    the sounds on here remind me of so many mornings in the 80s and 90s trying to get my ancient cortinas or escorts started so i could get to work!

      I can relate to this comment so much! My first car was a mk1 Cortina, my second car was a mk1 Escort, every morning, especially in Nz winter, my folks were serenaded by cranking and “start ya b%#tard!”, always when I was running late….

    • @bewildered5444

      Tell me about it! The bain of my life was a MK1 Fiesta, totally pissed me off.

      The soundtrack of my life! I have owned 1600E's continuously since 1982 , first one was an Amber Gold like this. Cold starting was never a Ford strong point so yes the sound of strained starters and slower and slower cranking and drained batteries. I've probably wasted 6 months of life sitting and turning the key in expectation!

      😂 I would sit in mine at 6am turning it over sometimes it would start others it wouldn't. Go to work thinking I must sort that out when I get home in the evening. Guess what? The bloody thing would start first go. Happy those days have gone. Looking back I can laugh now 😂

    I remember the Kent engines. A good simple engine that was relatively easy to work on and, if serviced regularly, would give little trouble. A fair performer too for the time.

    Hi from Durham guys 👋 👍 what a toppa it ran 👌 and for the fact you never opened carbon or hit Gill chamber the flaot needle and jet probe weren't even letting fuel thru so was just running on start fluid but yep it popped off👍 if you mixed a bottle of petrol with drop of 2 stroke oil and went straight down it's throat it might of been more productive under bottle feed tho great shout 👌 woohoo thanks for your time be safe and see you soon 👍 👋

    Love these start the old hen boxes up again, great to see Marcus is breathing new life into an ol hen box.
    This same old OHV ford 4Cyl engine was used for years right up to end of the 90s in fiestas and escorts with electronic ignition and then single point injection. Was pretty strong and reliable
    Reminds me of being an apprentice in a Ford Dealership working on the same engine OHV used in the later ford fiestas and the tappets needing set and sounding like a bag of spanners. 1 down set 8 6 down set 9. Me mechanic explaining the rule of "9" when setting valve clearences and then the engine sounding really quiet.
    Customer used to think they got an new engine , only took 30 mins to do.
    Good memories 27 years ago :)
