Starting my 1928 Buick
zhlédnutí 939Před rokem
After about 15 years in storage I purchased a 1928 Buick Standard Model 28-20 from the prior owner's daughter. It was sold as "not running" so the challenge is to sort out the early Buick engineering and get it started.

Verified no frozen components, cleaned the oil pan, refreshed all fluids, poured gas into the vacuum tank, cranked a few minutes and it started after sitting in storage for maybe 15 years.
Mercedes 107 Four Front Axle Bushing Renewal
zhlédnutí 5KPřed rokem
Collapsed front axle bushings, also known as the four front subframe bushings, causes major suspension and steering problems. These can easily be replaced without the MB shop manual 33-110 recommended special tools, engine hoist, brake hose disconnect, tie rod disconnect, nor shock removal. These 9 minutes show a two hour job with common tools, maybe double without a lift. Order a subframe bush...
Jaguar Convertible Pump Pressure Relief Valve Installation
zhlédnutí 4,3KPřed 3 lety
Prevent a hydraulic system failure on the Jaguar XK8 or XKR convertible by limiting the pump pressure to under 1000 PSI. The OEM or aftermarket hoses can rupture due to very high static pressure when the pump continues to run as the windows move electrically. Ruptured hoses are a two-day $1000 job, the valve is 2 hours at 1/3 the cost.

Very Helpful Thank You
With the stuff over the fuse box when did to put the fuse back
WTF😂
Do you know what size that attachment was to pull the chain tensioner guide rail? The tool I bought from Amazon doesn’t seem to have a big enough attachment.
For anyone reading this, the chain tensioner guide rail pin on my 1982 380sl was NOT threaded. Bought a 5/16" x 2.5" expanding concrete anchor bolt from the hardware store and used this to pull the pin. Once you expand it in the pin, it should slide out pretty easily.
I did It Like shown. Thank you.
Thanks for making such a thorough video! If you're still monitoring, just wondering: what were you adjusting at 28:50? Thanks!
these bumpers are so horrible
My friends think im crazy for keeping a bottle of “personal lubricant” in my cabinet. Glad im not the only one.
Have you worked on the front brakes? I’ve heard that the 560 has a four piston front caliper ?
Can you please provide the name of the manufacturer or how to construct the hoist and material used.
THe R107 top is heavier than the R129, but I nicked my shin on the R129 top.. I'll stick with my W124 E320 Convertible..
Many thanks Ken for all your videos. I just acquired a 1980 SLC and most bits need changing so your videos have been a goldmine, much clearer than the old Mec manuals. I changed the front bearings , one was still an original SKF, made in W Germany, the right side was probably changed at some point, TIM KIN bearings but surprisingly made in France. Also used your video for the subframe mounts, will use it for the cuppler and rear brakes. At only 80 k miles not sure I will need to do the timing chain but we’ll see. Any thanks a lot for all your most useful videos and tips. Be well and keep wrenching.
just done 350sl m116 engine , eBay tool broke , so used a slide hammer , we had everything forward of the engine out , for space . mark everything , photograph , and notes . take your time , don't rush . be aware of "whip" with the camshafts . check your timing marks when done , they will never be perfect ( they can't be) it isn't hard to do this job. holding pins have internal 6mm thread , to attach to slide hammer . AND Thank You autosick for the video .
Bro used a fucking torque wrench as a breaker bar. Lol
Geat job! You must feel really satisfied! What is the Mfg name and model # of the black hydralic sizzor jack at video 8:04 - 8:15. Thank You!
Very nice clip
Man!! First, very funny guy. I’m saving this video. I’m gonna do mine this winter
Very factual and easy to follow. Thankyou
Thanks for sharing this detailed video which enabled me to renew the 4 subframe mounting bushings on my W115.
What does a Job like that Cost with average Leather not the expensive stuff?
I am about ready to start my R107 subframe bushing replacement, and this is a great video. Thanks Mike
Can’t understand why a brand like Mercedes would use the cheapest materials for interior trim . I had a 107 and most of the trim pieces were broke. I now have an R129 and it has the same problems with broken trim.Instead of spending a small fortune , I repaired them myself.
Boyyyy, You lucked up on that one,, You cannot turn the 117 engine backwards or the timing chain will jump!
Where do I get that valve set up ?
im about to do mine! kind of a relief that is seems quite "easy going"
Love it! Thanks for sharing.
Sure would have been a BIG help to see you the winch / pulley setup is rigged.
Most ingenious!
I am getting ready to order new front rear seats head rests and armrests for my 1987 300d w124. My seats are in good condition but its the palomino color that turns pinkish. So going to replace the upholstery. Have you ever done w124 seats.
great video without all the usual BS consuming half the video
One question: I noticed that the old chain, as it's being pulled out is slack, is there any risk that it get disengaged at the crankshaft sprocket and jumps a tooth there?
Do you have to refill the torque converter or does it get oil from the gearbox?
Thanks, I will try this on my W123, same problem
The procedure in the Mercedes Service Manual uses a small slide hammer to remove the guide rail pins from the cylinder heads but I like the removal tool you got off eBay better.
Excellent job!
Hi, thanks for the video. I have a 1984 SL380 may i know what Bilstein part number suits the Front and Rear as i guess the Front is different that the SL560? appreciate your feedback.
is there a list of all SKU/replacement PNs for hat job? for a latest 380
This video you did was exceptional and although I have 82 380SL, this helped a lot! Thanks and great job!
Please, send me the instructions on constructing the lift frame. Thank you
Thanks, but turn off the radio next time🥴
Great!!! Leaves nothing uncovered.............
@autosick can you please tell me how you removed the pin for the tensioner guide? it has not threads, and nothing is grabbing to it.
it's got a 6mm thread inside it
@@baldricksimson lol a year late. But mine did not have the thread. It was a pain to remove it.
What type of transmission fluid did you use, Valvoline dexron 3?
Thanks for screwing up the video with shitty music
I have a 1973 450 sl what ATF should I use The manual say dexcron II but they dont make that any more what is the replacement?
Pretty good video three ERRORS that because they affect how brakes work are consequential could cause brake failure and you to crash if the brakes fail to work....#1. ONLY USE the PROPER GREASE to lube the caliper to pad slide areas. DO NOT USE WHEEL BEARING GREASE FOR THE CALIPER SLIDES ETC. WHEEL BEARING GREASE WILL ATTACK THE RUBBER COMPONENTS OF THE CALIPER AND SWELL THEM UP/RUIN THEM. Additionally the heat from braking will BAKE the wheel bearing grease and make it rock hard and keep the pad from sliding eventually......#2..Also there IS a procedure to adjust the wheel bearings the manual has that procedure.... SEE THE INCLUDED LINKS.... for the special lubricant for the slide areas and the other link to show how to properly adjust the run out for the front wheel bearings. #3. When FOOT BLEEDING the brakes, be sure NOT TO BOTTOM OUT THE BRAKE PEDAL.....DONT LET the brake pedal GO ALL THE WAY TO TOUCH THE FLOOR. The master cylinder will be ruined if you push its seals past the machined area where they ride into the unmachined area of the bore the seals for the master cylinder are housed in. Its unfortunately very easy to Push the brake pedal to far toward the floor when FOOT bleeding. When the pedal travels too far, the internal master cylinder seals will slide past the smooth machined area they are supposed to be in and instead travel past that smooth area onto the unmachined and rough area of the bore. The seals if rubbed on this unmachined area will then have tiny abrasions in the seals that may cause the pressure not to hold or in technical terms "by pass".. If you cant attach a power bleeder which is the best way to bleed the brakes (check the manual for the proper pressure to use with the power bleeder unit.... memory says its 10psi), In absence of a power bleeder, A trick to keep the brake pedal from traveling to far in pedal bleeding is to put a book that is about an inch and a half thick between the floorboard and the brake pedal so the pedal cant travel too far. The travel area for those seals under normal use is really not very far of an area and the machined area is only just longer than that. Be careful bleeding the brakes using the foot method.
