeing tools and set ups being built from scratch 👌
Good to see all the broken bits accounted for, can't wait to see it running again
Monday night, Dr. Chris's open engine surgery. Bravo fella, that was excellent.
Great video again! I have used string in the past, stuffed down a plug hole till cylinder has plenty in, then turn crank so valves pushe into the seats. Then pull string out when done.
Load of string down the hole - wind up to tdc... valve held.. Old often works. Plus you don't have to worry about leaks, with string.
Chris is a vital member of the team as well as yourself Rob......
Absolutely spot on where there's a will there is a way with out spending money. Just a bit of time and ingenuity
That collet fix is an old bushman's trick Rob. Chris learned how to do that from an old Bushman he met when he was off on safari up the Wadi Wadi in 1942.
Well done Chris ,that’s Proper Old School Engineering !👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Fascinating 2 videos guys. It's these types of videos that make your channel so great to watch.
Lads make sure you check the turbo oil feed. On the early engines there was a fine gauze filter where the oil feed pipe exited the block. This gauze filter would block up if oil changes were missed starving the turbo of oil.
Great video as always. And an excellent video showing what happens if you don't change your oil.
Chris is like the mcgyver of mechanics! Like the A - team rolled into one when they're trapped in a barn!
Nice work Rob and Chris,all the bits and needle rollers at the bottom of the sump, Chris did a great job with the hand made valve tool.
Nice work guys . Great to hear Chris talking his way through the fix. So pleased he called them by their original name , valve collets!! instead of keepers as some people refer to them as these days
Brilliant engineering skills Chris. That collett looked so fiddly
